Lotus is love. I could stop right there and it would say what I mean fairly well, but I'll expand a little more. Being in the presence of Lotus is like being bathed in warm sunlight, like sitting by a tranquil river and letting the water gently lap at your toes. She's compassionate and kind without being cloying, her sweetness is well balanced by spice, by a healthy sense of mischief. Someone I love dearly, a soul sister.

Lotus is an appropriate title for this woman. Below are some variations from different cultures as to why:

"The lotuses of heaven can change according to people's wishes, flowering when needed. In this way they bring joy to the hearts of all. "

"When the white lotus descends to this world, it changes everyone's life for the better"

If you want to look into the eyes of absolute acceptance, purity and kindness, then take a moment to sit with her.

Thank you for your warm, cooling, lunar heart presence, soft moonlight kindness, your bright silver radiant eyes, oh great bliss (mahasukka) wisdom sky dancer (janadakini)!

Well met, (and so timeless), yes, yes yes; deep and wide is the gratitude.

Hear (here) ye all! Look forward to mutual discoveries and continuing explorations, deeper descents, higher ascents, into wisdoms, magics, healings and bliss to come, in the co created expanded circles Lotus and co. are dancing in!

Ah La La Ho!

Lotus is such a perfect name for this wonderful woman and close friend. She was at the birth of my son and it is very possible he might not have lived if she had not been there and I am profoundly grateful for that. In the many years that I have known Lotus she has steadfastedly pursued her spiritual growth. Such a great example of that. She is a great friend and so much fun to be around! I appreciate the way she and Lenya have generously opened up their house to weekend long parties that have really helped to bring our community together. I look forward to having many more adventures with her!

My acquaintance with Lotus is too short for my testimonial to be truly meaningful, but what I can say about her and Lenya is simply this - they met a random stranger out of his element, and made him instantly feel at home and welcome in their domain. What this says about their kindness, their warmth, and the generosity of their spirits is for you, the reader, to decide, but I am grateful and look forward to knowing them better.
