  • Are you a human being…

    This is a much repeated phrase that needs more repeating because it has constantly gone past the minds of all the human doings. We are doing and doing and doing, all the while claiming our being. Here’s a line for you. If you find yourself sick, ill in any way, you have separated yourself from Read more

  • See them as children

    It doesn’t take long to get disappointed with humanity. Turn on the news, read a paper, horror, after a while there is for me a decided need to separate self from “them”. I am not like “them”. I walk through the streets of Santa Monica and I see all manner of life and life forms, Read more

  • Being real

    As a woman with a mouth, meaning I say it like it is and I am not into sugaring coating things for the masses, if you don’t get it or like it, move on! The problem is trying to be a part of spiritual communities that pander to their community rather than teach, because 1) Read more

  • It’s a new year

    As per requested, I guess, how else do you explain it, I spent the first 10 days of the year on my back, over the toilet, on my knees, praying for death. God has an exceptionally good sense of humor and a high tolerance for my screaming into the universe, no matter what “they say” Read more

  • Are you speaking to a women with that mouth?

    I have been taking some time off from the spiritual. I went to NYC with my daughter and left my computer in LA. I purposely sat everything I was doing down because my heart was growing weary of what I was hearing in the world. Nothing but women being maligned. The men are going after Read more

  • The end is near

    The end of the year that is… We are heading into the time of deciding what to plant in our mental garden to make seedlings of things and ideas that will gestate during the winter months for completion in next year’s spring. So many people want the instantaneous gratification of I think it so it Read more

  • I’m fine

    Don’t you get like that, just wishing people could see there is no real way you could be fine yet you are, fine, that is…just fine. After they ask you know they don’t really want to know if you are fine because they need you to be fine. So you are, just fine. But inside Read more

  • People being people

    Could be anywhere on the planet. There is no context for you to decide whether you ‘like’ these people or not. They walk upright, head over the shoulders, feet on the ground, just people. People smiling and friendly. Living life where they are. What makes us so afraid of “others”? We all want to eat, Read more

  • Kindness of strangers

    There is no way to tell where a person is from just by looking. If you are in a big city anywhere on the planet it has become harder and harder to see who is who and what language they might speak. Having words of any kind on your shirt doesn’t mean you know what Read more

  • Power of a woman

    Eventually women will realize that we need to stand united and not divided. The days of walking over the heads of other women to get something you deem worthy, are over! The days of bullying other women is OVER! We will only succeed standing together. I am tired of power plays, negative back biting bullying Read more
