For Mother’s Day, my beautiful daughter gifted me a “together day” that began with a trip to Butterfly World, one of my all-time favorite places. The butterflies, the birds, and the flowers are simply AWESOME.
One of the things I’ve learned is that my voice of inner wisdom speaks to me with the greatest clarity when I spend time with nature. Even the shortest of quiet moments outdoors nourishes my heart and soul and re-energizes me. This is my “wisdom walk”.
Truth be told, sometimes I don’t walk at all! Sometimes, I just sit in my backyard, breathe deeply, and just observe. I notice the wind rustling the leaves of the giant banyan. I notice the sun catching the shiny surface of my young gumbo limbo. I notice the butterflies and bees buzzing around my sunflower tree, and the Mockingbird singing, perched on the powerline.
And as all my senses come to life, all my worries, doubts and fears drift away. All the noise in my head is suddenly quieted. My awareness grows and my voice of inner wisdom speaks.
This is peace.
Never has the voice not been there when I listen.
With practice, I can now find that peace anywhere.
So that glorious Mother’s Day morning, I was blessed to share my peace with my daughter.
And as we passed through the ButterflyWorld gift shop on our way out, I found this delightful message printed on a t-shirt:
Advice from a Butterfly:
Let your true colors show
Get out of your cocoon
Take yourself lightly
Look for the sweetness in life
Take time to smell the flowers
Catch a breeze
We can’t all be Monarchs!

So, where will you be taking your “wisdom walk” today? Come back here and tell me about it in the comments below, OK?
In the spirit of wisdom, wellness, and prosperity-
I wish you well!

Nannette,
I enjoy your presence on the earth and your willingness to speak your truth for all those who have an ear to hear. Your work is important; you must know this, but it may help to hear someone encourage you.
As a visionary woman I stepped into my purpose of being a help to humanity through the development of myself and works to help transform the lives of others.
I am an ordained minister and have lived outside of the box. Recently I made a giant leap outside of that box and I wrote a book and a publishing company decided it was a piece to publish. It is a book for all, for men and women of no particular faith or belief and for those of the belief system from which I come.
When you have some time take a look at my book, I welcome your comments. The title of my book is: ‘NEGLECTED SELF…SPIRIT OF UNREST’. It is just now available on most electronic platforms and will be available as a soft cover book in major bookstores.
Thank you again for your work and efforts to raise and heal humanity.
Sarah
Nannette,
I was so excited about your site that while I did give you the name of my book and its availability, I forgot to mention my site (smile). Please also know you are welcome to visit my site: WavesOfLifeVibes.com
Blessings,
