Meditating on the idea of peace, and I was reminded that it comes when everyone remembers their connection to each other. It is recognizing “The Source”, or God, in each living thing (including other species, plants, the ocean, the earth…). Mother Teresa understood it.
Embrace your ignorance! (But please don’t do it by putting yourself or others in harm’s way.) To learn, to grow, you have to KNOW there is an ignorance within that can only be filled through knowledge. You needn’t only bury your face in books to gain knowledge. Learning is brought…
I was ranting about something a career politician from an oil baron family said in response to Pope Francis’ encyclical on the climate and the need for nations to take action to care for the planet and all living upon it. The oil baron said that climate change, while he…
“We are not human beings having a spiritual experience.

I received an intuitive, energy-moving massage a couple of weeks ago (my first full body massage EVER). When she ask what energy work I was doing for myself, I said, “I’m trying to clear, activate and open my lower chakras; specifically the sacral and solar plexuses. They have been my problem…
My daughter was fired from her job today. She was in shock and crying when she called to give me the news, and as she told me what happened, I was struck by the fact that it was exactly what she wanted. I have an analogy I use when discussing the ideas of manifesting…
A pearl, something considered beautiful, strong and worthy of jewelry, is created when a natural irritant slips between the mantle and shell of an oyster (the mantle is the organ that makes the oyster’s shell).
