Holding Sacred Space

Walking through a doorway at the public library, I greeted the gentleman stepping the same way. “Nice smile,” he said.  We talked about the storm  moving in on the wind, and then he said, “Peace be with you.”  I returned the sentiment.  A tiny healing was sent out between us, and in that moment, all [...]

Wake Up Now!

Here is an excerpt from Pocketful of Miracles, by Joan Borysenko January 14th What am I doing on earth, so far from Home?  I can no longer remember the bright fields from which I came, except in dreams.  And even these I forget upon awakening. My heart’s desire is to awaken from the dream of [...]

Waiting with Hope

We do a lot of waiting in our lives.  Standing in lines, waiting for the train or bus, waiting for the right job, waiting for the money we need to sustain us.  Yet there is a difference between waiting in hope and waiting in fear. We wait in fear when we become impatient with the [...]

Happy Thanks Living!

I saw a church sign this week that said, “Thanksgiving is nice but Thanks Living is better.”  I love the idea that every day I get up and walk in gratefulness for my life-  the people, the things, the blessings that fill me with joy.   So often we look at the things we don’t have [...]

Goodbye Dr. Sherlock Holmes

He came to me in a dream.  I hadn’t seen him for well over a year, and was so sad to hear of his death last August.  I wasn’t able to attend the funeral. He was my Sherlock Holmes, the doctor who spent countless hours on my case, trying to figure out what continued to [...]

Tell Your Story

Yesterday we celebrated family birthdays at my sister-in-laws house. As she handed my daughter her birthday gift, she handed me a gift too and said she couldn’t wait until Christmas.  Congratulations were in order now. It was a beautiful hanging angel that says,”Tell Your Story.”  I nearly cried because I was so touched that she [...]

The World Keeps Rolling

When I realize that the last time I blogged was two weeks ago, and I think of all that has taken place in two weeks, I am at first amazed at how fast the time disappeared, and then I am saddened by all the little intuitive writing hits that came and went without anything to [...]
