Read more "Everything New"As I sit here looking at this blank page, many thoughts fill my mind. It is almost the end of March, and I have not written in a while. It has been a profound month for me. I turned 70 on March 12th. I created a birthday for myself to celebrate this new decade that […]
Read more "What Do I Need to Know?"I have had the great opportunity of experiencing a beautiful retreat here in the high desert of New Mexico with Gregg Braden. It’s called “Human Breakthrough.” On our first day, my husband and I had a conversation about intentions vs. expectations. It stemmed from the activities of our traveling day.

Read more "Intentions, Expectations and other Magic"What is a birthright? The dictionary tells us it is “a particular right of possession or privilege one has from birth.” I’m not sure I knew this when I was a child. No one told me I had a birthright?

Read more "Stop! In the Name of Love"“It is not the critic who counts: not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better.

Read more "Daring Greatly"There has been a lot going on in my world. It has been challenging and inspiring at the same time. It has been disappointing; and yet, a time for expansion and growth.

Read more "Out Beyond Ideas of Wrongdoing and Rightdoing…"“We cannot live a choiceless life. Every second there is a choice. If it were not so, we would not beindividuals.” Ernest Holmes wrote this in the 1920’s.

Read more "Ready or Not, HERE, I Choose!"There is a statement by Ernest Holmes, Founder of the Science of Mind and Spirit that goes like this: “The invisible passes into visibility through our faith in it.” I’d like to talk about this statement and how it relates to my life.
