For those of us lucky enough to have come of age in New Orleans -- even more than for the tourist who falls for her instantly -- the decadent majesty of the city is like a forbidden love. You want desperately to explain the depths of your enchantment, but you know in your heart that others will acknowledge it merely as an easy infatuation or a passing fling. . . How could they ever understand the depth of your passion? How could they understand your love for a city in which life itself is an art form and the poorest, least privileged inhabitant a knowledgeable artist? [ the washington post ]
"She is a New Orleans girl and New Orleans girls never live anywhere else, and even if they do, They always come back, That's just the way it is."
Namaste.. I honor the place in you in which the entire universe dwells. I honor the place in you, which is of Love, of Truth, of Light, and of Peace. When you are in that place in you... and I am in that place in me, We are One.

"If the sun refused to shine, I would still be loving you. When mountains crumble to the sea, there will still be you and me.Kind woman, I give you my all; Kind woman, nothing more.Little drops of rain whisper of the pain, tears of loves lost in the days gone by. My love is strong, with you there is no wrong, together we shall go until we die. My, my, my. An inspiration is what you are to me, inspiration, look... see.And so today, my world it smiles, your hand in mine, we walk the miles, Thanks to you it will be done, for you to me are the only one. Happiness, no more to be said, happiness....I'm glad. If the sun refused to shine, I would still be loving you Mountains crumble to the sea, there will still be you and me"
Our greatest fear is not that we are inadequate, but that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that frightens us.We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, handsome, talented and fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God.Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you.We were born to make manifest the glory of God within us. It is not just in some; it is in everyone. And, as we let our own light shine, we consciously give other people permission to do the same.As we are liberated from our fear, our presence automatically liberates others.
