A dormant seed in your soul awaits the water of life.

Love wins every time.
I’ve never been in a relationship that felt so right,
we are a team!
The progress made was almost unattainable in a past thought process, love is powerful; taking me to places I’ve never been but always wanted to go.
Love you Hunny.
Tea . A Zen Story; rewritten by – Nina

A Buddhist monk who studied and meditated on the teachings of Buddha for over a decade wanted to speak with an enlightened one who dwelled alone in a small temple high in the mountains. He prepared for his journey eager to hear his teaching. After 7 days of rigorous hiking he reached the temple.
The master greeted him and welcomed him inside. The master put some tea on to boil and they sat in silence. The monk became very eager and unsettled in not hearing his teaching. The master poured the tea and sat with the monk. The monk didn’t drink his tea and began questioning his master of Buddha.
The master replied.. “You have studied Buddhism for 20 years and can not simply enjoy this cup of tea?” The monk wept…. as another step to enlightenment lay under his feet….

My Angel Sleeps – Nina
When I see you there in my bed;
serenity and calmness
A complete trust
I run my hands along you as to say ” I’m in your dreams my love”
:with care I know you oh so well
Dimly lit I can see your gorgeous silloute
In the here and now I can feel complete in the complete silence
But your calm breath,
Soothing… to my soul
I place my arms around you, close as I can be
I’m awake in this dreamingly moment
As my Angel sleeps.

The art of finding oneself. – Nina
More often than not we are told how to live, right?
Take a minute to evaluate.
Starting off in a classroom for years and even decades on end, you sit, sit to learn; Christopher Columbus discovered America and how to find the square route of random numbers. Sigh*
Did human evolution naturally incline us to spend our most important years of growth in a chair? I think not…….
We graduate, we’ve learned how to follow orders and build bridges for our employers… laws of the land; creating barriers physically and financially more and more as life progresses. The idea of a 9-5 and a white picket fence and 3 kids. Even if it is graspable for the lucky few, we struggle to move forward.
“Did you stop, stop to reevaluate the ingrained ideology placed upon you?”.
Individuality is becoming farther and farther less prevalent as we strive to get the same jobs, same cars, computers and apparel… We want to be beautiful or successful financially in essence… bombarding us in advertisements and corporate agenda.
Some say in order to find oneself, one must lose themself; similarly in religions in the aspect of being “reborn,”. Every day we wake up from a subconscious state, back into the conscious reality. Every day is a chance to be reborn.
What I am trying to portray is that “change” is this key. To Lose yourself… be reborn…
It all starts with you. As much as the daily routine brings you comfort it can also be your prison.
Escape it.
Fear not what change may bring unto you.
“Imagine”.
Who you are and where you can be. Erase all fear they have instilled inside your heart.
Be free.
Note to self. – Nina
Don’t feel so down, you are an inspiration
You’ve got a gift with inclinations
Your a beautiful soul with permanent growth
You extend a hand up and always woman or man up
To any situation…
It’s your world beautiful
You can be free anytime, cause freedom is in here
In your heart, depart to anywhere
You love and are loved, that’s a fact
Don’t feel alone when you’re intact and attached to love
Just relax…
I’m that butterfly – Poetry reading by Nina Yin
Butterfly….
I’m that butterfly;
I’m that beautiful butterfly.
Pink, purple,
yellow and black.
I’m that butterfly you can’t catch,
just watch in awe.
Fluttering into nothingness.
I’m that butterfly whom rises from earth.
Into the sky; rising rebirth.

Mirrors and time. – Nina
An imaginative creature with a desire for adventure, forever in youth.
Years went by…
She looked in that mirror at 13 years old absolutely baffled. It changed everything. “Oh that’s who I am,”. She thought. Eyes wide as the moon shocked in awe. Now I see… A girl is who I am and who I am meant to be.But as most stories go years upon years went by ignoring self in the mirror of time. Dumbfounded by complexities and obstacles to simply finding oneself. She roamed about indulging in indulgence. Schooling in school and working in work. Fulfillment was un-achieved it was simply just work.
Of course there were the slightest attempts to reclaim who she was, where she was going and what she represents. But… Instead of believing in herself she simply listened to others, burying dreams and emotions, tossing them in oceans of acid. Profound sadness eventually madness engulfed her mind absolutely unable to unwind, she left it all…
Luckily for her time allowed the dream so resurface, emerging with profound purpose.
Seeing the truth in a new light wings grew for a new flight. The wind simply carries as the wind usually does and she grew into something unusually good… The world slowly lifted off of her shoulders and she sees herself in the mirror once again.

A Transgender Note – Nina
I don’t feel as though being transgender as a burden, to me it’s a blessing. Many gods, goddesses and spiritual guides were intersex or changed gender over time. Some aboriginal tribes in north America had a name for it centuries ago ” 2 spirit ”
Although unacceptable in Muslim and Christian faiths I am neither. In Buddhism they regard it as your spiritual qualities from your past life arising in your present. I do not need validation from anyone or anything to be myself.
Countries around the world need to show basic human rights, laws protecting trans people across the world. I see suffering in the trans community from an ignorant world without conscious mind on human spirituality and science.
I am a proud transgender woman urging you to be whatever you want to be. Manifest yourself a brighter future in regards to your identity. You need not a label nor a piece of paper. You need not to be understood by all.
But you need to be yourself,
Love Nina
