No! I don’t want to! No! I will not! These are the things I say to myself when I am feeling completely obstinate. It is a feeling of standing still and strongly opposing that which is said to be important or otherwise necessary. Well I do not care what they say, I am not going […]

Rinse and Repeat
“The intuitive mind is a sacred gift and the rational mind is a faithful servant. We have created a society that honors the servant and has forgotten the gift…” ~ Albert Einstein Knowing this I ask again — what does it feel like to receive unconditional love? Now without labeling, without using words or employing images – or memory even – can […]

Homecoming & My Practice
I just got back from a delightful trip to Baltimore. And after four straight days of loving, embracing and renewing connections with family and friends I dearly cherish and being equally embraced and loved by them – I am having a tough time being at home again. A vast difference has been shown to me and it […]
A Call to the Universe
So I am having fun and they all say, “Just follow your passions and life will find you!” But I still have that longing, that requirement to be intimately engaged with one other person. To be joyfully entwined with them and all their interesting foibles and have them lovingly entwined with me and all my […]
Asking the Mask a Few Questions
Where did you come from – this mask of mine? Are you planning on staying long? What purpose do you serve? Can I see underneath? How many others do I allow to peek? When you showed up was I aware of your coming or did you slide slowly onto my face as lichen attaches to […]
I Love You Universe!
I am having a real tough realization today. It is rather embarrassing and I feel really raw but the TRUTH does that to us – doesn’t it?! Found out last nite that ‘my crush’ has happily found a sweetheart of his own. He has never responded to me in any way other than as a […]
Vocabulary as Lesson
Won’t you join me in a vocabulary lesson? Pull up a chair and set awhile. But be aware you may find that these little words scorch a space inside you that may be difficult to attend to in just one sitting. Or maybe not… Here are a few words which describe Metaphysical ideas that may […]
Joy Springs Up in Unexpected Places
Do you know the sound the cartoon dog makes when he shoots his head straight up and suddenly becomes aware of something? And his warm, sweet and goofy awareness changes everything and comically moves the story forward? Well – I am making that sound – dumb lovable feisty me. I am suddenly aware that I […]
Get Busy Livin’
“Life presses upon us, forever challenging us with new forms of vitality that threaten the status quo which feels so good with its stability and peace. Religions seem to hate Pan and his vitality. Often, they prefer the death principle. Let things be as they always have been. No intrusions of vitality, please. I think […]
Enlightment at Gunpoint
Looking back, my Religious/Spiritual timeline begins with casual Sunday School for one summer followed by communion and a photo of me in a dress in front of a huge pink azalea. NO inner connections were made. Everything was external and ceremonial. During my teen years I was hit by a car and felt my soul […]
Valentine’s Day
I do not fit snugly into a world built on principles of clock time and corporeal senses alone. I may appear eccentric if I write about things like “straddling eternity.” But it is in the effemera I feel most hardy. My strength seems to build upon itself in the light of my spirit. What do […]
