Wisdom in everyday life

  • The Irony

    Opened my email this morning to a letter requesting donations, I get this a lot due to my once being married to a multi-millionaire. It was funny because the organization doing the asking, was the one that already tried to wrap itself onto my financial house. These were the people ever ready with the sentence… Read more

  • We are starting again

    There are many reasons to write a blog, one being so you can be seen and adored by fans for your wit and so-called wisdom. This is not that kind of blog, as a matter of fact, this will be the kind of blog that you will either desire to read or you will burn… Read more

  • What’s your hidden agenda?

    Can there be a hidden agenda when you find yourself; sitting, standing or ‘talking’ with a human that can barely lift their head? Now, all eyes are down, phone in hand, zombie like gaze induced. We know at once, what’s important to this human. Its status, its social standing, its virtual life. While eating, visiting,… Read more

  • What’s the point!

    I’m not sure what the point is anymore. I’ve been writing and writing and just like teaching if no one is getting it, why continue? I see pain, I have gone through pain, the entire country is going through pain and yet everyone seems stuck in their own limited mind-set. It doesn’t matter what you… Read more

  • Are we wrong?

    It’s in the searching for answers that we become so desperate that we accept what is almost right or we overlook what we know to be wrong in a “it’s going to be ok”, kind of way. We will turn off our internal truth marker just to “make things work”. Such a waste of our… Read more

  • Spiritual discipline

    I use to describe spiritual discipline as getting up early every morning to do my sadhana practice. My sadhana is normally the time I spend chanting as I am not as interested in moving first thing in the morning but I am totally in love with getting up early to chant. I have been a… Read more

  • nothing is ever done

    One of the fallacies taught in my childhood was the fairy tale idea of happily ever after, or the Disney movie version of cut as the wholesome story concludes with a stellar finish. These fairy tales spoke of a world of balance and the triumph of dark over evil, followed by that’s a wrap let… Read more

  • The in-betweens

    This picture is a perfect representation of my today. I am in-between states, in-between moods, in-between worlds. In other words its the day right after a healing training I just completed. It’s that in-between time of making a huge leap from one state of being to the next state of becoming. Time to take that… Read more

  • Difficult days

    There is never going to be an early warning sign that big trouble is afoot. It will blindside you with its horror leaving you reeling with bruises all over your heart and soul. It is, I am sorry to say, a part of our growth and the forward push for a person on a spiritual… Read more

  • Live consciously!

    It would seem we are living consciously. You look around people are doing their work going about their lives but if we but scratch the surface most everyone is asleep at the wheel. How many times have you been driving your car only to realize you have been driving without even being aware of it?… Read more
