Standing Alone?

Great change is sweeping across and within our planet. We are all feeling Universe’s nudge to make dynamic changes within our lives.

Humans are creatures of habit, and when confronted with having to make changes, can experience uncertainty and even fear. This leads to a response of holding tighter and to resistance on multiple levels. With this resistance comes the cycle of emotional, and even physical, pain, which can manifest as the body responds.

I liken this to the hydraulics at the base of a waterfall. For those of you who have rafted, you will know exactly what I mean. For those who have not, it is the water dynamics at the base of the falls where there is a churning or turning. If you get caught in the hydraulics, it causes you to go up and then to be pulled back under, over and over and over.

This manifests in the emotional body as despair, and can bring on the feeling of standing alone against all odds. Our state of confusion, fear and resistance, clouds our thought process, and the potential for making poor choices is high. Decisions made in desperation can only lead to wasted motion and more pain and delay the state of being in the flow.

It helps if we take a moment to look at the shift as an opportunity for growth, instead of the notion that we are falling victim to some unjust universal prank or punishment. Then we can remain floating at the surface with a clear view enabling us to see opportunities as they present themselves. It truly is all about our perception as stated in my post The Sky is Blue…

To take this a step further, focus on the blessings in your life and express genuine gratitude in sacred moments, such as prayer or meditation each day. When you aren’t focused on what you don’t have or think you should have, something amazing happens--you begin drawing to you the energy of this strong focus. Now you are co-creating waves of positive potential, rolling like waves onto shore.

The key is to remain in a space of faith and trust, not pushing. Wait for clear direction to be revealed in Universe’s timing, which is impeccable.

Are You Wise or Do You Just Know Stuff?

What is wisdom? As humans we are bound by an innate need to constantly move forward in our soul’s growth. Just as the salmon are urged to move upstream to create new life, so we are compelled by forces beyond our selves.

For some this is a conscious need, for others it lingers deep in their subconscious. Even so, it is just as moving and compelling and draws to us experience after experience.

Do we learn from our experiences or do we doom ourselves to repeat the same lessons over and over?

This compelling may lead some to attend course after course or read book after book in their quest to awaken and to figure out the great cosmos within and outside their selves.

Accumulated knowledge does not make you wise.

Wisdom comes from practicing the knowledge that you know to be true. Not because someone has told you so, but because it resonates in the deepest part of your being.

Wisdom is revealed in embracing and expressing the knowledge that you have gathered, and in your actions toward others and yourself.

Wisdom comes in making time each day to practice the art of sacred space.

In truth, Wisdom is the sacred expression of knowledge

The Sky is Blue no it’s….

You may ask what our perception has to do with anything. You may say, life is what it is and that would be true, but how we perceive life is everything.

How we perceive our environment greatly influences our experience.


In the field of Quantum Physics, research has shown that just the act of observing an event alters the outcome, even if no physical action is taken on our part. It would stand to reason that our mental and emotional state during the observation would determine whether it is a positive or negative experience.

On this plane of existence duality exists. Hot/Cold, Light/Dark, Happy/Sad, Love/Hate, and so on, you cannot have one without the other. For us to trust, we must decide that neither is good nor bad. To embrace each with equal enthusiasm, no matter what the circumstance, brings us to the middle path, being present. This one change creates a fuller experience.

Embracing this concept allows us to take responsibility for the experience and know that we have only drawn to ourselves that which was needed for our soul’s growth.

It also empowers us, eliminating the need to feel victimized, because we are the creator of our experience on every level.

Unexpected Journey

I was surprised when I received guidance from Source, to take a trip to Santa Fe, New Mexico. However, I have learned to pay attention when guided in this way, just like the old commercial: when EF Hutton speaks, everybody listens.

So, the trip was taken on trust and faith, its purpose waiting to be discovered. It is because of this trust and patience in Universe’s timing that synchronicity abounds in my life.

Nature’s beauty stretches before my eyes
As if painted from an artist’s pallet
And stone spires reach toward Azure skies

Ancient Tai temple created by wind and rain
Feet of Sphinx lay en masse
Listening closely I hear voices from the past.

Revelation- my visit created an opportunity to be interviewed for a local TV show, produced by Mitch Friedman called Mind over Matter. What an amazing experience that was. I found a kindred spirit in Mitch and am grateful for the chance to get the word out about my work to a wider audience. When the interview is available I will be posting the YouTube link on my blog.

I connected with a woman named Judy Quay, a beautiful spiritual being, who is a talented singer/songwriter. Judy had made contact with me about my work last year and it was wonderful to spend time with her and discover our mutual love of the path.

Last, but not least, the energies in Santa Fe and Taos created powerful energetic shifts within me. I return home knowing that this trip has opened new avenues, and I am waiting for them to be revealed.

There is nothing like coming home from a long journey, even when you know that your home is temporary.

Allow yourself to float like a feather on the water, shifting and moving with the current without resisting. Take comfort in knowing we are always where we need to be at any given moment and doing exactly what we need to be doing at any given time.
