CHAPTER 1
Sacred Gifts
Divine light
Brought me down
To a land of confusion,
Distress, and illusion.
Lost in the shadows
Of forgotten truth,
I scrambled through
Each moment,
Gripping and searching
With my rambling mind,
In the past and
In the future,
Yet I was always held
In this precious breath
Of allowance and awareness
With love and purity.
So now I dance,
This light that I am
Humbled and strengthened,
Surrendered and grateful.
Shedding the chains And
guided by my heart, I
unwrap the sacred gifts
And share with you this love.
Rise and Shine
Wake up, sweet children. It's a new day.
New beginnings! What adventure shall we go on today?!
Take in a deep breath. Mm.
Fill your heart with love.
Fill your body with goodness.
Exhale everything that no longer serves you.
Relax. Here, you are safe, loved.
Feel your way through the day.
Let your emotions flow with awareness.
Let the light inspire you.
Let the darkness invite you to open up and cleanse.
And if you stumble, suspend yourself right there.
Look up to the heavens! Look down to earth.
Ask for help.
Ask for guidance.
Ask for ease and grace
For this world is ours to cherish.
We've just learned wrong ways.
We've just forgotten.
We are remembering, sweet children.
Let's bring purity and joy back so we can play.
Receive the gift that you are.
Claim it. Be it.
Ready to rise and shine?!
In This Moment
In the depth of nothing
Stirs the possibility
Of everything.
In the breath of now
Exists the power
Of the universe.
In the acceptance of life
Continues the flow
Of the divine.
In the grounding of the self
Lies the truth
Of oneness.
Spell
Morning broke
The spell
Of the night.
No excuses
Are needed
On the new day,
For the past
Is gone,
And today remains
To be lived,
Breathed, and
Braved again.
Wake up!
Activated
The vortex of change
Has been activated,
And the escape button
Has been destroyed.
Carry on, warrior!
Journey on to the core,
Where silence showers you
With peace and wisdom.
Alchemy
As I hold my mind in a resting space,
The magic channels through.
Suspended in each moment,
The whispers from another realm
Carry through with love to you.
I do not know where it comes from,
Yet I do know that it is pure and blessed.
A chance to be one with the mystery,
Embraced every night and day,
Carries me with love to you.
My Wish
My greatest desire is to be
An expression of pure love.
When we claim it soul powerfully,
We bring heaven down to earth.
To remember and know
That through sweet surrender
We become the one
We've been waiting for.
To walk on this earth,
Healing her with each breath.
To become sovereign
And royal in our commands,
Inviting all that is sacred
To join us in this dance,
Creating prosperity,
Love, and light for all.
That is my wish,
And I share it with you.
Divine Formula
Shine like the sun waking up and
stretching out into the infinite horizon.
Drop the weight,
the stress,
the drama,
the shields,
the struggle.
Let go of the past.
Let go of the future.
Breathe in the light.
Breathe out limitations.
Reclaim your divine existence.
Giggle your sparkly joy without restraint.
Be the love that you are so
purely. As I hold you in my heart
so dearly,
I choose you.
I am you.
Her Secret
Her secret is so juicy and alive
That you might
Want to chase her,
If only for a little while,
To roll in the waves of flow,
And to be tickled by the vibes
Of that child of light,
Fresh out of the tunnel.
Her secret
Is what you already know.
You've just forgotten!
Golden Goddess
"I'm on fire!"
Said the girl
Scarred with flames,
Courageous in her fight.
As the heat burnt through
To expose her soul,
She emerged transformed — a goddess,
Shining her light of gold.
"I'm on fire!"
Said the woman
Covered in flames,
Ready to take flight.
Disarming
The walls are crumbling,
Tired of holding themselves
In isolation and struggle.
The rain pours down,
And the water floods
The cracks of uncertainty.
The winds are curious
And find their way
Through each opportunity.
The moon beams steadily,
Lighting up the darkness
And casting shadows of mystery.
And I sit here
Grateful and tired,
Putting my sword down.
Choosing Love
Streaming tears
Of nothing,
Just illusion tainting
My vision.
I choke and sob
For the lost joy
And the dust
That embittered my taste.
In this now, I ask for
Deep clearing,
As I choose
The light of love.
Vessel
Oh the human experience ...
Even when there is more clarity,
We are not above it.
We're still a part of it.
The more love and compassion we attain,
The more power and awareness we are gifted.
Yet the control is no longer there.
The agenda drops, and we flow from a space,
Beyond the mind,
Beyond needing,
Beyond judgment,
To peace and joy!
For all that arises
Is perfectly in sync
With the next unraveling.
Humility and surrender,
Awe and wonder,
Are the kings and queens,
The magicians of each moment.
I bow to the light.
I accept to be
A vessel for thee.
Surrender
Choking
At the very bottom
With a grip on my life.
Do I fight
And keep struggling
In the mud of yesterday?
Or do I melt, surrendering
Into the field of light,
Where a new canvas is waiting?
Sadness and joy are a breath away.
As I allow the tears to flow,
The opening of my heart grows.
And I hold myself where I am:
Love and light
In this now.
Open to Receive
Take a walk to
The other side
Of the rainbow.
Take a look to
See beyond
The apparent reality.
Take a breath to
Still yourself
And find clarity.
Take a moment to
Thank yourself
For all that you do.
Why?
Because I love you.
Fresh Start
At the end
Of the journey,
There is nothing
To prove,
For we are
Always
That
Which I am,
Dancing to
This song
Of eternal
Joy and bliss,
Being
In the now
Of play and
Divine flow.
So, do I go deep into
This cosmic
Party of
Transformation,
Or do I stay and resist,
And complain,
And suffer,
The pain
Of illusion?
Such confusion!
I let go
And am renewed.
It is always the end.
And I begin
Afresh
On this new inspired day.
Contrast
It is in the darkness that we desire the light.
It is in the sunshine that we beg for shade.
It is in forgetting that we shield ourselves from our pain.
It is in loving that we begin again;
To live the life we deserve to breathe.
To be the one we enjoy to be.
Contrast is the teacher;
Love, the ultimate preacher.
You, me, we,
One again.
Won today.
Collapsing
Fragments of polarity
Painted as positive or negative,
Distracting our life from
The purity of expression.
Time to say goodbye, shattered self,
Collapsing into the ocean of oneness.
I am forever free and
Endlessly alive!
Beyond the Zone
I am the Divine in disguise,
Waiting for you to find me
In the ray of light,
For the shadow cast upon you
Is simply a breath away
From the blessed garden.
Step outside your comfort zone
To be stripped of the cobwebs
And stand raw in the thunder of truth.
Lightning
A line crossed my mind.
It was the damp sensation
Of a misconstrued thought.
The repeating storms of life.
In strife, I pondered my options,
And anxiety took hold of my peace.
By grace, I was hit by lightning,
The kind that wakes you into clarity,
And the shadows of the past dissolve,
Leaving way for a clear pasture
Where the heart can roam free
And the wings stretch out with delight.
What Am I?
I am that space of everything that allows you
To paint the masterpiece of your dreams.
I am the space of possibility
Where you can be your heart's desire.
I am here. There. In you. Without you.
Him. Her. Your child. Your lover. Your mother.
Your brother. The stranger. And the other.
I am it all.
I am the breath.
I am the fire.
I am that I am in truth.
Unchanging.
Enabling.
Supporting.
Guiding.
Inviting.
I am the experience,
The experiencer,
The cosmic dancer,
That which remembers what was once forgotten,
That which loves where hate lived,
That which forgives what once was rejected,
That which sings after it was muted,
That which creates where destruction once ruled,
That which contemplates where it was judged.
The womb of creation,
The black hole of existence.
Twirling galaxies of magical dust
Dancing in sync with the life within.
Endless. Rest here ...
For it is all there is.
I Am
"What are you?" asks the reflection.
I can't say.
What I do know is what I'm not:
Not this body,
Not my thoughts,
Not even what you think I am.
I'm not that.
Oh! Wait ... YES.
I am love.
Undefined
I am undefined,
Free,
Beyond judgment,
Detached from right or wrong,
Light and dark,
Boundless and beyond definition,
Acknowledging the shades of life,
Experiencing each moment,
Aware of my savory emotions,
Surrendering them to Source.
Even when I stand naked in Truth,
The highs and the lows
Are just an integral part
Of this human adventure,
For we are all one
On this journey of exploration.
Embracing the shadows with our heart,
The path floods and all is light.
Surrender Again
I surrender my mind
To higher wisdom.
I surrender my doing
To inspired action.
I surrender my body
To my crystalline structure.
I surrender this moment
To the joy of being.
I surrender my ego
To the humility of grace.
I surrender my life
To the one I am.
Fields of Gold
Love is the altar of life,
And what overflows from it
Is the abundance
Of creation.
When things and work
Become our masters,
We enslave ourselves,
Depleting our true riches.
So follow that blazing heart
Into the fire of now.
Then, the fields of gold
Will appear.
True Life
Deep, deep within our soul
Is the key to transformation,
Allowing us to believe and to know
That all answers we already hold.
The we is the issue
We must first resolve,
For 'who' or 'what' makes it
Possible for us to evolve.
When we understand,
When our hearts are aligned,
Then we end the journey.
Alas, a new humankind!
Life has begun again,
This time true.
Oh, I am very grateful.
Yes. You can be too.
The Mystery
So we live among the blind
And breathe out wisdom,
Guided by our hearts
And the humility of service.
We are one, and yet the puzzle
Pieces are awkward at best
And awakening is far for most
In the predawn of earth.
Light bewitches
The shadows of duality
To unravel the mystery
Of being love.
Dying to Live
Where is the joy that blossomed in my heart?
Where is the passion that fueled my mornings?
Where is the compassion that held you in the light?
Where is the spirit that opened doors to other universes?
Where is the hunger for truth and the thirst for flow?
Dying
In this torment of deep emotions and flooding dreams,
In the false hopes of yesterday and the insignificant cheers of
disappearing friends,
In the pitless hole of disappointment and the bleeding soul betrayed
by illusion,
In the deafening silence of indifference.
Vanished into the desert of lack,
Burning in the ashes of the unforgiving fire,
Scattered by the winds of change,
And dampened by the incessant tides.
Buried forever
Into the womb of the mother,
And then her love and warmth
Sprouts these seeds,
Rebirthing
Deeper love,
Bubbling joy,
Burning passion,
Bold truth,
Sensual flow,
Sweet compassion.
And we see that all the struggles were
Moments of transformation.
The discomfort of growth
Was well worth the
Glory of being.
The Breath of Death
Death is coming
to this known life,
as I can no longer
take another
stagnant breath.
Death is welcome,
as I know life
has a lighter rhythm
and another,
richer breath.
Death is home,
when I know life
as a long letting go
for another
blessed breath.
To fully live,
we die to untruth.
With that sovereign breath
we are reborn —
free.
The Mountain
I feel wild like a rugged mountain ...
That has stood firm through hurricanes,
Taken a deep breath through floods,
Held the fire within during dark days,
Crumbled with the earthquakes, and
Shed tears with the melting icecaps
And raging thunderstorms,
To then erupt with passion
And birth higher grounds,
Holding space for new life
And promising beginnings.
Flame
While heaven rains down blessings,
Earth nurtures our essence.
Still we complain of loss and confusion,
Disconnected from our source.
Focused on a derailed world,
Not knowing what we're worth,
We blame them!
We blame him.
We blame someone over there ...
Flame! Flame
Is the better word.
Focus on the flame within.
Then we will win
The universe of love.
Fear Not
We are afraid to show our pain,
Thinking we will be rejected.
We are afraid to share our struggles,
Believing we will lose our capacity to inspire.
We are afraid to truly love another,
Believing something will be taken away from us.
We are afraid to feel weakness,
Thinking we will be trampled upon.
We are afraid to let go and cry,
Believing it to be a useless experience.
In fact, it is our raw imperfections
That make us lovable and approachable.
It is the absence of fear
That makes us truly live.
So, I vow to face all fears
And embrace my humanity.
Balcony
Silence can hear,
Feel, and know what
Noise and distraction
Will never comprehend.
Enjoying the bliss of home
And the winding journey
To the ever present
Space within.
Crickets and cars,
Stars and lights,
Vibrant on this stage.
All divine in this Now.
Infection
Innocence was slashed
Into an infected wound,
And the hope of tomorrow
Became the disgust of betrayal.
Seduced by the dark
Corners of isolation,
She withered away
Into a ball of abandonment.
Falling down the cliff
Of inspired heights,
She whispered one last
Plea for help!
The universe heard clearly
That cry from this child of life,
And swooped down
With a loving hand,
Giving way to warmth
And to a spark of clarity
That snapped her back
Into the breath of Now.
Empowered in this present,
She shook off the shadows
And spread her wings
To take flight.
Love Is
Waking up with awe and gratitude
Even when the alarm is piercing.
Smelling the fragrant roses
Through the fertilizer.
Smiling with twinkling eyes
When others still don't get you.
Gently purring out each exhalation
When there's only you to hold.
Being kissed by the setting sun
When the boat has sailed away,
And caressed by the evening breeze
When you've lost your sweater.
Going to sleep, snuggled and held
When the bed is cold.
Trusting all is good
When all is raw.
Love is
The fabric of life.
Return to love
And it fully blossoms.
Love is ...
Waking up with awe and gratitude
As you feel your sweetheart
Smelling the fragrant roses
That you picked just yesterday,
Smiling with twinkling eyes
As you dive into the depth of the soul,
Gently purring out each exhalation
As you relax into the now,
Being kissed by the setting sun
After a day of joy and adventure,
Being caressed by the evening breeze
With tickles and laughter,
Going to sleep snuggled and held,
Surrendering to the moment, and
Trusting that all is good,
Because it is.
Evolving Love
Distant love,
Your silence would have shattered me
Had I not already been broken
Into nakedness, unarmed.
Changing love,
You whispered of your love to me,
And yet as soon as the winds shifted,
You cast it away like old leaves.
Infant love,
You forgot what you had felt in the summer
During that cold winter day
Without vision of the blossoming spring.
Doubtful love,
Your past betrayed the future,
As the present was denied its breath.
It quickly plummeted to its death in agony.
Impulsive love,
Your fire burned bright and seduced
All ladybugs to come near to your flame of passion,
Leaving ashes in the hearts of your victims.
Careless love,
You made me feel like a queen,
But then you placed me on the buffet,
Surrounded by the other appetizers.
Divine love,
You came to me at the end of my suffering,
Radiant and inspired, peaceful and steady,
Letting me know it was all worth it.
Holding You
I hold you in my heart
With the strength of a black hole.
I hold you in my dreams
With the sweet knowing that you are real.
I hold you in my breath
With the certainty that I'll never forget the next inhale.
I hold you in my mind
With the clarity of a perfect formula.
I hold you in my body
With an electric current flowing.
I hold you in my hand With
a big smile on my lips.
Why?
When I hold me, we are one,
So I will hold you forever.
The Bird
A singing bird landed
As I opened the window
To my soul.
It chanted of life,
Of love, and then of joy
And possibilities.
I smiled from
My heart
And knew
That as its nest
I could
Inspire it to fly.
Then we could
Both soar
Into the horizon.

Descripción de la tienda
**Please note our transit times are from the date of dispatch.** We first started out as “The Paperback Exchange,” a chain of physical bookstores where we would part exchange your beloved books for new stories to transport you to faraway places. However, as shopping started to evolve to online shops and marketplaces, we bid our stores goodbye to become “PBShop.” This transition has only allowed us to blossom as we now ship thousands of titles to book lovers across the globe. We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence. If this is your first purchase with us, or you are a returning customer, we would like to welcome you to the PBShop family, for there is no friend as loyal as a book. We are a company who put our customers at the centre of everything we do as we understand the importance of reading because once you learn to read, you will forever be free. There are a whole lot of things in this world of ours that we are yet to explore, which is why we will forever inspire curious minds.…
