We are all deserving of everything. Every Joy, Love, Experience. It's all a part of this journey and we are more than worthy of it. Our inner being or soul knows this. So, when you are in the position of wanting, or desiring something external that you can't afford and then go to a … Continue reading We Deserve More
A Thought About Meaning
A friend of mine thoughtfully loaned me her copy of "A Return to Love" by Marianne Williamson. As I was reading the introduction, I stumbled upon a beautiful reflection, which really resonates with my own ideas on this subject: "Meaning doesn't lie in things. Meaning lies in us. When we attach value to things that … Continue reading A Thought About Meaning
Lean into it
This morning my husband and I had a brief interaction that broke my heart wide open. And as I have learned to do over the past few years, I allowed the pain to wash over me. It wasn't necessarily that we hadn't agreed upon what we discussed or it came as a surprise to me. … Continue reading Lean into it
Letting Go of the Steering Wheel and Choosing Peace
All of the lessons that I have learned over the years always come back to one profound truth for me. The peace that we seek begins with our conscious decision to CHOOSE this within. So, how does this relate to day-to-day reality? Well, the truth is that we create our reality with our focus, … Continue reading Letting Go of the Steering Wheel and Choosing Peace
Flashlight of Love
Sameness isn't something that is necessary to be accepted. Each and every human has a unique energy we planned to bring to this world. And, although we have explored the idea of "fitting in" to be loved and be a part of certain families, groups, clubs, societies and cultures, it is truly LOVE that is … Continue reading Flashlight of Love

My friend eloquently reminded me the other day of a very important truth. "Pain is a great motivator," she succinctly stated while we were discussing how the trials of the past brought us to our joy in the present. Nailed it! It may seem obvious that humanity has been trained to avoid pain at … Continue reading The Great Teacher
Love Them More
My middle daughter, Catherine, came home from camp yesterday, at first, with a pensive silence. Catherine is my extraordinarily independent, I-can-manage-this-myself child. It is my belief that all children bring a "flavor" of Love into the world. I believe Catherine's gift to humanity is her natural nobility, as her default choices are always aligned … Continue reading Love Them More
Did you hear?
I am encountering many "did you hear?"s lately. Did you hear about this tragedy? Did you hear about that crisis? There is no denying that these are trying times. Great atrocities have occurred and are occurring. My heart truly aches for all of the suffering which humanity is currently experiencing. That said, I hear … Continue reading Did you hear?
Abundance Shmabundance
That word. When I say it in certain moments, feelings of emotional charge, frustration, and complexity well up inside of me. And yet it's just a word. And in other moments, I say the word and I feel a warmth, a permeating connection of Love and Truth envelope and hug me. Our connection with abundance … Continue reading Abundance Shmabundance
