I’ve Decided.

February 14, 2012

Because the truest and most important love, is self love.

And because I get to choose…

“I’ve decided to be happy
I’ve decided to be glad
I’ve decided to be grateful
For all I ever had”

Here is the U-Tube link for the song above, Kinder.

“I know I am blessed!”

Happy Valentines Day!


Wishing you happy and empowering choices!

This Being Human

February 2, 2012

I am learning to be a human being. This is not as easy as it sounds. Somehow when they dropped off the instruction manual for that, my neighborhood got skipped.  All my life I have been a human doing. And this human-doing thing has worn me out.  It’s not a sustainable way to live. It’s [...]

Victim or Leader?

January 25, 2012

First, my apologies! Yesterday, the RSS feed for my blog sent out an old post from the Fall Equinox of it’s own volition. The first line said, ”September is a time of transition.” Most folks, I suspect, just deleted the email and went on about their day. A few sent me emails saying, “Did you [...]

A Very Auspicious Beginning… It’s Chinese New Year!

January 22, 2012

Dragons guard the roof of a Taoist Temple When I first celebrated the Chinese New Year, the circumstances of my life were difficult. I was a single mother, self employed and raising three spirited and somewhat troubled teens. I felt unsupported and anxious most of the time. My life was careening out of control. I [...]

Every. Single. Nano-Particle.

January 12, 2012

Travelling.   Teaching.   Thinking. Taking it all in. Turning everything over. Endeavouring to see with deeper, clearer eyes.

Dreaming In the Dark

December 21, 2011

In the ever changing constant, that is the turning of the year, the Solstices are the farthest point in the arc of the pendulum at either end. Winter Solstice is the longest night. A demarcation line, one year moving naturally into another. Winter is the time of dreaming in the dark. The journey inward to [...]

What’s the Big Deal?

November 28, 2011

It Happens Three Times a Year. From our vantage point here on Earth, Mercury, the planet that rules communication and travel, the planet that is closest to earth and moves the quickest, slows to a stop and appears to move backward. We call this Mercury retrograde. We’re experiencing it right now. So, what IS the [...]

Pure Creative Potential

November 23, 2011

More than twenty years ago, on Thanksgiving day, I was taught to perform a version of a Native American Ceremony, called the Corn Bowl, by my teacher, Grandmother Bernice Falling Leaves, the leader of the medicine lodge I belonged to. There were almost forty of us at the Thanksgiving dinner table that year. There was [...]
