Thanks @picadillycanada and my lovely @annanenoiu for making me feel my prettiest today in #TO, despite jet lag and lack of sleep… Hudson’s Bay
Love at first sight with #dylanjamestanujaya… Much longed for quality time on the couch with newly minted hot mamma @baby_choy and #Dylan
Missed you @mtanujaya
‘Reunited and it feels so good!’
Was meant to be…plotting with my love @shereenarazm at the #FourSeasons #Toronto Four Seasons Hotel Toronto
Eight years ago I was fortunate to have an audience with The Karmapa while on a long, seeking, spiritual Odyssey.
In the midst of an endless stream of questions, he took a pure white Mala from one of his attending Rinpoches and handed it to me, I suspect, to shut me up.
It worked.
He shut me up in order to wake me up.
Need an exercise buddy who never makes excuses?
You know I’m talking about my fur babies. Weekends are made for walking outdoors with these guys.

This is for every mother, child and woman.
My goddess sister @taramacleangrand is a modern soothsayer and mystic, changing the world with her music and words everyday.
Read this:
How do you tell your daughter
anymore
what is or is not appropriate
in the age of praise
of wildness
and freedom
and expression?
Do you scream at her?
Put some clothes on!
Wipe that shit off your face!
when she is just trying to find
her identity
and her masks
and her “Fuck you”.
How do I explain
that her rebellion
is actually conforming to
an over-sexualized
consumer culture?
How do you teach her to love her body
and then turn around and tell her
to hide it well
so she doesn’t get attacked?
How do you tell her that Instagram
is the new stripper pole
and hundreds of ”likes”
are the dollar bills.
How do you tell her
where we have come from
and what her source of power really is?
I want her to be uninhibited.
A sexual being,
because the power…
it is there, too.
I have an untameable girl
and she honours her mother’s
mother’s mother
as she purposefully
rolls up her skirt and waits watching for the look on my face watching her father cringe
and she is every teenager
who is lost and trying to tell us tell us tell US
“THIS IS WHO WE ARE!
Right now!
So fuck you.”
And it is not what I imagined
and I think
This is not what I taught you.
But
it is.
I said “Be true to yourself”
Right now the world tells her the truth is
tits and ass.
So all i can do
is be proud of her screaming,
because one day
she will hear the messages
of the deeper world
and recognize her own voice
and it will speak differently to her.
Her power will surge,
she will take off her mask
and truly reveal herself.
