  • Quelling the inner bitch

    Have to say, I was surprised by the number of people who don’t have an inner voice. And then there’s others like myself that have one and sometimes it’s a negative Nancy just waiting to say something about the, what I am doing or not doing. Of course this is one of the many reasons Read more

  • So many mind traps, look out…

    Most people refuse to be in charge of their own thinking. They let outside sources do that for them. Those outside voices have opinions on everything and they gladly share, over and over. They are mind traps laid for you to get stuck in. Tic Tok and Facebook and all social media, makes readily available Read more

  • Grandmom-ing autistim is important

    My eldest granddaughter is autistic and as a Grandma, my mama bear stuff went into overdrive when my daughter wanted to main stream her into public school. She’s non verbal and looks like an angel, I couldn’t help but think it was a bad idea. Of course I raised a mama bear and should have Read more

  • Mom-ing did it

    What experiences in life helped you grow the most? I’m one of the lucky ones who got pregnant right after high school and at 18 my belly grew but my self did not. Who at 18 is ready to be a parent? After he was born… things changed for me. In a red neck world Read more

  • A negative spiritual group experience

    Describe a phase in life that was difficult to say goodbye to. I was part of a spiritual group that I found when I was very ill. In the beginning like most things, it was a miracle and such a positive experience. Unknown to me was their awareness of the money in my life. I Read more

    I want to give you a bit of background. I’ve had this blog for years and I stopped blogging this last year for 2 reasons. 1. I had become so disenfranchised with nearly everything I saw and was experiencing. The chaos of the pandemic and then my move from Santa Monica back to Minnesota, which Read more

  • OOPs…I did it again

    Or is it ugg…anyway, I let an entire year go by without saying a word. No wait, I said many words…I only wrote in my journal and those words were the sound of screaming, words and sentences paragraphs and pages of screaming. Venting has its place but I feel its time to write again, but Read more

  • Mother’s Day

    As a mother, this day represents something other than “yay, I’m a mom”. It’s not a touchy feely kind of thing. It is the weight of responsibility, and one taken at the moment of conception until death do us part. It is not funny, cute or sweet, it’s painful, awful, and can be bitter as Read more

  • Back to basics; yoga, chanting and prayer

    And as I think back over the last 7 year cycle of mine it was a very real, very painful 7 years. In 2015, and in short fashion I lost my father unexpectedly, my eldest son’s relationship blew up, he went back to jail. I lost connection with my eldest grandson and horribly, my daughter Read more

  • My Living words

    As a spiritual person I know just how powerful words are and the heavy duty affect they have on our lives. As I have talked about in my writing and my book I used sacred words to put my broken self back together in my 40’s. I continue to use sacred words to maintain heath Read more
