THE EMPTY NEST

My nest is as it should be now, empty.
Tidy, ordered, calm.
My babies have grown, beautifully, and flown.
Just the way I taught them to.
And my heart is full of pride, and love, still so full of love.
But oh there is an ache there, a t

How You Affect Others Daily

You never know whose life you are affecting, big or small.

As the pace and fullness of modern life serve to isolate us from one another, the contact we do share becomes vastly more significant. We unconscious

Letting Go

People are often advised to ‘just let go’ of any emotional pain or anxiety as though it’s something that can be done without first confronting the source of negativity. If it were a case of simply letting go, then everyone would be free a

My Kind of Spirituality

My kind of spirituality is the kind that needs no name. It respects no rules and fits no form. It’s as unique as an evening star, and fluid as the morning mists.

My kind of spirituality doesn’t come from the pages of a book,

Never Too Late for Love

Regardless of age and past experience, it’s never too late for love. The attraction between man and woman is divine and never changes as an imperative for spiritual union. What does change as people get older, or have experie

When I say ‘happy new year’,
I'm not for a moment,
expecting this to occur,
for that is not possible…
a year must be all things.

Happiness must come and go,
like the tides and the winds,
just as sadness,
and all the emotions in between.

When I say

~Desiderata~

Go placidly amid the noise and the haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence. As far as possible without surrender be on good terms with all persons. Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others, even to the d

CLOSING CYCLES: 2022

One always has to know when a stage comes to an end. If we insist on staying longer than the necessary time, we lose the happiness and the meaning of the other stages we have to go through.

Closing cycles, shutting doors, endi

Love and Emotion

Love is more profound than emotion. The fundamental difference between the two is that love never causes pain, whereas emotion creates all the problems in the world. Emotion is the mind’s concept of love, which is conditioned by the

Let there be PEACE on EARTH
And Let it Begin with ME.

“The basis for peace is respecting all creatures.”
~ César Chávez

“If you have men who will exclude any of God's creatures from the shelter of compassion and pity, you will have men who will dea

Extreme emotional authenticity, individual creative autonomy

states of psychic oblivion, an art of design of creative seduction..

The fine line between artistic flare & damn kooky weirdness..

We are coming to the end of another unique year.
You have a couple of weeks left,
to let it all go.

Let go of worry, what will be will be.
Let go of regret, what’s done is done.
Let go of anger, it’s prolonging your pain.

Let it all go and make way.

The level of culture

On the spiritual and cultural level, traditional matriarchal societies do not have religions based on a God who is invisible, untouchable, and incomprehensible -- but omnipotent -- and in contrast to whom the world is devalued a

Patience visited me
And it reminded me
That good things take time to come to fruition
And grow slowly with stability

Peace visited me
And it reminded me
That I may remain calm through the storms of life
Regardless of the chaos surrounding me

Ho

Surrender Is relief.
Surrender is strength.
Surrender means it’s over.

I have learned to love this space.

Walking away from confrontation, argumentative attitudes and bloated egos brings peace - it just feels better. And when that little voice in our he

I owe myself an apology
For all the times
I tore myself apart.
When I neglected my own needs
Lowered my standards
Berated myself
And put myself down.

For the self-sabotage
I continually inflicted upon myself
And the times when I apologized
For being

Pause.

Curl this blessing
beneath your head
for a pillow.
Wrap it about yourself
for a blanket.
Lay it across your eyes
and for this moment
cease thinking about
what comes next,
what you will do
when you rise.
Let this blessing
gather itself to you

Happy Celtic New Year, November 1st!

THE LOSS OF A MOTHER

Is an inevitable part of our life.

We know it will come around
and we know the day will hurt
but we are not prepared,
never prepared
for the tearing.

The tearing of a part of our soul
from its very seams
stitches pulled asunde
