Fred and Ginger

Fred and Ginger

I have always been amazed as I watched people
like Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers
and other dance couples perform.
It seems like they are all about
making the other look amazing.
Watching them dance has reminded me
that in my dance with my spouse,
I need to practice the moves
which maker her look good
on the dance floor of life.
We each are the Fred Astaire
to each other’s Ginger Rogers.
My newest question is to think about
what can I do to make her look amazing today.
How can I turn  her,
dip her,
and move her around
on the dance floor of life
in a way that makes us
look seamless and breathtaking.
Thinking about this brought me back
to when she was in school
and how I would make her look amazing
by editing her papers and projects.
Now it is the little things like
preparing meals that are healthier for her
encouraging her to release stress and tension
and celebrate the beauty of each day.
She makes me look awesome by
giving me love,
support and
believing in my dreams.
What if we all practiced our dance moves
with the ones we love?

Hospitality

There is a peace which surpasses understanding
when we open our hearts to strangers.
We want to draw a line between us and them.
We would rather turn away or disconnect,
then build a bridge.
We are focused on walls which separate,
then bridges that connect.

Hospitality is about building bridges.
It is about living in a way which opens us up
which challenges us to act out of love.
It is about taking the risk
and finding joy in the unknown.
It is about finding positive energy
where we sought not to look.

Hospitality
is about love,
light,
positive energy,
joy,
courage, and
love.
Hospitality is
intentional
and radical.
It is about seeing
the Divine
in the stranger
and the strange.

Apologizing

i woke up this morning
thinking about the person
who said I was nagging her
even though it was not my intent.
Sometimes we hurt people
whether we intend to or not.
Regardless the damage is the same.

Today I apologize because
I regret anytime I hurt someone
intentionally or not.
I apologize to all those I have hurt
and never knew I hurt.
I apologize for anything
and everything I have done
which has bought about
harm to anyone in my life.

I apologize to myself
for all the times I did not treat
my mind, body or soul
with the utmost respect.
I apologize to myself for the times
I did not stand up and speak out
when others were trying to harm me
I apologize to the world
for all the times I did not cry,
did not pray
and did not contribute to the healing
over global atrocities

if you are reading this
and I have hurt you
or you have been hurt
I apologize and pray
for your healing
