There is a reason there are so many beings on this small round blue and green planet. This way, everybody can have a friend. Not all beings are destined to get along. Some are just too hungry – every friend they meet turns into room service. Some are too sleepy – you start the meet-and-greetContinueContinue reading “Resting in Place with Malti: the Friends We Make”

Resting in Place with Malti: Savor the Sweet Stuff
Sometimes the best thing about a day is that you get to wake up for it. In other words, no one sitting one rung higher up on the food chain o’ life successfully orders you for breakfast that morning. So you go out, forage around, have a wallow, have a nap, forage some more, goContinueContinue reading “Resting in Place with Malti: Savor the Sweet Stuff”
Resting in Place with Malti: Stop and Steady
Life can be hard work. Isn’t it the truth? Every day brings so many choices. So many challenges. You don’t know at the start of each new day how (or whether) you will get to the other end. Sometimes all that stress can really start to pile up. You can feel so much pressure toContinueContinue reading “Resting in Place with Malti: Stop and Steady”
Resting in Place with Malti: How Do You Spell LOVE?
When it comes to love, it doesn’t matter if you have a shell, no shell, feathers, fur, fins or none of the above. Everyone has a love language.

That something – whether it is shell scratches or a sweet private mud wallowContinueContinue reading “Resting in Place with Malti: How Do You Spell LOVE?”
Resting in Place with Malti: A Little Love Goes a Long Way
When you are born slow and low to the ground, you are easy to miss. This can sometimes be a good thing. Since the majority of the other rungs on the food chain o’ life are occupied by beings who are taller than you, you can more easily fly (well, crawl) under the radar whenContinueContinue reading “Resting in Place with Malti: A Little Love Goes a Long Way”
Resting in Place with Malti: N-Okay Days
Some days, life is a-okay. The papaya is flowing. The water is so crisp and refreshing it tastes like a whole school of (Grandma’s organic steamed) salmon just swam through it. All is well. Then there are other days. You know the ones. The n-okay days. When one of those power-hungry, time-stealing, soul-sucking n-okay daysContinueContinue reading “Resting in Place with Malti: N-Okay Days”
Resting in Place with Malti: Love Is In the Air
Sometimes you just know love is in the air. Reason being, you can smell it. It smells so fragrant. The scent is so divine you can almost taste it. You feel so strongly that you are loved – just as you are, for who you are. You know deep within that you are a lovingContinueContinue reading “Resting in Place with Malti: Love Is In the Air”
Resting in Place with Malti: Put Your Feet Up
If there is one truth you can count on, it is this…. The world isn’t getting any less complicated. Or any less crowded. Or any less crazy. This means you can’t go “out there” and find serenity, sanctuary, space. But there is a place you can go to find all of these things. The keyContinueContinue reading “Resting in Place with Malti: Put Your Feet Up”
Resting in Place with Malti: Stop and Smell the Ferns
Life sure can get hectic sometimes. And crazy. And busy. It can seem like it goes by in the blink of an eye. This can make it all too easy to forget to stop. Take a big deep breath in. And a big deep breath out. Take a look around you. Stop and smell theContinueContinue reading “Resting in Place with Malti: Stop and Smell the Ferns”
Resting in Place with Malti: Like a Rock
Being born slow and steady is typically vastly underrated. While everyone else is focusing on how you can’t zip around like those weird furry hopping beings you’re always being compared to, they miss seeing your superpower. Impressions. For example, your impression of a stationary rock is world-class. This is a real bonus when a bigContinueContinue reading “Resting in Place with Malti: Like a Rock”
