All that matters is this moment, right now. Whatever you are doing at this very moment is all that matters. In the illusion of time, right now is all that exists. Make it count. Like plucking a string that extends infinitely through the universe, your thoughts, words and actions have an effect. Let it be…

My Ancestry Experiment
Almost three years ago I decided to put in a bit of effort to trace my ancestry as far as I could. I knew next to nothing about my grandparents, but with just their names and the birthplace of each of my parents I was able to locate enough public records to fill in a…
Winter Cheer
It’s official. We are in the doldrums of winter. It’s a terrible time of year for people who suffer from seasonal depression. I know several people who do. I used to, as well. I spent several years on depression medication. While it helped, I didn’t want to be dependent upon it for the rest of…
Do Something Nice for Your Future Self
A couple of years ago I started a personal tradition of doing something nice for my future self. This usually includes picking up something from the end-of-season or holiday clearance rack and putting it away to be discovered the next time that holiday or season comes around. Last Fall, my husband and daughter helped me…
Forgiving Yourself
How many of us feel ashamed of something in our past? My guess is all of us. Did you know that shame is the lowest emotion on the scale of consciousness? When I was a child my mother would say often, “Shame on you!” I doubt she knew just how effective that was. It took…

We fight with each other, curse others and struggle within ourselves because we weren’t given a winning hand, or in many cases even a fair chance. And no one seems to care about your chances because they are…
Forgiving Failed Relationships
As an empath, the hardest thing for me to witness is someone with a broken heart. I wish no one ever had to feel that level of grief and pain. But, then, if no one ever felt heart ache does that mean they would also never actually feel the depth and fullness of real, pure…
A Series on Forgiveness
Forgiveness is something that is gradually and continuously learned over a lifetime. In this 5-part series I will share what I’ve observed thus far on the importance of putting it into everyday practice for ourselves, those close to us, our community and beyond. Part 1 – Unfair Circumstances At some time or another we all…
Book Recommendation – Alien Intelligence by Solaris Blueraven
Recently, I had the immense honor of speaking directly with Solaris Blueraven, who is a published author, public speaker and radio show host specializing in fields of covert technology, AI and synthetic telepathy (which only touches the surface of her accomplishments). It was one of those moments that, if I mapped significant events on my…
