THE BREEZE AT DAWN
The breeze at dawn has secrets to tell you.
Don't go back to sleep
You must ask for what you really want.
Don't go back to sleep
People are going back and forth across the doorsill
where the two worlds touch
The door is round and open.
Don't go back to sleep
~Rumi~
The only reality is truth, love, the connection of all things, we are one, one heart, one soul, one mind. ?
I Choose Love ?
Entering the Shell
Love is alive ,
and someone borne along by it is more alive
than lions roaring or men in their fierce courage.
Bandits ambush others on the road.
They get wealth, but they stay in one place.
Lovers keep moving, never the same,
not for a second.
What makes others grieve, they enjoy.
When they look angry, do not believe their faces.
It is like spring lightning, a joke before the rain.
They chew thorns thoughtfully,
along with pasture grass.
Gazelle and lioness having dinner.
Love is invisible except here, in us.
Sometimes I praise love. Sometimes love praises me.
Love, a little shell somewhere
on the ocean floor, opens its mouth.
You and I and we, those imaginary beings,
enter the shell as a single drop of water.
~ Rumi ~
Keep knocking at the door
And joy will look out the window
To let you in.

Be Thankful - Gratitude is a powerful way to bring light into your heart and into the world.
"There is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so." ~ Shakespeare
"There are two ways of spreading light: to be the candle or the mirror that reflects it." ~ Edith Wharton
We are all angels, and there is nothing we cannot accomplish...by remembering that we ARE love, we can cultivate love, breed love, breathe love, be love ?
The connection between different existences of being is not as far away as perceived...believe and you shall see, keep your heart and eyes open.
"Heaven is a state of mind, not a location." ~ Wayne Dyer ?
"No matter who we are, no matter what our circumstances, our feelings and emotions are universal." ~Josh Groban
May you always remember that you can create in your life anything you desire, that you ARE worthy to receive all the happiness in our world, and to truly believe in your heart that you CAN ACTUALLY HAVE all that you dream.
There is beauty all around you if you look...
"Though we travel the world over to find the beautiful, we must carry it with us or find it not." ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson
You ARE beautiful and deserve to have the love that you crave for deep within your heart of hearts. Release the false illusion of NEEDING someone to make you happy. When you are happiness in physical form and are walking the path of living who you are, the soul that is perfect for you will be drawn into your light.
"People are constantly crossing over
The threshold of eternity.
The door is open
If you can stay awake."
~Rumi
You are truly loved, you are beautiful, you can have all that makes your soul fly and your heart sing.
"Why run around sprinkling holy water?
There’s an ocean inside you, and when you’re ready
You’ll drink."
~Kabir
~Gabriella
BEGIN
This is now. Now is. Don't postpone till then. Spend the spark of iron
on stone. Sit at the head of the table. Dip your spoon in the bowl. Seat yourself
next to your joy and have your awakened soul pour wine. Branches in the spring wind,
easy dance of jasmine and cypress. Cloth from green robes has been cut from pure
absence. You're the tailor, settled among his shop goods, quietly sewing.

About me:
I am an Intuitive Life Coach and I specialize in the area of Relationships. My goal is to help you connect with the truth inside yourself, to realize that you are worthy to receive the love you desire, and to take the steps to make it happen. Through my coaching, we will tap into the power of the Law of Attraction, for what you put out into the universe does come back to you. We will focus on thought patterns, and different ways of perceiving your reality. If you choose, you can change your current reality. Choice is the key.
I will help you to recognize your fears, to confront them, and to let go so that you may walk into the destiny that awaits you. Happiness, the life you want, the person you want to be is waiting, with arms open to embrace you. It is never too late to live the life you were meant to live, to be the person you have always been (even if that person was hidden deep within you), and/or to receive the love you thought had forsaken you. If you change your thoughts, the energy you are releasing, you can change your reality. Thoughts are the keys to opening your treasures.
I invite you to visit my website and plunge into the depths of the beauty that is you - let your light shine. Ultimately, your happiness is up to you.
My book is now available to purchase: You Find Your Soul Mate When You Let Go of Searching
This book will help you to connect with yourself, the essence of who you are and what it is that you want in your life as well as whom you want in your life. When you connect with that essence, you are at the place to remember your Soul Mate and draw that soul to you in the physical.

I am a little pencil in the hand of a writing God who is sending a love letter to the world. ~Mother Teresa
I am unique, a woman who is emotional, sensitive, introspective, understanding and caring. I like to have fun, always have a smile on my face. I find that smiling is contagious, and people who are around you will not help but smile too. I believe in the transforming power of kindness, words and love to heal. ♥
"Death is not the biggest fear we have; our biggest fear is taking the risk to be alive - the risk to be alive and express what we really are.” ~Don Miguel Ruiz
I am love, love is within me. You are love, love is within you. You are me as I am you as we are one. We are love, love is within you, love is within me. Love has always been a part of what makes us breathe. We are here to be that which we want to see in this world. I am love, love is within me. You are me as I am you as we are one. Within is a light that needs to be set free, choose to remember who you are…

"Imagine how much easier it would be for us to learn how to love if we began with a shared definition." ~ Bell Hooks
Love - to give without expecting anything in return, to always have a smile on your face, to allow yourself to see the angel that exists within everyone, to live your life in the energy of calmness, to show affection where it is lacking, to offer support where it is needed, to join alliances with others of like positive mind with the desire for change, healing, inspiration, living. To exist with ease, with your eyes and heart open to the intuitive voice within you, not being clouded with how others will perceive you.
"Do nothing but leave nothing undone." ~ Wayne Dyer
"Love is the only law to obey." ~ Ziggy Marley
"The end of fear is where we begin." ~ Goo Goo Dolls
"There are hundreds of languages in the world, but a smile speaks them all."
"Happiness is not having what you want. It is wanting what you have." ~Garth Brooks

Having flung aside the sword, there is nothing except the cup of love which I can offer to those who oppose me. ~ Gandhi
"When you have love in your heart, everyone around you will find joy in your presence." ~ Vickie Lynne Agie
Love is also within you. Look around you. Make a conscious effort to notice this truth...
The Essence of Love (written by yours truly) ;-)
"Love is what makes the world go round," the wise ones say. Love inspires, it teases, it embraces, we want it to stay. Love thrives, and causes growth, allows for transformation. Love draws us to the divine, and reminds us of our spiritual connection.
Love anticipates all that is beautiful, requires its essence. Love enfolds us within its wings, makes known its presence. There is no escaping this truth: love is what makes us who we are. Love is what we long for, we will not stop until we hold it within our hearts. Love is natural, love is created without our awareness, it is what we know.
Love is profound, love allows us to be happy with ourselves, comforted by the afterglow of its reality.
Love is within you, love is within me, love is connecting us, it has always been our history.
Love is our future, it is our present, it is all that we are made of, it will guide us into eternity.
Love is our past, it is existing within each moment, it is what beats within our breast, leading us to ecstasy.
Love will never cease its persistence, it is our calling, it is our peace, pushing us into destiny.
Listen when you hear its voice, it may be soft, it may be a whisper, but it is strong, it will be clear.
Love will remain when you give up, it will remind you that you cannot be anything other than itself.
Love is within you, love is within me, love is connecting us, it has always been our history.
Listen when you hear its voice, it may be quiet, it may be gentle, but it is there, it is in front of you.
Love reminds you always, that it has never forsaken you, it is comfort, it is true.
You may be blind, you may not believe it, though love will never disappear.
Listen to the wisdom that lives within silence, it is loves' home, it is where we release fear.
Love is within you, love is within me, love is connecting us, it has always been our history.
Who I'd like to meet:
I would like to meet kindred spirits that are looking to find friends to share thoughts (creative and in depth), tears (happy and sad), laughter (small and encompassing), likes and dislikes. I'm really out to add to myself as a soul having a human experience here on earth and would like to do the same in return. We are constantly growing, learning, changing. and reshaping who we are. If you would like to get to know me better, don't hesitate to contact me. Let's start a friendship...

Awake, my heart
Your master is near.
Run to the beloved
so close by your drowsy head.
Having slept for ages without slumber,
Isn’t this the morning to wake up?

The Summer Solstice - The solstice begins June 21, 2010 @ 11:43 GMT.
In the northern hemisphere, the longest day of the year (near June 22) when the Sun is farthest north. The declination of the Sun on the (northern) Summer Solstice is known as the Tropic of Cancer. The Summer Solstice is the longest day of the year, respectively, in the sense that the length of time elapsed between sunrise and sunset on this day is a maximum for the year.
The Summer Solstice marks the first day of the season of Summer in the northern hemisphere.
This ritual is used to complete external physical manifestation and all energies are about exerting the will. In ancient times it was considered a time of fullness of life, worldly blessings and celebration. Not much has changed today in how we look at summer. We see it as a time of vacations, play, celebration, fun, joviality, parties, and barbecues with family and friends at the beach or park. Days are longer which gives us more time to enjoy the sun and soak in it's warmth.
The Summer Solstice celebrates the joy, warmth and laughter of summer; and God's power. The beginning of summer repr

As I laid down these feelings passionately upon my guitar, I was sending to you their messages knowing you'd be listening to them from near and from afar. Playing these beautifully flowing notes over and over within my mind, I was trying to capture within the melody the magic that surrounds you that I believe I have now been able to find. As it seems to me like it’s always been there through at least most of your life while keeping you constantly lonely and seemingly wasting so much of your life’s precious time.
Where’s the confident girl you used to be, the one with all of the style that everyone could see. Don’t you know on the inside you’re still the same, so put on that smile again and get back in the game….
Though it seems to me like the mystery of all of your sorrows that seem to be beyond what I can see, I do know you’re in there somewhere, and now it’s up to the words in my song to try and finally set you free. As well as finding your smile that’s always trying so hard to hide, that has sadly started to unwind with such little happiness left for you inside, and now you’ve become so lost that tranquility and serenity have now become almost impossible for your lonely heart to find....
Where’s the confident girl you used to be, the one with all of the style that everyone could see. Don’t you know on the inside you’re still the same, so put on that smile again and get back in the game….
Laying down on paper are the gentle notes as well as the softly spoken words that wil
Tell me what it is you're thinking if you're still deep inside believing, that all of the wasted nights you've now spent alone, were only being shared with whom you were dreaming, and the countless nights you spent staring at the phone. Share with me this endless vision so through my open heart I can now be there to listen, it's your own decision to be guided by this blind ambition, or remain there doing nothing but sitting there all alone and constantly wishing. Everyone holds deep inside all of the answers to the questions that we never seem to find, and after all, as we build our own walls, it's our smiles that always get left behind. It's time you start to realize that through everyone else’s eyes, you're as beautiful as the wings of a delicate little Butterfly, as it spreads it's lovely wings while flying towards the sky.... Believe that you are a connoisseur whose knowledge of love can open any door, and soon you'll find yourself smiling, and you'll be lonely never more.... ~Nick Nichols~
"The dream within you"
Within our smiles we close our eyes and wish for all of our dreams to come true, when all along as you looked in the mirror the dream has always been you. So when you open your eyes and look up to the skies, take a good look at the world all around you, for it should come as no surprise, just like the sun every morning will certainly rise, it's something you should have already knew, now it‘s all up to you.... ~Nick Nichols~
Good evening my lovely friend, thanks for the beautiful images as well as the kind words that you left as comments to adorn my world.... Many smiles to you always, I hope you enjoy both of the poems.... :) ~Nick~
I watch the colorful leaves as they dance the autumn breeze, seemingly unaware of the up and coming freeze. They seem so happy and so content as they hang out with the other trees. I wonder if they are looking back at me, and if so, what do you think they see? They seem so alive, so passive, yet so free, not concerned about tomorrow, or their life's destiny. Soon their branches will release them, floating away into the air, not knowing the fate that awaits them, leaving them lonely, cold, and scared. Now that the branches are alone, cold, and bare, with seemingly nothing left for them to share, I come back to this place quite often, letting them know how much I still care. ~Nick Nichols~
“Somehow Touch And Feel”
Dream, dream along with me, don't be afraid of what you are feeling, don't be afraid of what your watering eyes can't see.... For I am here, and sense your inner thoughts to be real, so let go of this frustration that I believe you now feel, and I'll guide your imagination to a vision you can somehow touch and feel.... Believe, believe beyond what you believe your eyes can see, don't be afraid of the truth for which you speak, don't be afraid to search for your destiny.... If serenity is really what you believe you now seek, then believe in yourself and you'll find your true identity.... For I am here, and I sense your inner thoughts to be real, so let go of this frustration that I believe you now feel, and I'll guide your imagination to a vision you can somehow touch and feel.... Drift away, drift away now that your lonely heart's been set free, don't be afraid to believe in the beauty that now your open eyes can see, don't be afraid of the smiles that surround you, because one of them might be me, one of them might be me, maybe it's always been me, you just had to open your pretty eyes to have the chance to see, that maybe one of them was
Looking back on this special day, trying not to let any tears get in my way, I will always know why this special day is simply called Mother’s day. It’s a celebration of all life, and can you think of a prettier month to honor all of the Moms everywhere with. Mom’s that are still here with us as well as our Mom’s that are now gone, honoring them in the beautiful month of May, only needing their smiles to be remembered by their endless love that was or still is, always being portrayed. When ever you need someone close to your heart to hear you speak or just to hear you and hold you tight as you cry, a Mom will be their for you to listen without even needing to know the question as to the reasons why. Their love to their Children is always such an unconditional love, warring invisible wings as if they came from somewhere so beautiful and so peaceful, where there’s only thoughts of endless love. With their wings always around us to help in trying to be always protecting us, their love could have only come from Heaven, a place somewhere way beyond the stars up above, and so many out there forget to let them know just how they feel while they still can while they‘re still here alive and with us. So many forget to show them and tell them how grateful we are and how thoughtful they are and always seem to be, even when their own heart’s inside and their own souls appear to be crying, they still always wipe away their tears so they can find a way to help us to once again forget about all of our own pain inside so that we can dry our tears and once again find ourselves grinning and smiling. We can now once again open our own eyes and see, let alone, have the chance to once again smile because thanks to our Moms, we’re once again pain free, and as happy as can be…. Have a great weekend and enjoy your day.... I hope you like the poem, many smiles to you as well, ~Nick~
