I’m thinking about belief this morning. We place our belief (trust, faith, and confidence) in so many things, many of which are so fearful. What do we really have to lose by placing more belief in magic and miracles? (By magic, I mean beautiful things that can’t be explained with human understanding, not a hocus-pocus type of magic.)

“But I’ll just be disappointed,” some might say. But Continue Reading »

I know it’s sometimes hard not to keep rereading the same chapters in our lives. Sometimes, I have to just stop and consciously look at what I’m doing and what I hope to accomplish.

Have any of my carefully placed bookmarks in all those chapters from the past ever Continue Reading »

I wonder if the caterpillar is aware that it is literally falling to pieces when it’s in the chrysalis. Does it become afraid? Does it think that things have really gone seriously wrong? Does it sit and plan how it will return to “normal,” inching along on the ground?

What is happening certainly can’t make any sense to it while it’s happening. Only as it finally emerges Continue Reading »

If someone tells me I am covered in chicken feathers, I won’t begin plucking; I would continue on because I know it’s not true.

I was determined to find something to assuage the pain and emptiness deep within, and I left no stone unturned in this search. I would get an idea of where I could find this ever-elusive happiness, put on my bullhorns, and forge ahead with everything I had.

I had deep feelings of despair from a very young age. I looked everywhere, and in everything that the world says, we can find happiness and fulfillment, but it always ended up like sand in my hand, leaving me with a deeper sense of emptiness.

I found an indescribable sense of peace only after I Continue Reading »

Our pup friends are such wonderful teachers. We can really learn a lot from them about how to treat one another.

Could you imagine if we Continue Reading »

Rest. Lay down your struggles and rest. If only for a moment. You are loved and cared for beyond comprehension. Right here. Right now. No matter what it might look like, this is still the only truth. Rest.

Your heart is always singing this song to you and only wants you to hear its sweet melody. It will never stop singing to you. Nothing you can do or ever have done could change this.

How do you rest your mind? There are many, many Continue Reading »

“Why am I here?” I asked inwardly.

“You are here for a reason,” the inner Voice that had become so familiar to me responded, and I knew I was right where I needed to be.

I had been living in a deep spiritual state for quite some time when every door closed, and I had the choice between living on the street or staying with my dad. Continue Reading »

Imagine you’re in a small boat floating in a crystal clear lagoon. The sun is shining, and all is well. Bam! Suddenly something hits your boat from behind. You whirl around, and anger rises as you see that it is another small boat.

But the boat appears to be empty. Where do you direct your anger? Toward the idiot who forgot to tie up their boat? The current?

You then notice a tarp in the boat that appears to be covering something. Curious now, you Continue Reading »
