Think About This

Y’all pretty much know that three years ago I wrote a book and published it myself. I think it’s a good book with a compelling message, and I wanted it to get to the at-risk-for-runaway kids (and their adults) for which it was intended. Alas, I had no idea what to do with it. I [...]

Here’s a problem you might wish you had. I have so much free day time in my retired life that I hardly know what to do with myself. Honestly, I’ve been wandering around wondering for a good long time now. I’m not talking about chores that need me to do them. Those don’t count. I’m [...]

. . . is something I thought I would never want to do. But growth happens and times change and the old advice about never say never still holds true. In January I began taking a once-a-month mediumship class under an excellent instructor, and I was immediately hooked on exploring this new, um, skill, I [...]

I channel Spirit regularly, but you already know that. Some of you don’t like knowing it, but there it is. But my blog is all about my truth, from all areas of my life. No secrets here. Not anymore. Channeling simply means that I have learned to step backward in my own body and allow [...]

In my channeling class last week we had a great evening considering this new year of 2012. Three of my colleagues in the group prepared presentations for us. Donna is a numerologist, Tiffany reads Tarot cards, and Shannon channels messages from the spiritual realm (like I do). They all received remarkably similar information using these [...]

It’s Christmas, and I’m a sucker for all the holiday specials on TV. One of my staples for years has been the annual show devoted to happy, poignant stories about adoptions of children who are languishing in foster care. Something horrendous has happened that makes it impossible for them to remain within their birth families. [...]

A lot of people will tell you that they have a poor innate sense of direction, or even none at all. You may or may not believe them. But please, when I tell you I HAVE NO INNATE SENSE OF DIRECTION, it’s the absolute truth and you should believe it. I know THWAM is a [...]

MESSAGES FROM THE BODY (Their Psychological Meaning), by Michael J. Lincoln, Ph.D. This truly is a Very Big Book, 726 pages, 8.5 x 11, spiral-bound. It’s got some physical heft to it, as well as a hefty price. It might very well turn out to be worth the money, or maybe not. I haven’t decided [...]

Watching my kids parent their kids is fascinating. They are all doing a phenomenal job, but I can’t help but notice the profound differences between their parenting style and mine.  (Yes, we were a parenting unit, but I’m going to make this one about me.) Thinking back, I seem to have valued the fostering of their independence above [...]

I’ve told this story many times before, but I’m inspired to tell it again today.  What inspired me?  It was THWAM.  When he came into my office this morning for our this-is-how-the-day-begins kiss, he said, “Well, here we are, another day older and deeper in love.”  The surprise of it knocked my socks right off, and got [...]
