When my children were small, I spent a good deal of time telling them stories. Their little faces would light up with the possibility of a story session and it was always a soothing “end of the day” event. They would curl up next to me, snuggling close to my body with blankets and thumbs [...]
The end of 2010 brought a lot for all of us… Now we are just past the spring equinox and a veritable shit storm has ensued. With all the terribly difficult things that the world is experiencing it’s not easy to feel like there’s much hope, but there is. You being you… is the most [...]
Last night, our son’s dog (really he’s a Saluki, which could be considered something like a human with four legs) couldn’t make up his mind where to sleep. Due to Ty being in town picking up his sweetheart, Red started out in our bed, but couldn’t get settled. Did he miss his human or was [...]
(written in the fall of 2008… ) My children… You all know how much I’ve been struggling of late. Some days I’m really clear and ok then others I’m sad or lost, angry or resentful, scared and alone.

Normally, we don’t watch any television nor do we have a large [...]
Today is the day before Thanksgiving and I’m sitting on the floor at the San Jose Airport… waiting for a flight. The idea was to get on the earliest flight to Salt Lake so I could see my sister and her family, my mother and have a few nights with my husband before he’s off [...]
There are times when no matter what you do, it looks like you’re just being difficult to others. But when your life is centered on serving truth, it means just that. You serve truth, not the social order or what other people want from you. This is not easy. We all love to share with [...]
Early the other morning my lover and I got to talking… the sleepy morning warmth of our bed, our shared love for each other and life itself… the quiet murmurings of our small kitty as she curled around our feet a little closer… all this contributed to our gentle discussion about why some people had [...]
Truth is defined by the Merriman/Webster Dictionary as; sincerity in action, character. An utterance of a transcendent fundamental or spiritual reality… Are you feeling a bit like there’s something brewing… Are you feeling the difference in the quality of your life from before? If so, you are progressing. There is great change afoot and none [...]
