Retraining ourselves and the way we perceive is not easy. Seeking what isn’t there is illogical, but can be fruitful. Applying the practice of looking, really LOOKING at negative space we can open ourselves up to a unique way of approaching life that is not...

For many years I struggled with owning that I was a creative person, in fact I would defer to my sister as the ‘artist’, the person in our family who was the ‘creative one’. Eventually I was able to by-pass the whole inner debate, and came to an awareness of...

What if Love became something more than a Noun, something more than a Verb? Many people like to expand the power of Love by saying that Love is a verb, that it is more than an emotion, that it is more than a warm and fuzzy feeling, and that you have to put Love into...

Taking the risk to be vulnerable and open, intimately, can feel like you are in free-fall — experiencing in that moment both exhilaration and terror. To risk openness is to risk the possibility of disappearing before our very own eyes. Despite our intention to...

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...

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...

Each moment presents a choice, and results in a choice. Choices. Free will or pre-ordained? Right or Wrong? Good or Bad? Anxiety arises. Living becomes mental, and we become lost. Not understanding that the web weaves itself. That ‘Yes’ can become...

Grief and Joy are such a part of life — when one is in Joy, Grief is in the shadows, so one forgets how it is the sharpness of Grief that makes Joy possible. It’s the pits when we are forced to remember. Yet there is something to New Life that comes with...

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...

But living life from the “Outside In” may also create a dilemma. Spiritually we may look at those same events and question: “why is God doing this to me”, “what am I meant to learn from this”, “what do I have the power to change”? We get lost in the whirlwind or...

I don’t have children, but I’ve had the opportunity to witness how older kids seem to have a harder time forgiving/forgetting, always bringing the focus back to themselves. For me, a product of my childhood, I’m reminded of the first time I came to...

Took a beautiful walk today out to a point that granted an almost 360 degree view of beaches and ocean, with a forest behind me. Up a gentle slope up-hill through a glade, then into the forest of trees, past an abandoned house. Then on through a canopy of trees,...

Our thoughts, words, and identities, are all as changeable as pieces of clothing. They start from nothing but an idea, much like sewing together a shirt or a dress; you begin by choosing the pattern, purchase the material, lay it out and cut the pieces apart,...

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...
