The Aspen Grove

This is a place for me to post my journal writings, poems and artwork. This is a place for me to share my path with other cyber warriors and healers. I also post beautiful images that come to me and resonate with the Aspen Grove.

Journal Entry - Living Life to Love

My life is really intense this year, but I don't know that I would have it any other way. I'm certainly never bored. I struggle, I laugh, I connect with people like I have never connected before. I yearn for deeper connections, thus I work on my shit. I go to hypnotherapy. I go for Jin Shin Jyutsu. I read self help books. I go to spiritual retreats. I spend a lot of time alone outside. (never really alone). I yearn to tell people how much I love them. I do get to do that some, but not with everyone that I want, as not all of my peeps are comfortable receiving statements of love. I have been receiving more love and compassion this year. I am very open to that now. It helps sooth the pain I regularly experience with my openness to vulnerability. I do look forward to a lot of this extreme emotional stuff to simmer down. It may when I get stronger. Which I am. I am learning to trust others to help me through life. tis so much more rewarding to hurdle this stuff with the support of my tribe. I am willing to learn and take these hits for the team. Healing for me helps heal for all. I love therefore I am loved. Its amazing.

All the Way - by Frank Sinatra.

All The Way

When somebody loves you
It's no good unless he loves you all the way
Happy to be near you
When you need someone to cheer you all the way

Taller than the tallest tree is
That's how it's got to feel
Deeper than the deep blue sea is
That's how deep it goes if it's real

When somebody needs you
It's no good unless he needs you all the way
Through the good or lean years
And for all the in-between years come what may

Who knows where the road will lead us
Only a fool would say
But if you'll let me love you
It's for sure I'm gonna love you all the way all the way

Adults can color also!

I got myself some crayons and a coloring book today. I need something to do that is enjoyable on a nearly primal level. I suck at drawing so no Zentangle for me. When I am having anxiety? I'm going to color in my coloring book. Mock me if you want, but it's better than  Xanax.

Temporarily removed my journal entry

I temporarily removed this weeks journal entry. After today's hypnosis I feel like a lot of my belly aching could hurt feelings more than it would help me to blog it. I may edit it and put it back online. 
   Blogging always walks a line right? Yes I want to document my growth and insights, but when the journey involves another person? Then I certainly want to protect their privacy.  It's not about the other person really, except for their position as my Mirror. 
   I'm growing and evolving at such an accelerated rate, that I do want to share what I'm learning. I'm not comfortable calling myself a role model? But perhaps I can be that to someone... That would be cool. 
   Well, dating is Not easy. At least not for me. I look forward to Never dating again. 
I guess for any of you that already read this weeks journal entry? Let's say for now that I resolved a lot of those very issues tonight, with Grace's help. Damn she's good! And I love hypnotherapy. Helps me get the hard stuff wipped into place. 
   For now, I will sign off and say that I am one lucky lady to be dating the wonderful man that has such patience for a newly awakened woman on fire. 

Yes, what She said

I Burn - lyrics by The Toadies

Driftin' upward
Gently lifting
Lazy on the wind

Rollin' over
Turnin' slowly
Beginning and the end

Fire is bright
Fire is clean
Never so alive

Smoke is freedom
Flame is mercy
I am free tonight

And I burn
I burn

Stoke the embers
Cleanse the spirit
A prayer in every spark

Feel the lick of
Bad religion
The finish and the start

In the beginning
We were smarter
'n flame was heaven-sent

Through the ages
We got stupid
Now we must repent

And I burn
I burn

Save the ashes
For reminders
Stony things remain

Tooth and bone
unimpressive
I have left these things

Because fire is bright
Fire is clean
efficient and divine

Tooth and bone
Charms and dolls
I am free tonight

I BURN
THE AIR
YOU BREATHE

I BURN
THE AIR
YOU BREATHE

I BURN
THE AIR
YOU BREATHE

I burn
I burn
I burn
I burn

Love Poem to the Moon


Moon moon
To be in tune 
with you my love 
with you my love

Shine, shine 
to be mine
Bright my love
Bright my love

Light my path
For where to tread
Light my love
Light my love

Forever there
In the night
Remember my love
Remember my love

Whether New or Full
You guide my heart
Tonight my love
Tonight my love

Within just a hundred steps.


I'm walking around still on Race street. I'm kinda freaking out, but in a good way. Synchronisity is leading me on a treasure hunt today. I stopped at the Castle Marnie, mini library, and thought what the heck? I'll see if a book jumps out at me. This one did. 


Synchronisity full on

Ok, so I wrote a new chapter for my book this morning. I started to take a walk and the first house I come to is called the Lighthouse Creative Writing Workshops. I went inside and picked up an armful of brochures and info. Now I'm standing outside kind of freaking on the Synchronisity. At some point my brain should catch up. Wow!
