Without a doubt, pets have long been our extended family. Just like us, they come in various shapes and sizes and often have a huge personality packed into a tiny body. They are known to soothe our restless soul and calm us down by merely petting them. Pets bring joy and laughter to our lives and they are often so much more than just a pet. We are their pack leader and bonds/friendships of a lifetime are formed. The memories made, stay with us forever as we cherish the moments spent together.
I recently introduced Luna and without a doubt she is a character with a capital C. She might already has found her way into the hearts of some of you and that’s why I’m asking for your feedback. She is a small little piggy, that comes with a big, big attitude and she definitely thinks that she is the boss. At least she believes it.
A few month back we talked about sharing the adventures of Luna through illustrations and stories, perhaps a…..pssst…..hold on, not so fast. I can’t reveal it all just yet, but her popularity has me wondering if she could have a start here on the blog? Perhaps on Sundays – Fundays such as….gee here I go again, ready to spill it all, as I’m reminding myself to leave some elements to surprise. So if could please, share your thoughts. Just wondered if her adventures would be of interest, and if anyone would care to read and see?
Thank you for your insight…😉
We are the co-creators of our life and the time is now. More than ever are we needed to support Mother Earth and each other.
Together we discover and explore our unique gifts in times of strengths, in times we lean on each other, and in times when we learn from each other.
This blog started as an outlet and what I ultimately called my “Warriors Journey.” It was a way to document the ups and downs of my life, sharing my hardships as well as my successes. It showcased the struggles, but more important the ways of how to overcome them. Although we are warriors each and every day, I realized that having to be a warrior, comes from a place of pain. I decided to rename this blog, and “Phoenix Rising” now stands for the story of overcoming such a painful place.
My motivation for this blog hasn’t changed and I hope to share inspiration and hope, to create a sense of belonging, a space of being heard, and connecting with like minded beings who instill a sense of oneness. We are never alone, and we are unstoppable in the pursuit of what sets our soul on fire.
Who I am in a nutshell...
I am an energy healer and Reiki Master.
I am surviving a chronic disease that I’ve sent into remission three times since my initial bout, 15 years ago.
I continuously challenge the status quo and by doing so I change my stars.
I am a believer that anything is possible. I am a hopeless romantic and I believe that true love exists on various levels. I am an optimist that will always see the glass as half full. I am a dreamer, believing in endless possibilities. Not even the sky is the limit. I have jumped off of the hamster wheel, and I am writing a new chapter.
I am chasing my Nirvana to support my most authentic self.
This is my story, I am that Phoenix and I am rising from the ashes.
Namaste 🙏🏼💙🦋

You are right and I most certainly do as everything that doesn’t come from the heart would only be forced. It has never worked for me and because of it my topics can vary from what I feel on a day to day basis.

She’s so cute yet sassy, for sure. The challenge would be to find her ‘voice’; do you know Brian’s cat ‘Scotch’ over at Bonnywood Manor? He is HILARIOUS; here, I found a story:

I’m sure your guinea pig wouldn’t talk like that of course… : ) G

Haha this is brilliant, thanks so much for sharing. I’m getting so many ideas and I think you are right, finding her voice and what direction her posts would take has to be thought through. I would want them to be funny and full of sass, just like she is. Mmmmh I don’t know, don’t underestimate her, she talks all kind of talks hahaha. Thank you so much G, loved your feedback. Hugs

Ryder has his own day on Mondays. I see no reason why Luna shouldn’t have her own dedicated day. Ryder will even help with intros! 🙂
She’s adorable. She has a voice. She is new and different. I think this would work.

Awe, thank you so much Jay and please tell Ryder thank you very much for his most kind and gracious offer. I just wanted to get some feedback and now that it is positive, my mind is going all over the place and I’m running the risk of overthinking it lol. I need to figure out a clear direction for her posts, kind of what to expect from her and you are right. She already has a voice and is unique, she is also the boss and I’m playing with ideas around that and a few others. Thank you so much, much appreciated. xo
