When Love Heals
Every
now
and then
~
love
stops
everything:
~
the
noise
~
the
chaos
~
the
pain;
~
Every
now
and then
~
love
shines
its
wondrous
light
on
~
even
the
darkest
corners
~
through
~
the
fear
~
the
loneliness
~
the
struggle;
~
Every
now
and then
~
love
surprises
us
~
with
something
rich
~
something
magnificent
~
something
extraordinary;
~
And
~
Every
now
and then
~
Love
shows us
~
its
astonishing
power
~
to
Heal.

A Look
Through The Healing Lens
of this special couple
I am delighted to introduce you to a most remarkable couple, Rachel and Bill, featured in the stunning image above. I was mesmerized by this photo when I first viewed it, and asked Rachel if I might display it in a post, and share her heartwarming story with my readers and friends here. She was honored.
Rachel and Bill met September 9, 2010 on a Facebook online support forum consisting of a group of patients coping with hip dysfunction, pain and surgical decisions. Slowly, and in spite of their respective pain and struggle, they discovered a magical connection across 800 miles. There were four months of letters before they met; And then, through the stressful rigors of surgery and a lengthy difficult rehabilitation, they became each other’s support, encouragement, motivation and hope. Their story is a beautiful testament to the fact that, every now and then, love shows up where we least expect it… and can, literally, change worlds. “He is my angel” were Rachel’s words to me this morning, after thanking me for seeing the magic, not only in this image, but in their love story.
I will never forget when I met Rachel on this same support forum, and we first chatted about our ongoing mission to overcome the hip problems and pain…we compared rehab strategies and surgical experiences. It was then that she told me of her new blossoming romance with Bill, one that was born of both physical pain and emotional challenge. I was deeply moved and uplifted, and now, I am doubly delighted to include each of you in the celebration, and beautiful spirit of their history.
With great joy, I dedicate this post to the beautiful union of Rachel and Bill.
They were blissfully married on September 8, 2012 .
Their story of love, healing and inspiration
has touched many lives.
Blessings and Love to them
Always!

The Finale
The time has
Come.
She
Composes
Herself
After a long
Gratifying
Day,
Slowly
Spiraling
Down
to
Commence
The Grand
Finale
of
Yet
Another
Stellar
Performance.
~
He
Waits
Beneath
the
Dimly
Lit
Golden
Sky
Anticipating
Her
Glorious
Descent,
Longing
For
The
Moment
He’s
Envisioned
All
Day.
~
The
Moment
She gracefully
Dips into
His
Fluid
Embrace;
~
The
Moment
She
Glides
Atop
the
Moist
Ripples
of
His
Unyielding
Crests;
~
The
Moment
He
Sizzles,
Feeling
the
Impassioned
Electric
Charge
of
Her
Heart’s
Fiery rays;
~
And
The
Moment
She Sets
Herself
Down
Tenderly
Over
His
Strong
Exhilarated
Body.
~
But
~
He
Reminds
Himself that
This
Ecstatic
Moment
Will be
Brief,
And then
Without warning
She will
Mysteriously
Vanish;
Fading
Into
Pure
Nothingness,
Disappearing
Below
Dusk’s
Horizon,
Beyond the
Sheer
Curtain
of
Night’s
Darkness,
Leaving behind
Only
Her
Faint
Glow
Warm
Mist
Radiant
Memory.
~
And he will
Harbor
This
Memory
Deep
Within
His
Core,
Breathing
Her
Luminous
Energy
In
and
Out
All
Night long
~
Secure
In the
Knowing
That with
Tomorrow’s
Dawn
~
She will
Shine
Upon
Him
Once More.

Walk With Me
Let’s take a walk
Come hold my
Hand
We’ll stroll along
Warm grains of
Sand;
Our toes sink in
And melt so
Deep
Smooth tumbled stones
Caress our
Feet;
We’ll step into
The breaking
Waves
Ionic breeze
Ignites our
Day;
And then you’ll stop
To stroke my
Hair
I’ll find your eyes
And hold the
Stare;
You’ll offer me a
Pink sea
Shell
I’ll hear the
Echoed truths it
Tells;
And when we reach
Our resting
Space
I’ll beg to kiss
Your salty
Face.

The One
In
the
Midnight
of my
yearning
I
Fall
Deeply
into
the
Clutches
of
~
The One
who
Promises to
Accept
me
unconditionally;
~
The One
who
will
Soothe my
body,
Purify my
soul,
and
Cleanse my
mind;
~
The One
who
masterfully
Reflects
my
light
and
Drowns
my
shadows.
~~~
I
Succumb
readily
to
~
The One
who
Heats
my
flesh
and
Circulates
my
blood;
~
The One
who
Immerses
me
in
a
Solid
Vessel
of
Intoxicating
Liquid
Bliss.
~~~
I surrender my
Whole
Self
to
~
The One
with
Power
To
Dilute
my
Pain
and
Invigorate
me
from
Head to
Toe,
Lavishly,
Sensually,
During
the
Darkest hour
of
Night;
Beneath the
Warm
Glow
of
Amber
Flames;
~~~
Always there
Always willing
Always waiting
Just
For
me;
~
The One
I
Love
~
My
Tub.

Observe
“When we step back and become the observer,
we witness life with clarity that otherwise, we could not achieve.
It is only as the observer that we are able to embrace it all.”
