where spirits play

Thank you for your kind words Cathy, it is a very peaceful place. Seamus loved it too and his ashes were scattered near here. Eivor and Pearl love running into this part of the burn and it is as if they know his spirit is here too. I hope you are having a good day and much love to you and Finn :o) xxx

SMiLes.. my Friend
For i Love to Feel
And Sense
my five
toe paws
as spirit roots
too through sand
and creeks too.. connecting
me to Mother Earth’s Oxytocin
Receptors on Soul of Feet
Feeling all
Love
Exploring
Dance And Song bRinGs so much more to
Dog Paws aLive as Human Roots now too..
oh yeaH.. and i caught the Linguist Roots now
In Your New About Line too.. Just the Word Linguist
Brings back Memories of Anthropology Classes to me..
Wow.. 34 years ago seems like yesterday digging as
Research Associate in Archeology.. Finding bits
of carbon and bone fragments
from ancestral subsistence
meals.. rarely an arrow
head and then lab
bagging and labeling
bags of evidence in endless
Hours of Dig and Bore.. hehe..
all the time then understanding no possibility
of making any livelihood money at that.. best lesson of all
my friend.. patience for the job at hand making the best of what is now
as a
joy
of life
set free as light..
it’s true.. verbal language
is innate and can be put into
Cultural Words instinctually as Song
Dance Flows as well aLive intuitively

Thank you my FRiEnD and so happy you can enjoy life set free as light 💜 I studied Applied Linguistics later in life to support people affected by crime and help them find their voice again after trauma. It was very rewarding work and done on a not-for-profit basis. Free flow of words is something I always enjoy seeing as it is the healthiest way to be ☺💖 xxx

sMiLes my friEnd for sure you
are a giver and nurturer in the
best way to do it all non-profit
as such.. lovely to live life
and love others
with no
concern
to the rat
race of profits
my friend in all
the modern ways
that comes too..
particularly
in online
outreaches
for commercials
that rise above love..
and truly language can
be healing when connected
back to emotion holding positive
in behavioral cognitive therapy too
but still my favorite healing practice
is both dance and martial arts in free verse
style too.. and sure words words words full
of life
in
organic flow..:)
