CELEBRATE EVERYTHING
Celebrate Your Life Exactly as it Is. Be grateful for all of it. See the blessings in everything. Consider the neutrality of what everything means. Gently experience the joy of your tiny successes, precious moments of pure release through simple celebration.
AWAKEN: THE JOYFUL HEART
There is a joyful light within all of us, connected to all that is. Enjoy the fullness of imaginal possibility of this inner power. Celebrate all the wonders spread before you. Light the darkness like the lightning bugs who come out at night to take the flight of the soul. Fly like an eagle, as you soar through the bright blue skies above the fray of your life giving yourself a Google earth view. Be in your joy. Be in your light. Be what you came here to do.
REMEMBER: LOVE IS THE WAY
Celebrate everything. Enjoy the pleasant exercise of joy. Relax, enjoy and celebrate with cupcakes or hugs or smiles or everything that comes your way. Find ways to be in balance with all you do. Find the little things to be grateful for. Align in your celebration of who you are and why you are here and be a walking testament to thriving.

LOVE ACTIVISM 💚🌱✨ A WAY FOR SWITCH
The necessary work to reclaim the earth for good is ongoing. It is sometimes tedious, it is sometimes depressing, it moves and stops, it comes in fits and starts, it is an experiment of persistence and determination. It requires magical thinking and synchronicity. It is part of the wonder and being-ingness of the earth's energies. We come into consciousness to be in balance with all that is. Grateful for the invitation from The BirdHouse Organization and all the efforts, love and support they extend of their gifts, talents and energies.
First of what is hoped to be many more:

Indigenous Peoples Day
Sunday, October 9, 2022

12400 Big Tujunga Canyon Rd.,
Tujunga, CA 91042
Intro from the program:
We welcome you to Big Tujunga (Tuxu), the land of the Old Woman. We come together today to honor the land and the Indigenous Peoples who have cared for the land since time immemorial. As residents, we share the responsibility to care for and support the well being of our relatives: plants, animals, water, sun, all creation. As guests on this un-ceded land, we honor all Indigenous Peoples and hold in high regard their values, cultures, contributions, knowledge, imagination, and resilience.
Keep this shared space clean.
Listen with your heart.
Be a vessel for loving action.
Stewards of the land, working with the Cities, County, State to return and repair lands. Corporations need to heed the way through. This site reclaimed to Tongva Stewardship was a former dumping site for toxic institutional waste. Now. It begins a path through to nourishment, integrity and restoration. Great oaks have been planted, love has returned and this day was a first gathering in celebration, remembrance and space for the ancestors to feel peace and offer their wisdom. The work of planting an additional 800 oaks is ongoing. Please consider supporting, uplifting and joining all efforts committed to the necessary work.
We, together, are transforming systems to engage, repair, restore new systems that are connected that are part of all living things, including, plants, rocks, animals, all living things embracing an ecological renaissance.

Consider where you are called to spend time and energy. How are you demonstrating love. What are you giving back so we all can experience a healed, whole, loving world? Is there more that you can do. Is there something you can give. Will you be for healing.
Love, Mel
