| Biography: |
I was born loving the light and have spent much of my life learning to discover it in unlikely places as well as likely ones.
From the time I was small I wanted to be a writer and certainly I have spent nearly a lifetime pursuing that art. In the process I raised five children, published many articles and poems and a number of self published books written both with my husband and by myself.
My most recent book, published by Galde Press is a combination of my Heartwings Love Notes--perspective pieces reflecting my personal philosophy, poetry to reflect the themes of the essays, and helpful exercises to allow readers to help themselves create a more positive approach to life.
I also write and publish a weekly internet column called Heartwings Love Notes. My weekly newspaper column, Good Earthkeeping is popular in our town as are the local cable programs I devise and produce.
I hope to keep learning and growing all my life. There is much to discover and enjoy and I hope to always see life from that perspective.
My husband and I are very much in love after more than three decades, and people tell us we are an inspiration to them. I try to live my life as a good example of a kind, loving person. It is my belief that we all do the best we can with what we are given to work with, and I do what I am able to help make the world a fruitful, happy garden of delights. |

| Pujakins's recent Blog entry. | Heartwings Love Notes 571 On Being Retired ( 1 reads) | Monday, May 20, 2013 (01:44:45) | | | Heartwings says, "Being retired doesn't mean you sit and do nothing."
Until very recently, I've never thought of myself as retired. My life didn't fit my original definition of what I thought that meant. Nor did I understand what being retired did mean. Then as I was changing the bed one day I was struck by a thought. Within limits I could do pretty much anything I wanted any given day. Of course that day could bring various obligations, appointments, deadlines--not many but some, as well as the beckonings of opportunity, yet even those are nearly all by my choice.
When I was a child I used to think grownups could do whatever they wanted, whenever they wanted. Like going to bed: If I were grown up, I reasoned, I could go to bed any time I wanted. I could even stay up all night if I wished! Of course, I soon found out the truth. For most of my adult life I was at the beck and call of life in the form of family, society, and the obligations of living. However, I have now left much of that behind.
I never did have a 9-5 job. Mine was always pretty much 24-7 care of family and then for the last 30 plus years, running our business with Stephen. Once I thought being retired meant sitting around doing little to nothing. Actually it means I have the time to do all the little tasks and chores I didn't when I had a house and youngsters or business obligations to fill my days. These days there is no special reason to polish the silver picture frames or tidy my bureau drawers until I feel a need to.
Do I feel retired? Not by my original definition. Have I retired? Yes, actually. I have retired from active duty, so to speak. However, I am always on duty in the sense that I will continue to care for my surroundings and for those I love even if it is more frequently with phone calls and emails rather than home cooking and mending. I welcome with open arms the freedom of choice that goes with retirement. It is the unexpected, unanticipated bonus at the other end of life and something I always wanted as a child.
When your time comes may you find fulfillment in your retirement as well as joy.
Blessings and Best Regards, Tasha Halpert

Hello:
may all the rainbows hidden through the realm of life,
palpate the lining of your thoughts and heartstrings.
May all the angels around your aura
dance freely around the life of you, and the heavenly things.

Poetry should be the view to our world.
Poetry is art through words
Art is poetry through vision
Poetry is word-art's paintbrush
Art is a merry vision of poetics
---
Music is sound through artistic frequency
it dances with these whirling heartstrings
it's the world's universal tasty sound wave
an accolade, a reigning gem of rainbows
the ear dance to our voicing silence
when, oh hail the words fail to speak
----
garments of musicality is our sumptuous beat
a dream dance alliance of our ongoing treat
the fixating ardent one for our rhythmic minds
crawling on the floor when feet can't walk on time
