A Passion for Life

I am reminded in this quote, of a dear friend (a Scorpio sister) who passed away yesterday… She had a deep and abiding passion for life…

A passion for life is a passion for completeness.” ~ The Path To Love – Deepak Chopra

Time passes. Even as time and distance separate friends, the memories of a joy filled friendship never fade. Life is short… Live with passion.

International Women’s Day: Watch Us Stand Strong

Today is International Women’s Day. Given that, I wanted to share a poem I wrote in 1994:

Watch Us Stand Strong
 
Long have we walked 
Through the valley of our sadness, 
Searching for a way 
To end all the madness. 
Long have we toiled, 
Silent and unnoticed, 
Suppressing our knowledge 
And our gift to heal the world. 
We are large by number, 
We are small through the ages, 
There are few that have spoken, 
Few that dare to read 
Our pages. 
We are mothers, 
We are daughters, 
We are sisters, 
We are friends; 
We contain the lifeblood, 
And the passion 
Of all the universe 
In our souls. 
We are women, 
Full of knowledge, 
And beauty; 
The Queens of our planet. 
We are home now, 
Watch us stand strong, 
It is time to heal 
Our world.

c. Pamela J. Leavey 1994
