Sign, Sign, Everywhere a Sign

My mother loved to garden and delighted in sharing her passion and the fruits of her labor. She was in “heaven” every time she was care-taking her little corner of the world. While she walked this earth plane she taught me well and continues to teach me from heaven above.

So, for me to find flowers here and there, mostly in the oddest of places, comes as no surprise. I may be walking along a city street, or sashaying across a parking lot … when my eyes are drawn to a colorful flower (usually of plastic persuasion) right smack dab in my path. I smile as I bend down to pick it up and always chuckle “Thanks Ma!” Read More

Beauty Abounds

(I am re-posting a decade old message from my mother, Leah, which I believe bears repeating.)

Enjoy yourself, it’s later than you think. Not to be all doom and gloom, but to be realistic.

I always felt as if my life had been swept up by some forceful river and carried along at a pace, I was sometimes comfortable with, other times, not so much. Though on some level I felt I had all the time in the world, there was a secret place within me, shared with no one, where I felt I had to enjoy every single minute – now – because it was later than I thought.

The Heart Wants What The Heart Wants

You may have heard me say “we take ourselves with us”, over and over again. I mean that on so many levels. We take our unresolved issues, unexpressed thoughts, and even our broken hearts with us when we die. As far as I am concerned this is wonderful!

Why? Because it proves we are still accessible, vulnerable and available for conversation when in spirit. I have the pleasure of bearing witness to this phenomenon each and every day. Because as long as those in spirit, our dearly departed, ancestors and friends, are accessible and available – connection, communication, and conciliation is possible. And therein lies the blessing.

The Eve Matters Not

“The ‘thinning of the veil’ refers to the idea that the boundary between the physical and spirit worlds is weakest around the time of Samhain, also known as Halloween, making it easier for spirits and otherworldly beings to cross over. This is a concept from ancient Celtic beliefs, and a similar idea is found in various spiritual and religious traditions. This time is considered by some to be an opportune moment for reflection and connection with ancestors and the spiritual realm.”

In this case my spirit collective has chosen to address their connection relative to All Soul’s Eve, the evening before October 31st and has taken the time to clarify a thing or two: Read More

Fear Is a Choice

Divisiveness, disagreements, name calling, finger pointing all have something in common.

Toxic and unhealthy behaviors are ramping up day by day and have become epidemic in our society, igniting and fueling the spread of fear. The greater the degree of such unhealthy behavior, the greater the yearning for commonality – connection.

As a people, we have become terribly divided. We are suffering so dearly from this division that we have resorted to creating a connection any way we can, whether we are aware of it or not.

You see, humans are a social species and we thrive on connection. Some of our best ideas, products, services, brainstorms are birthed through our connections. Read More

It May Just be Time

“What goes around comes around.” A double-edged sword or a beautifully wrapped gift?

When you hear that expression, what thoughts run through your mind?

I am often reminded of how those who have gone before me have set the stage. I carry on in the likeness of my parents, grandparents, great grandparents and so on. Doesn’t it only make sense – if their blood runs through my veins, that I would have inherited their beliefs?

My past influences my future. Who I am influences who I will become.

What if who I am is not in alignment with the present – the here and now?

Write It Off or Wrap It Up

This month of May, for me, could be characterized as either a write-it-off or a wrap-it-up. The beauty is, it is whatever I choose it to be. The month began with a mild backache which, within no time at all, became a full-fledged show-stopper, reducing me to a writhing and screaming in pain, flat-on-my back woman.

Thankfully I have not experienced a great deal of pain in my lifetime. This was an eye-opening experience. While I do not recall a specific situation or movement which may have triggered this, I am left wondering if this event has anything to do with our collective balance being challenged on a daily basis.

Louise Hay suggests the hips carry the body in perfect balance and serve as a major thrust in moving forward. Did the challenge to my mental balance create a perfect storm which affected my physical balance? The body is clever in that regard. Read More

Your Love Story

Everyone loves a good love story, but does your love story include you?

Over the years I have learned that a majority of women do love truly, madly, deeply when it comes to others, but not so much when it comes to themselves. They find the idea to be quite novel.

Many women have a difficult time with the thought of loving themselves, It’s as if they are either unable to understand the concept or accept their own love. While others capitalize on the self-love, embrace their strengths and soar. I find the disparity fascinating and encouraging.

I am encouraged by the number of women, who, when they dip their toes into the waters of self-care and self-love, are amused, tickled pink and grateful. Their self-esteem blossoms and their confidence increases. Read More
