  • Because ~ A Writer’s Rebel Soul

    Sometimes trudging through my word doc files is a depressing state.  Abandoned stories untold, the character’s corpses cluttering up the hard drive. I have been known to resurrect them, even years later. This usually happens after a visit to their perpetual state of limbo (their file) and I remember why I created them in the

  • Every-thing and No-thing ~ A Pensive Writer’s Experience of Non-duality

    I sat on the edge of my pool, feet in the water, notebook on my lap, pen scratching in an attempt to write, yet my efforts were met by an invisible wall of profound stillness. After a few attempts, I put my pen aside. I took a deep breath and turned my focus to my

  • The Heart Remembers: Love and Past Lives

    I’ve been looking through my old word doc files and finding things I wrote, saved, and basically forgot about. The piece below: The Heart Remembers: Love and Past Lives is one from what I am now calling: The Forgotten Files. It was written several years ago.    ***~~~*** The Heart Remembers: Love and Past Lives

  • Books from the Dead: Memories of My Mother

    “Do you want Mum’s old books?” my father said, his eyebrows raised in question. His gray-blue eyes met mine. “They meant an awful lot to her.” “Sure Dad,” I replied, “I’ll take them.” I knew the books meant a lot to my mother, although, I wasn’t exactly sure why, other than the fact she loved

  • Living a Magical Life ~ Demystifying the Mystical

    Living a magical life is a choice, much like the choice to be happy.  Life will not always accommodate that choice as things can and will happen that are not ideal nor desirable, but the choice remains. A magical life is lived with intention and understanding that one creates one’s reality. Creating one’s reality is

  • Embracing the Shadow ~ The Path to Becoming Whole

    Most who are on a spiritual path are familiar with the term shadow work.  It is the act of shining the light of our consciousness on parts of ourself we have rejected and pushed into what is called the shadow.  It is referred to as the shadow because it is unconscious; the parts of ourself

  • The Illusion of Separation

    When we awaken, we become aware of our true nature: we are immortal spiritual beings in a human body having an experience in a third dimensional reality. This is why many use the term, spiritual awakening, as it is the awakening to the spiritual nature of one’s being. Another aspect of that nature is: we are all

  • Through the Darkness ~ A Cathartic Trio of Books

    Hushing the voices, a dark quill shattered.  When I listed my books from last to first and realized their titles formed a complete sentence, I was stunned.  It was not something I consciously planned, and yet there it was: a cathartic trio of books wrapped up in a sentence. It seemed more like a message

  • Your Journey is not without Souvenirs

    Awakening was both liberating and horrifying, in my experience. On my journey, I gathered a lot knowledge and my awareness expanded. Some of what I learned was difficult and left me with unpleasant emotions. Some explained why the world is the way it is. Some was unspeakable and haunted me, and some was so unbelievable,

  • A Grain of Salt and Remember

    I write from my experience and understanding, offering my perspective, as we all have a unique way of seeing things. I encourage the reader to question, seek, and research. You may see things differently. The truth is cloaked in a web of deceit in which those who seek it are often caught. It can send

  • You Have More Power Than You Know

    Your mind is a powerful thing. It creates your reality. One person, on their own, usually affects only their reality, as they are but one mind. Large amounts of people with the same intent, however; can affect reality on a mass scale. And they do. Everyday.  Your thoughts can manifest things, both those you want,

  • Awakening

    Awakening

    Going into the most opaque and obscured parts of the darkness is not for the faint of heart, yet it is something we all must do if we wish to become enlightened. We must be willing to let go of all we think we know as truth and consider every possibility. It is the journey
