Over the years I’ve recognized that my ability to turn to God (or turn within) as a means of calming my disturbance hasn’t always been automatic. In the beginning I was a bit hard-headed, and full of fear, seeking to find solutions that ‘made sense’ or wouldn’t...

When I see images of shorelines I am struck by the clear demarcation between land filled with human activity (i.e., created structures and vehicles, etc.) and the smooth open plain of water as far as the eye can see. There is a beautiful symmetry of Yin and Yang in...

Every time one of us pays attention to the Spirit of Love & Joy, we enter a new destination into our internal GPS. Once entered, we open ourselves to a continuous flow of course corrections from Spirit. Similar to when we key in an unknown destination into our...

When you perform work from the center of JOY (which has a high resonance), the effort that you put out will lift people up. If you do meaningful work, but it isn’t from a place of JOY it isn’t as transformative. So by doing JOY, by being in JOY, you are not only...

Activists take up a cause, perhaps become part of a group; some may create a mission and vision statement, or organize their efforts toward a worthy goal. These aren’t necessarily bad things, in fact many good works and positive changes come out of such activities! ...

These words have many interpretations and can take many forms, often they are used as a rationalization or justification for actions taken or inflicted on others. Indeed such ‘convictions’ of ‘doing the Lord’s work” has been the...

Recently I had an experience with my newest kitty, Aurora, who has been in a very lovey mode – she can’t get enough of the cashmere sweater that I’ve been wearing on these cold days. She hops into my lap and buries her nose deep in the pit of my elbow or into my side...

I support you in listening to your heart about whether or not a certain Choice or Action is your call or leading; others can (and often do) chime in to give their thoughts and opinions, but they have their own Light to follow. So if you find yourself in a place in...

There is one thing that all of humanity has in common, one fact that transcends all cultures, races, religions, and socio-economic status: a Fear of the Unknown. And we collectively cope with this fear by creating a unified field of consciousness, something that we...

If we lived life like a spider, we would see infinite possibilities — we wouldn’t see empty space, but infinite options to anchor our Life. Every day we can start a new design. We can retrace our steps or explore open space, drop a strand where once...

Often times people think that Surrender is when we’ve given up, or allowed ourselves to move from a state of struggle to a state of peace. We are trained to ‘look for’ that kind of Surrender, something that is tangible, that moves us from ‘here to there’....

On the days my glass is ‘half-full” I go away and I doubt God. And when I can’t doubt God, I doubt myself. And depending on my mood, I can stay in this zone for an hour, a day, a week and lose myself completely in this spiral. Examining: “How did I let...

The image before me is of a doorway, standing wide open, only blackness. I don’t know what lies beyond, only emptiness, not a speck of light, not even a reflection spilling over from the space I’m standing in. There is no floor, nor walls, nothing to help orient me...

and the Universe will support you. Reminds me of the book entitled “Do What You Love, and the Money Will Follow” – although I’ve never read the book, the teaching has stuck. There have been many, many times when I ‘believed’ that lack of money blocked me from taking...

The sky cleared a bit this evening — a pale line of light outlining hills that haven’t been visible for almost two weeks (hell at times I haven’t even been able to see the houses across the street!). Maybe it is a sign that the fire is dampening down...
