As I enter Cronehood, I’m truly feeling the lack of female elders in my immediate family. My maternal grandmother died when I was just 16, my paternal grandmother when I was 37, and my mom when I was 44. And not one of them entered this phase without surgical help, unlike me. At the bright […]
Kiss The Earth by Thich Nhat Hanh Walk and touch peace every moment. Walk and touch happiness every moment. Each step brings a fresh breeze. Each step makes a flower bloom. Kiss the Earth with your feet. Bring the Earth your love and happiness. The Earth will be safe when we feel safe in ourselves. I […]
I love these verses… 16. May those who malign me, or harm me, or accuse me falsely, and others all be recipients of awakening. 17. May I be a protector of the helpless, a guide for those on the path, a boat, a bridge, a way for those who wish to crossover. 18. May I be a […]
My card of the day scared me a bit today. But, as in all things tarot and oracle, one can not take a death card literally! Fortunately! I have had more than enough of death and loss over the last several years, and I don't need any more of that right now. The Angel de […]
This is the first card I drew from my new deck of oracle cards, the Oracle of Shadows & Light. And if this card is any indication of how this deck is going to work for me, I am on the right path. I couldn't have picked a more needed card for myself today. The Violet […]
I have been thinking a lot about the questions I asked of the world in my post last night. I wanted answers, answers on where the line was. I finally realized that, no matter how much I want neat and clean answers, there aren't any. Because life isn't always neat and clean. And trying to […]
Although I don't think she intended it to be this way, my friend Renee has become my spiritual guru/life inspiration. She is on her own spiritual/life journey at the moment and she is so open and sharing with it that it is inspiring. I have been in a rut for so long, long enough that […]
I have barely blogged at all this month, but it certainly isn’t for lack of trying. Every time I sit down and open up my admin panel to write, my mind either goes blank or I can’t think of anything to write that is fit for public consumption. I miss writing because my blog is […]
Happy New Year! It is 2010, and I can only hope that this year is better than last! Having Soldier Daddy home is definately a good start, however!! ♥ We rang it in with good friends and adult beverages at midnight, after a night of laughter, so much that I was pretty sure that at […]
Sometimes it amazes me just how divisive religion and faith can be. I hate the assumptions that people sometimes make based on superficial, often incorrect, ideas of what another’s belief system is all about. I have always believed that most religions share the same core values and are, in essence, just different paths seeking the […]
