Presence of Angels

It has been a very full week. Early Tuesday morning I met my sister and brother-in-love at the hospital. She was having an angiogram, with the possibility of angioplasty or a stent, if necessary. After she was prepped for the procedure, we were able to sit with her as she waited. She mentioned that her […]

Tonight is one of those times when tears are just so close to the surface. Perhaps it is because 57 years ago yesterday I had a near death experience. Things that happen to you change your world view….

Perhaps it is because this morning I got to work with a man, and a woman, and […]

What Is My Contribution?

I woke up yearning to get out on my bike but clicked on the video by Mary Reed (The Unwitting Mystic). I spent the next hour hearing, feeling, knowing I was right where I was to be.

I have spent time with Mary Reed in person, and I have followed her video offerings. Mary […]

Everyone Benefits or Everyone Suffers

Faith. It’s all about believing. You don’t know how it will happen. But you know it will. ~ Anonymous (AwakentheGreatnessWithin.com)

Sometimes I think it could be quite helpful to be an astrologer, or a psychic, or a saint. Especially when life presents challenges.

Overcoming Addiction

Start by doing what is necessary, then do what is possible, and suddenly, you are doing the impossible. ~Francis of Assisi

“Addiction, it has been said, starts in pain and ends in pain.” This is the opening line in the Editor’s Note in the January, 2018, edition of GUIDEPOSTS. The title is ‘Overcoming Addiction.” […]

Your Place in the Family of Things

A few days ago, the mold saga continued as late in the evening our friend ripped up carpet preparing for solid flooring installation in the manufactured home she bought here in our park and found this:

(see Lessons from the Mold)

She was having a very difficult time navigating all of the uncertainty. […]

Simple Understanding

Once upon a time… there was the simple understanding that to sing at dawn and to sing at dusk was to heal the world through joy. The birds still remember what we have forgotten, that the world is meant to be celebrated. ~Terry Tempest Williams

June has been a very full month…. On June […]

Overcoming….

In wonderful ways, life is always providing us opportunities of overcoming amidst chaos. I met a man, Captain Ed, who had a brain aneurysm in 2014, and describes himself as a walking miracle. After hearing some of what he has been overcoming, I asked him, “What were you saved FOR?”

He went on to […]

Red and Blue

I love color, and I am also fascinated by shapes. In my next life I might like to study sacred geometry. This image came up when I searched “What color does blue and red make?”
