While I appreciate the sentiment of “The World has Changed” I think it’s important for us to remember change happens all the time. We make all things new. You and I are changing this world at every moment. Yes it’s great and grand Barack Obama is now President of the United States but let us [...]

This week someone I really loved and cared about died. What it really highlights for me is nothing is permanent, nothing is stable.At this moment I feel extremely unsettled, like God reached down and shook up my snow globe, which is perhaps a good thing.Recognizing nothing is permanent, nothing is secure, really forces me to [...]

I know I already wrote a post about this but since it’s coming up for me again I decided to revisit it.Lately I’m finding it hard to trust in God/the Universe/My Creator. Lately I find it hard to trust in an amorphous thing I can’t put my finger on. I find it hard to trust [...]

I wish to be transformed. Really and truly. I wish to soar to new heights to realize my full potential and be the person I’ve always dreamed I could be. I wish to do great, be great, and feel great. And you know what? I can.I used to believe there were things about myself I [...]

I find myself constantly reacting. “She said this so then I felt this.” Or “this happened so consequently I felt X.” I’m noticing how not fun that is. How not fun it is to constantly go outside myself for validation/support/comfort/whatever. How not fun it is to feel like a passive player in life instead of [...]

Up until this evening I would have told you I need x, y, and z to be happy. I “have” to have such and such in order to experience joy. I “need” so and so to be in my life to feel fulfilled. Tonight I experienced a shift. Tonight I did some healing and realized, [...]
