I recently had a bit of an unnerving experience. I consider myself to be fairly level, balanced, understanding and accepting of others, but the other day I read something that really shook me up to my core. A person I’ve known since my childhood posted something controversial on Facebook that was totally out of character…

Peace is Over Rated…
When my kids were young we lived a hectic life. Between work, their school projects and homework, our dogs and cats and birds and rabbits and ferret – whew, plus our active lifestyle of swimming, hiking, camping, mountain biking, motorcycle riding, kayaking, paintball playing, it was pretty much the land of chaos. I used to…
Question of the Day…Intuition or Imagination?
Lot’s of people tell me they have times when they feel inspired or get a flash of insight and quickly dismiss it as ‘daydreaming’ or ‘just their imagination’. If that’s something you find yourself doing STOP IT RIGHT NOW! A sure fire way to block your intuition is to start questioning it. If you’re just…
Word of the Day…Balance
Are you living in balance? No, I’m not asking if you balance your work and home life, or if you balance your checkbook, not even if you balance your emotions. I’m asking a deeper question, I’m asking if you live in balance with your authentic self. Did you even know that you had an authentic…
When Sadness Strikes…
Have you ever noticed how you’re just going along, minding your own business, busy earning a living and taking out the trash and doing laundry, then…WHAM…you’re Sad. Blue. Down. Like, really down…for no reason down. Just sad…like you want to cry sad. Chances are something you heard, saw, smelled, touched or thought of triggered (unconsciously…
What is Your Purpose in Life?
Many people have come to me to discover why they are here and what they should be doing with their life. It seems most of us have asked ourselves that question at one time or another and the answer is neither easy nor simple, nor is there an answer that applies to your entire lifetime. As…
Word of the Day…Peace
Today’s word of the day, Peace, had become a kind of buzz word in the late 60’s and into the 70’s as people wanted to end the war in Vietnam. It came back around in the early 2000’s, not because of a war, but as people wanted to de-stress their overworked lives. It’s not quite…
Desperately Seeking…Something
As far back as I can remember I have always been searching for something. It has always felt as if there was something missing, some piece of the puzzle not with the rest, a vacant space where there is supposed to be…well…something. When I was younger I thought that Love was the missing piece of…
Word of the day…Clarity
Clarity may only be seven letters, but it’s such a big word it could be the word of the day for a month. Like many words, clarity’s meaning can be subjective. For me, getting clarity means clearing away emotions, beliefs and ideas that are not aligned with my authentic self. Sometimes that even means getting…
Question of the day…Gratitude
How many times can you say thank you today? It’s not about having good manners, although that’s always appreciated, it’s a matter of gratitude. How grateful you are for everything you have – see – do is directly related to how abundant your life is. Energy flows where attention goes and if your attention is…
