Living my Life Song
Releasing the Past
I Am Done!
And yet aspects from before
Still useful
Find new uses for old and pass it on
Holding on to what
For what purpose?
August 16, 2020
Leavings –The following are Writings (August 9 – October 17, 2020; inspired by Book: The Woman’s Spell Breaker: A journal for rediscovering your true nature by Cindy Johnston; shared with my daughter) interspersed with my daily snippets.
One of My Tribe; a woman from Alberta; who I’m unsure I ever met; wrote “Feel the stirring of the wind as Spirit flowing through our lives,” Her name: Diane Linden. Her song, “Crone’s Lullaby.”
I would say, “Feel the Spirit in All of life touching me and know I am Spirit as well. Live my Life Song.” August 9, 2020
Teachers and Wisdom Activators that come to mind this day: Carolyn McDade, Singer-songwriter, who wrote and sang, “Listen, listen to the voices that beg to differ from the rest.”
A song, “Long May You Run”, by Neil Young; which I rarely sing; but must have heard, came into my head regarding this subject; tells me the story I am running in my head is I haven’t heard from this aspect of myself since 1962; it’s here now and hoping it has a long run. Enjoying life might be what his song is about or it could be to do with living well to old age; knowing the effect my sister’s death from domestic abuse had on me and how it shaped my writing and my need to do something to end abuse continued to haunt me to this day. That girl from 1962 is needing to be heard.
“All creatures great and small;” was a line I heard and CREATURES have been my teachers and wisdom activators; such as birds, and now creatures I see in all I look at; whether human, animal or creatures I see in whatever is before me…….
Trust in myself.
Transient is our Life. We are Spirit. August 11, 2020
Someone who lives authentically; my daughter, BARBARA ANN SAGH, comes to mind as she
Speaks up for herself
Is happy at home
Can be by herself
Not seeking honors for herself
Lives her inner wisdom August 18, 2020
I Want Serenity
Peace and
Calmness
Be okay
With Being
Moved emotionally
Around family.
Open Window
Smell of Harvest
As I do Yoga
Aug 18 -20, 2020
On way to Edmonton
With Barbara and the girls
I Pad is found
Good-byes been said
Construction zone through Saskatoon
A hot air balloon
Tea and muffins
Helicopter practicing landings
Bathroom stop on side road
In the wolf willow
Red and blue birdhouses
Alone the fence line
Water with ducks
Seven oil wells
Sierra counted to twenty-seven
I saw a grain terminal
Mya a castle
Pens for Kindergarten workbook
And a 3 and 5-year old occupied
Barbara seeing hawks
I magpies
Relating is her or my tarot card
Dairy Queen hamburger lunch
Gas station bathroom stop
Masks for all
Peppa Pig on one I Pad
Nursery rhyme songs on another.

Mostly good sleep
Down; Sad Tears at 2 am
Out on deck crying
Watching the sky
Staring at stars and clouds
Not knowing why
This morning I know
Unhappy times I’ve had
Feelings I had to deny
To fit in; belong
They’re here right now
Want happiness as well
Body pain here
As well as the fear
I wasn’t able to express
When I was 9 or 2 or 15 or 7
So it is here again
About to be spent
See the happy times
Cause of the girls
Sharing their excitement
Disappointment and fears
Aug 26, 2020
Mya is three
Said
“Teacher said when I’m three I won’t scribble”
Crying her disappointment to me
“I’m three and I still scribble.”

IDEA: Red & Purple Binder; COVID -19 MY WAY is the Title – August 27, 2020
Off to Casey’s Grad Barbeque
This Sat. Aug 29th 30-degree day
Swathers in the field
Golden green all around
Hwy 41 construction finished
We now own an RV
Deposit down on the land
An hour from the city
Deep Woods Campground
At Little Wakaw Lake
Now discussing kayaks and a barbeque
Some fields combined
Most rows of golden swaths
Trees not changed color
Cows standing in a slough
One combine only going at 2 pm
Sitting since Thursday’s rain
A field of bales
Wrapped in green plastic
A tour of our lot
Debate where to sit RV
Will we need to trim trees?
For best position of slides
Deluxe beef dip barbeque
Guest list under 30
Sanitizer and social distancing.
August 29, 2020
Moments are all we have
Explore your dreams knowing each character an aspect of self wanting to be heard
In a relationship we take turns caring for one another.
I am learning, changing and gaining freedom from the wounds of the ages as I let them go.
My body lets them go. August 31, 2020
When I think of honouring women’s wisdom:
Kindness, gentleness and acceptance of the aspects of self I now don’t like; knowing I developed them as I needed; to survive and thrive.
Seven am I am sitting in the sun in the living room. Last night was the pre-full moon. Maybe why we lay awake many hours. Shedding.
Tonight; a Full Corn Moon; learned today from web on phone.
September 1, 2020
Outside in Garage
Sorted my songs
Left at 10 am
Measured RV
New route out of town
Marquis drive to the
Chief Mistawasis Bridge
Through eastern new Saskatoon
Aspen trails, Evergreen
Safeway stop for garbage bags
Lunch packed and hot tea
Saws, a hoe and measuring tape
Owner of land calls
Installed 4 stakes at 111
In a straight line in right location
Can move it forward and backward
Have time to think about
Deck, shed and trees
This general rain in Saskatchewan
An end to combining
Golden wheat, bearded barley
Swathed canola; sitting
Saw Shawaga Road sign first time
Found our lot
Bob pulls nettles
I pull pig weed
He chops dead wood
I watch cranes in the field
Sun comes out as we
Eat our picnic lunch
Two young woodpeckers
Storm all around
Absolute beautiful
Where we are.
September 2, 2020
Heart meditation
Connect with three friends
Grandchildren connect
So many tears over grief I’m in
Acceptance of it
Surrendering to it I guess
And trying not to be derisive
Beauty outside gorgeous
Appreciating effort I’ve been doing
Putting into life healing
Caring for self and others
Such beauty in my house
Looking around inside and out
Beginning to heal
Let go of some big things
Heart and left shoulder area
Development of Equanimity
As healing my mouth now and then
Infected teeth and gums
Teeth all extracted at once
Dentures put in; a horror experience
Wisdom teeth removal within two years
Body Remembering
Dreaming telling someone
15 or 16 when had them all out
First dentures put in immediately
Patient, kind and accepting
Of the experiences of this moment
Sept. 2, 2020
Angels in me; around me
Connected as can be
As I deal with my fears
I brought on through the years
I am now listening in love
I will do whatever it takes
Do is what I’ve always done
And I’m not doing that
Surrender give way
Is what inside me is saying
Accepting what’s hear
Will happen year after year
Only live it a moment at a time
New experiences
Being at a lake
Living in a bush
Beside an open field
Under a starry night
It’s still the same moon
Still the same sun
Shining down on everyone
Do what I need
To enjoy being me
Capturing precious seed
Of ONE
Thurs, Sept 3, 2020 4:44 a.m.
I AM STILL HERE
WAITING FOR YOU
I AM STILL HERE
Listening TO You
WAITING
LISTENING
LOVING

CHALLENGED
Have Been in the Deep and Like Doing a Life Review since Bob’s near death earlier this year, my brother-in-law’s death and the terror experience re Saskatoon gangs in June. Had me in fear and grief and wanting to stay home and look within; finding my answers; finding HOME. I usually spend five to seven am; when closest to essence allowing the emotion. September 8, 2020
Living Life Is an Adventure
Showing Up. Doing yoga on my day off of nothing planned. My new ideas or looking back at something I wrote long ago. No idea where it will lead me or go. My imagination and my unexpected emotions of gratitude. All an Adventure. September 10, 2020

Light exploding from inside September 20 – 26, 2020
I am growing before my eyes. Taking more chances. Feminine seeking to open my left eye. Right eye has been open a long time. Sees the wisdom; a Priestess which I called a Priest when I was growing up. An Egyptian Pharaoh comes to mind; a woman in a position of power.
Part of the Universe not wholly there yet. Emerging from the deep.
Drawing on the wisdom of ancestral women who plowed the land; lived genteel lives.
I am ready to take my place sharing the love and truth that are my experience to share.
OVERCOME backwards is Come Over; get to know my best in all I do.
September 27, 2020
FALL
Leaving yellow poplars of our backyard
Evergreened courtyard for a country drive
Noise buffer zone being built for newest residential neighborhood
Nearly leaving September behind
Hello to coppery reds and oranges
Leaves nearly gone some places
Migrating geese; golden stubble
Bales in the ditches; canola swaths needing drying
Huge white flock; nine; bigger than geese
Crane type birds- no black tips so not whoopers
Half dozen magpies; a hawk; more Canada geese
Huge eagle sits on the highest tree; two crows watching it
Many darting little brown birds
Another eagle atop a telephone pole
Or are there telephone poles anymore
Probably a power pole
Four geese pecking the stubble
Seven seagulls; must be near water
We are; a grand slough
Cattle close by
Farms in the distance
Shiny grain bins in a line
Church spire shows off the town
Cell phone tower beside
No elevators around
Another eagle right after I exclaimed
“Oh, the beauty of the land”
Flapping its wings over hills of unbroken land
Poplars, shrubs and grasses; twenty shades of color
Greens, golds, burnished reds; browns, greys
Silver, yellows, oranges, soft beiges
As our picnic in the country ends
More than twenty whooping cranes
White with black tipped wings
Complete a fly over
A raven on a fence post
Great blue heron on water
We follow a line of cars to the city.
September 27, 2020
Emerging from the deep
To a position of power.
Writing
My thumbprint on life!
Centred and calm
Being for a long time.
Wavering
I’m here
Engaged in it All!
September 27 – October 3, 2020
Look
I’m ready
I am living it
Loving life
Each moment precious
Practical
Allowing the past
To continue to appear
As it does
The healing informs
The Present
Healing Myself
Has been a present
To myself and others.
Taking one more step
Or three more steps a day
Has helped me carry on
When I don’t know the road
Listening inside is how I’ve won
Was a song or poem line from years ago
Another was live my life song.
I’ll Continue
Live the Music inside. October 7, 2020

Beauty inside and out
Winged horse striding so strong
Will it rescue me
A little one scared
So small and defenceless
Magnificent silent golden buffalo appearing
With one eye open
The light and the dark keeping all afloat
In the ocean of life. October 20, 2020

COLLAGE:
Sorting out what is leaving. Some Great. Some not so great. I’m 65. Travelled Hawaii. Snow birding for our tenth year. Insurance supposedly settled but was not as health concern for Bob. Mainly feel financially secure but the close calls over the last two years taken its toll; my losing sleep, vitamin d issue, technology, electronics. Knowing and guessing what’s going on. Then Covid hit. Summer Came. Wakaw and an RV newest idea doesn’t seem real yet.
At the centre, I am a Saskatchewan Writer; A guild in Myself and In Others that support me; People close and Not so close & SWG is here if I want it
Challenge is family first as spending time with grandchildren; all three in different ways; and CHILDREN & partners; connecting with them and family of origin. Winter is coming. What do we want in our Retirement? Active Lifestyle. Not dreading “what’s over the next hill.” Different paths, same destination; LOVE; free to be me, Simple experiences, local, Staying Healthy.
Keep Evolving. Stay, Play, Planning our Getaways, Saskatchewan, Paris, The Rhine.
Write, Earn, Repeat. Build on What I’ve Done. Put it out there. Confidence.
Come from Within – What was away is here – Layers
Art of the Matter.
There’s a Whole Universe Within and Without.

LIFE SONG (acrostic)
Living connected
Innocence long gone
Fairly open to new
Erasing history
Sooner rather than later
Onto the next thing
Nothing held back
Growing with Other’s help.
(a little girl turned carping woman with only her head out of the water in the big dark sea of life – with two golden ancient ones; like a gargoyle or Egyptian pharaoh type creature and a mythical tree spirit looking on that will be there for her if she calls on them and glad I have a knowing I will get through even if challenging to live this; as the tears pour)
November 1, 2020
My puppy is back
Young at heart
An old wise dog
Surrounded
By caring gentle men
A golden elephant
Not forgetting anything
Stepping lightly
Not plodding along
Ancient divine beings
A miniscule child comforted
November 2, 2020
Up and outside at 4 am in darkness
And the tears come
Looking at Stars & Sky & Moon & Vastness
Know I’m not Alone But
Consciousness is the miniscule me leaving
In (to) the vastness
And yet may have 40 years left.

What to do to deal
With this anger and grief
Knowing each moment as home
“Something which is known to have been from the beginning”
Song from another time comes
2014 picture comes on FB
Me in royal colors
2018 picture comes to me
Compliments of SWG
Up to me whether or which
I choose for member profile
More to deal with
Part from writing Beyond
Whole body of writings
Have been a way of dealing with
Loss, anger, pain, remorse
Love, gratitude, thankfulness
And Not being honest if not sharing
The pain and anger and heartache.
Despondency, hopelessness
Not in the despair
Acknowledging I have choices
Not ready to take responsibility
For learning, making them
Putting stuff out myself with no help
Fear of making a mistake
Hurting someone
See what I’m living every day
November 4, 2020
Heartbreak and hope

Alive in the ocean of life

November 8, 2020
With people each week more than own family;
don’t know their last names
Why the frustration?
Not manifesting desires
Who is reading it anyway?
Sending out in the world
Open, Leavings, Roarings, Gifts
Grief from past, Frustration in present;
Shame, self-pity, alone
Others going through similar
Need out of here
Can’t stand thought of loss
Found pens
Wrote friends
New Ideas for connecting
Say good-bye to others
To dreams unfulfilled
Old hurts I took personally
Appreciation for what I have
Sometimes can’t share
Fears of not having enough
Learn to spend money
Who do I need?
What are others going through
What shall I cancel? November 8, 2020

-Appreciating the past; living the present (guy on fb says about his wife who died; lost you 12 years ago; appreciate your company every day and good to see he is happily in relationship now)
-Learning to BE in the world; even if have to write out what I’m going to say first.
-“All is alive; the wonder of it all”, like a coffee table; alive from the wood and glass; spirit still in it of the one who made it; that or is all projection; debating sharing what I see; would others judge as bonkers or are people open enough; non-judgementally interested if I share I see spirit of a man’s face in doorknob; reminds me of a sheik or Jesus’s face and head I see in pictures; ” Is it projection or spirit of connection.

The fourteen ways I was connecting on December 2, 2020
Email, Zoom Singing, Face book, A drop off at my door, Hello to strangers across the street on our walk; texting, in depth conversation with my partner, Invite on what’s app, messenger; cell phone and land line conversations; mailed letter to my grandchildren, journaled to myself.
December 4, 2020: Bob and I awake at 1:30 a.m.; hear a door close. I spent most of night awake attempting meditation and requesting assistance from those in the light gone before to connect with my essence of all that’s been that we all move through this safely.
WAKE UP: DREAM: CHILD DEAD IN BUSH:
Feeling better; Wrote in journal: Getting it: Survivor Guilt; I’m alive; She isn’t; meaning Dorothy
Not my story to tell; I told it re several people’s issues, back in the day of my first book; still do it with my no boundaries
Stories I hear re societal divisions; vaccine contents; am I repeating wrong information; guilt lives on
Used to want to make world a safer place; now just want to live in the present while appreciating the past. Sometimes I lead; sometimes I follow
Stop: mind
Depth
December 4, 2020
Rigidity
Happiness
Separation
Holiness
Wrong Doing
Unknowingness
Love when it’s not Love
Guilt
Still in the “Please help me mend my broken heart and let me live again.”
Out of step with the world, still stuck in the past; escape with words, books and doing.
Degrees of Separation
December 5, 2020
An upside-down world
December 6, 2020
Too much again So black and white
Upside down, round and round Seeing eye to eye
Some would say circle Some would say square
Some would say They weren’t even there
Like a hockey rink Some flying round
Are not upright Only upside down
Life is a game Enjoy it while you can
We have teammates So let’s go and play
Some are in the open Some closed down
Some love the noise Others not a sound
Music fits for some Straight and narrow
Others want to wait Like a brown sparrow
It may never fit For most that I know
Do it for myself Put on a show
Soft at heart Where it intersects
Breathing softly Listening till it fits. December 6, 2020

Christmas 2020
What if you’re unsure you like Christmas
What if it all seems a sham
When you hate the consumption
When it’s supposed to be about the Man
It’s a struggle to even write about this
I no longer try to fit in
Now I’m having visions of mincemeat pie
Inviting kids even though there is Covid
Christmas for me is the big C
Connecting in any way we can
I’m not a gift buyer; never was
Most years gave something to everyone
I think we’ll still do Christmas Eve
It’ll BE whether we do it or not
Last year, champagne, orange juice; Christmas brunch
Arizona’s rain for days was our lot.
So, turkey and trimmings for two or five
Christ’s light I’ve seen may or may not appear
Celebrate Christ and all that is
As today I end another fear
Christmas for me is the big C
Christ Connection needed no plan
Celebration with Creativity
As all on earth for me is Clan,
December 10, 2020
As little as the elf on the shelf, of the vast cosmos
