Evergreen
Please forgive me for sharing my sobbing heart, Bleeding tears witnessing the suffering in the body and soul of our humanity. Infants, children, elders, women and men are dying, Revenge and hate screaming their pain are unleashed and our suffocated humanity is gasping to breathe. Have we forgotten that injustice anywhere is a threat to […]
If i was to say
If I was to say how I embody what I do, I would say, I am “the gardener and the garden” realising the beauty there is. If I was to say, the life-flow of what I do, I would say I co-facilitate with my friends and understand facilitation from the arabic root verb of […]
The Word
The word when written bears the responsibility of compassion. I read it with a thousand eyes… The word when spoken between souls is a manifestation of a cocreation. It bears the responsibility of its humility and the wonder of its discovery. I ponder it with a thousand questions… The word when spoken to a camera […]

The light of Understanding
The light of our human understandings meet in conversation, Reveal a glimering twilight, A dawning placeless, timeless, place-time. Dancing iridiscence, Shimmering sun-humus, Reveal the soft glowing flowing-between. Love, trust and humility, Fuse in meaning, Suffuse each other, Reflect one another, And manifest in the other. What do we recognise in this […]
Makan Makeen
Makan Makeen, There is a place where love, trust and humility, Fuse in meaning, Suffuse each other, Reflect one another, And manifest in the other. Makan Makeen, The safe, love nurturing and nurtured place, The cocreated womb where life and the conditions for life in concrescence bloom each other. The place where all have a […]
