Hi!


“Change is the law of human experience… The infinite Mind is forever conceiving new ideas, and the infinite law is forever producing new forms. In the midst of this flexibility I live, move, and have my being. Every static condition in my life must be the result of my failure to think new thoughts.


“Freely and joyously, I let life flow through my experience, bringing new events to pass. I am a growing consciousness in God, and better conditions are constantly appearing for me to appreciate.


“I am free to change into a greater person, and I now let God’s greatness manifest in me.”


—Excerpt from 365 Days of Richer Living, August 28 by Ernest Homes and Raymond Charles Parker


Intellectually, I know that Life is precious, to be savored, and not to be wasted. However, for quite some time now, all I could feel about Life was “blah.” One might point to numerous reasons for my state of being but all I know is there just wasn’t a fire in my belly, a strong spark in my soul. I was stuck.


About ten days ago I had a psychic (soul) shift and am no longer feeling “blah” about Life. I am feeling joyous, enthusiastic, adventurous, empowered, free, and other such energizing descriptors. It’s like a switch was turned to “On.” I feel renewed, but more so, reborn. Again. It happens throughout Life, not just once a year like in springtime!


Sometimes a person experiences transformation in one fell swoop and sometimes it is through multiple events, relationships, activities—the possibilities are infinite, like Spirit. I can ponder what had been transpiring in my life to make the shift, but they are externals: having a new financial cushion despite being unemployed since I made the decision to collect social security; experiencing more self-care time; affirming “I release all negativity to Mother Earth to be transformed for good”; meeting with a group of women over coffee (aka kawfee) every Wednesday morning; connecting once again on a regular basis with my best friend; getting my fix of azure waters by watching movies and series filmed in Fiji, Martinique; etc.


But I think it was really my putting out to the Universe a request, saying a simple-sounding prayer: “Help me!” Help me with my physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual well-being. And, making the request throughout the day and while drifting off to Dreamland. And then Spirit, The Great Mystery, The All That Is decided it was time... Time for me to feel alive (‘cause I’m not getting any younger) and Life is to be lived, time for me to manifest more of Spirit’s greatness. So in Spirit’s time, it occurred. Rebirth. The spark of Life strengthened.


Rebirth can happen at anytime, anywhere. When I open my heart and mind to the Infinite, ask for help, expect good, I feel my innate joy and my life improves. I go higher and higher. In this present moment, I feel so very grateful, so very alive. The Adventure continues and only Spirit knows where it is heading…


I hope you are feeling happy, joyous, and free—it is your birthright. And, if you’re not, please trust Spirit and ask the Universe for help.

When I listen to the song “(Your Love Keeps Lifting Me) Higher And Higher,” I imagine it refers to the love of The Great Spirit… What do you think?


Here’s the version recorded by Jackie Wilson.

Waitress Dances with Baby Allowing Mom to Enjoy Her Meal

Read this account of a mom (bigbravenomad Instagram account) traveling alone with three children and the help she received at a restaurant.


It takes a village. This amazing woman gave me a chance to eat my entire meal while it was fresh. She doesn’t know me or my kids. But she did see I was alone with 3 kids & that the baby was restless and in his “throwing everything phase.”


I kept apologizing for him throwing everything. Instead of being upset, she just came and picked up the baby and walked around with him. She danced with him. She took him around with her while she waited on tables. She was gentle and sweet.


I was traveling to Bequia as a solo parent with my 3 kids & this woman’s little kindness was so good for me mentally and physically. It turned my entire day around honestly.


So, I hope the world works in a way that this makes it around to her so she knows that her help is still being appreciated. Women supporting other women because it takes a village.

“… life is a constant state of motion and adjustment. 


… I move forward knowing my innate resiliency is supporting me as I face the unknown with faith and courage.

You, Me, and Spirit


I was a devout atheist until 34 years ago when I "came to believe" in a Power greater than myself. Thanks to hearing the novel idea (well, at least it was to me!) that one could choose their own concept of God—and name too (Spirit, The Great Mystery, All That Is, etc.)—and the workings of synchronicity, I embarked on a new way of thinking, a new way of living, a new way of being in the world and with others. It impacted all aspects of my life and relationships.


Since that time of commencing my conscious spiritual journey, I have endeavored to remember The Presence in all that is, all whom I meet, and all that I do—including working with clients in my own business, academia, and the corporate world. I strive to be of service and to nurture the human spirit in all environments.
