When we look out on the world; We see what is inside of us. I see beauty; Largely kindness; So much love; And mindfulness. Not jealousy: Rarely sadness; Never bitter; All gratefulness. ~Just L (February 22, 2017) #mexicolife

The Seven Natural Laws of Love
We cannot demand, command love anymore than we can command the moon and the stars, or the wind and rain. We can stage a seduction or mount a courtship, but the result is more likely to be infatuation, or two illusions dancing together, than love. Love is bigger than you are. You can invite love, … Continue reading The Seven Natural Laws of Love
Come Home
Come home When you cannot face yourself one more day Come home When the lights go out and you’ve nothing to gain Come home When you realize another lie is too hard to maintain Come home When you grow weary of running from your pain Come home When peace and happiness you can no longer … Continue reading Come Home
I am Not a Tourist Destination
Please don't arrive as a tourist; I'm not interested in a day use pass. No overnight camping allowed; I don't care to be tomorrow's trash. Of course, I enjoy tropical vacations in exotic locations; Yet, I prefer the finer things built to last. A lifetime of quiet moments and intimate adventures; With one bold affirmation, "You are … Continue reading I am Not a Tourist Destination

Ever Swaying Me
Your words serve as a breather; Your voice a lullaby; Nothing sweeter. You soothe anything awry; Washing away anxiety; A full body sigh. Your laughter a beautiful symphony; You strike a major chord; Ever swaying me. ~Just L (February 9, 2018)

E’er Wooing Me Back
I have so many lovers. It is hard to keep track. France, Italy, Mexico, Belize; E'er wooing me back. Some are as warm as the sun. A few as cool as the sea breeze. Others are marble statues. More of a tease. A buffet of delight. They each have their taste. Spicy as Indian cardamom. … Continue reading E’er Wooing Me Back
