Choose Love. Choose Life. The Oshun Life.

The Power is within all of us to choose, in every moment, even painful ones, to choose to search and find the Love or the Good in it. Even trials happen to make us stronger, more able to endure in patience, and wiser with better character. Even suffering teaches us to appreciate tenderness and pleasure all the more. The sout, the bitter, the salty teaches us to appreciate all the more the Sweet. And even the smell of flowers ("mas flores Mi Nina") covers the stench of Death-- which has no power to permanently subdue but who is an Elegant and beautiful teacher of Transition, Re-shaping, and Re-Unification.

We reject, scorn, fear, cheat, run from, and regret Death. Yet Death, unlike everything in this world never betrays or disappoints us. She is always waiting, patient, romantic, consistent in Her watch over us....She's the only one you can truly count on to show up. ...and another smaller Faerie voice whispers to me: "yet, also Love..."
