Creative writing is one of my favorite things to do. But, writing my autobiography has proven to be one of the most challenging. It’s not for lack of content. I could probably write three different versions – one about surviving a severely dysfunctional family, one about beating the odds, one about encountering the paranormal and…

Complexities of Being Gemini
“This is going to sound crazy,” Peach whispered hesitantly. “Whaaaaat? Nooooo, there’s never any crazy coming from you!” Beech drawled, then yawned. If Peach can count on nothing else, she can always be sure Beech will deliver on sarcasm. On that one front, Beech never disappoints. Peach and Beech are the twin voices inside my…
Something to Know About Jesus
In ancient hermetic philosophy, there are seven universal laws. When one’s consciousness is in harmony with these laws, one’s life seems to be in balance. Some people make these laws their religion, but for me they are tools to help me better understand my connection to God and the Holy Trinity. My life is only…
What’s an Empath?
It wasn’t until I was in my forties that I discovered Dr. Judith Orloff’s books. According to the self-assessment test (link below), I am a “full-blown empath”. Once it became clear that there was not anything actually wrong with me, everything was different. It was brighter. I understood so much more about myself and was…
Prayerful Meditation
When Jesus’ disciples asked him to teach them how to pray, he taught them what we now call the Lord’s Prayer. However, he preferred to pray in solitude and often went off alone to do so. This practice has become my preference, too. Simple, unscripted, honest conversations with God are precious to me. Once I…
What Will Today Bring?
I’m rather excited today. For Christmas, a friend of mine gave me a gift certificate for a reading from a Galactic Advisor. She thinks I’m a star seed and I’ll finally learn which star system was my home before this earthly existence. I have very interesting friends. Even if you don’t believe in such things,…
Darling, Just Be Real
I live with my family in a small, New England seaside town. It’s very quaint and pretty. For years I had dreamed of living in such a place. Other teenage girls had posters of Bon Jovi on their walls. I had maps of Boston. Then, at a time when I thought all was lost, God…
Internal Kindness
I had to go to therapy to learn how to be nice to myself. Before that, I didn’t realize what a horrible friend I was to me. I went above and beyond for everyone else, but when it came to me…well, pfft. I was indifferent. It’s like I just didn’t care at all. If anyone…
Let This Sink In…
The more I discover, the smaller I become. The more I learn, I realize how much more I will never know.
An Unexpected Encounter
In the area where I live, new age spirituality seems to be trendy these days. I am not trendy. In fact, I have always actively gone in the opposite direction of what is popular. Tolerating followers is not in my personal handbook. However, I am also not on the same wave length as traditional religions…
