A Spiritual Journey Through Creativity
This month 12 years ago I saw my friend Katy for the last time. She was in town for the holidays and doing some fundraising for the organization she worked for in Phoenix. During her time at home with lots of people vying for her time, we found a morning for the two of us… Continue reading Even so
Thanks to Daylight Savings Time I’m waking up early right now – I haven’t adjusted to my new wake up time. Rather than waiting for the alarm to go off this morning, I decided to just get up and take a longer walk with Denali. Although it was cold, it was a beautiful morning to… Continue reading A Walk in the Dark
I recently finished Brenè Brown’s latest book, Braving the Wilderness: The Quest for True Belonging and the Courage to Stand Alone. Once again her words spoke right to me – into the center of my being, into the light of my soul. Her definition of true belonging: …the spiritual practice of believing in and belonging… Continue reading A Paradox
If you read many of my blogs, you know I’m a Rob Bell fan. His latest podcast did not disappoint. In fact, it gave language to what I’ve been wrestling with over the past year or so. The reference to this quote is not familiar to me – I know of Chariots of Fire, but… Continue reading We are the Committee
In the last few weeks two different doctors came to the same conclusion – premature ovarian failure, or POF for short. I think an extra “o” should be added – PO(o)F seems more appropriate. Seeing the positive sign on a stick, poof. Going to the doctor’s office and comparing with other pregnant women, poof. Feeling… Continue reading PO(o)F
Some hashtags are funny. Some are useful. But, some are just a phrase to hide behind. I’m so tired of the hashtags, the need for them – they are becoming hollow and trite. #prayforVegas #prayforOrlando #prayforParis When will they stop? When will the need for another hashtag end? The thing about hashtags…they sterilize the event.… Continue reading Hashtags
As I think I’ve mentioned before, I often listen to podcasts while I’m sewing. Because of my work schedule, I don’t get as much time to sew these days, so I’m a little behind on my listening. Tonight I had some time for myself and finished up the second step of a fairly large quilting… Continue reading Curious
I don’t really know where to begin here. I went to my last (for now) breathwork class with Beth tonight. More powerful energies moving around. Then I pulled onto 62nd street driving west and I gasped at the sight of the moon. Yes, the eclipse on Monday was spectacular. Amazing, in fact. But, you know… Continue reading Holding
A couple weeks ago I went to a breath work class at my yoga studio. I had actually started a blog about breathing earlier today, but I’ll save that for later. After going to a breath work workshop this afternoon, I feel there are more pressing things to process. Detachment – looking at an experience,… Continue reading Detachment
Another year has come and gone. It’s hard to believe 37 years have already passed. When did that happen? How is it possible? At the start of this year I wrote a blog reflecting on the past year, but that was more events and experiences. For today I want to reminisce a bit and honor… Continue reading 37
