Thoughts on Christmas (2009)
I have a few precious moments of serenity as the boys have run down to the neighborhood park for a football game, and my sweet husband has retired to the haven of our bed for a much needed nap. It is Christmas, again, and we were up late last night wrapping presents...
The Gift of Acknowledgement
Have you ever noticed that when you are having a hard day and you are able to tell someone about your feelings without being judged, criticized or fixed, that you realize you feel soooooo much better? This is something I have been working with these last few years. A...
Integration of the Parts
I’ve received some interesting responses to my last post, mostly in private. Seems I’ve hit a nerve in initiating a conversation about healing wounds of the heart. I sometimes think of trust as a fabric, our original design, a picture of innocence, beauty and...
Trust is Thicker than Blood
I feel guided to write about the blessings and difficulties with family. I have been out of touch with my parents, off and on, for over 20 years. There have been times of contact, almost always at my hand, in which I had high hopes that things would work out and that...

Both/And
Holding Oneness and the Parts; the Balance of the Universe at Work The see-sawing of opinions on either end of a far-ranging spectrum of late has me thinking. Since the nature of this universe is balance, the further away we are from one another on the scale the more...
Healing the Inner Masculine
My journey thus far of embodying the Sacred Feminine has led me to a powerful conclusion; She has to come to balance first in order to draw the masculine to partnership (and therefore balance). Balance is predicated on their proximity to one another, and if you think...
