Divine Order Inside the Dark
There is Divine Order, I say, with a capital “D” and “O”. I’ve come to witness this clearly during my lifetime. Call it Nature. Call it the Law of Attraction. Call it this world-wide web of energies that makes up this matrix we call life. There are laws that govern life that are beyond that which…
Moving Fingers and Toes
In the middle is a package With a secret Of unknown consequences All other things in this picture could be microbes With a very elaborate social order And rules of conduct But in spite of that They cannot contain their joy For just being able to move their fingers And toes And they keep doing…
The Story of My Life…
‘The story of your life…’ Maricarmen laughed… We had just finished our Spanish lesson on Skype and I was recounting a story – in English – the lesson had finished, which mirrored all we had been talking about… I am not musically gifted; I need another person to help me with timing and to follow…
Feeling Your Way from Stress into ‘Flow’ – Part 4 of 5
When we’re in stress our bodies are effectively in Fight or Flight mode. This can be necessary, for example if we need to escape from a dangerous situation, however our bodies were not designed to stay in this state for longer than about 10-15 minutes at a time. When we remain in stress for long…
Time for Divine Love
“There is no beginning, no end,” I wrote in my journal at my parents’ house in New Jersey 17 years ago. Why? Because I had moved there to heal my hip, and expected to stay for no more than a year before continuing on my life’s path. “So much time has passed. It’s all become…
Just Realize
3:30 am. If it hurts too much, I’ve learned to not let it go on. I get up and become more vertical to the earth for some time, I put an ointment on the skin and wait for the pain to subside. I am very awake and it feels good. What would you expect your…
Studying Reiki is a Serious Business
I am currently studying to attain certification for 2nd Degree Reiki (Shoden). For people that aren’t familiar with reiki energy healing, here is a short description: it is a method for self-care that involves using meditation to tap in to the invisible essence that is all around us. We are part of this world, we…
Our Path to Joyous Self Expression
As I sit here ready to write I have just seen a little girl stride by with a kitten in her arms… The kitten looked resigned, relaxed, prepared – for the moment – to go where the little girl was taking it. Trusting the hands of the child; as I trusted the hands of the…
Feeling Your Way from Stress into ‘Flow’ – Part 3 of 5
Another way to look at this is to imagine that we have a ‘stress bucket’. The capacity of the bucket can vary from person to person depending on the experiences we’ve had in our lives and how these have shaped our beliefs and mindset. Stress comes in to the bucket from a variety of different…
Back to Love
Two weeks ago, I returned from late fall in Buenos Aires, Argentina, to my small casita inside the intense heat of New Mexico. Quiet. No city noise. All the rich moments of being with family and friends in honor of my recently deceased father, and sharing my novel Child of Duende with so many inspired…
Before I was Born
I discovered a pattern in a series of drawings that I made lately. These drawings were made during a period of three days. They are not all the drawings that I made. They are just a sampling. The pattern is of a layered history. I had this pattern in many other drawings that I did…
The Yeshua Collective
Yeshua means “salvation” in Hebrew….But before you stop reading, this is not a post about salvation, or religion, or a lecture on the Bible or about being “saved.” This is about where we are headed as a human collective. You know, the stuff I’ve been talking about for years? But it’s getting pretty serious now….
