~ W. B. Yeats
I’m not a “follower” of astrology, but MANY years ago something occurred that led me to respect the wisdom there.
Decades ago now, driving home on a snowy day, the roads were glare […]
By Debra Basham, on October 27, 2020 There are seasons in a marriage. I’ve heard a therapist say, “Every marriage has cause for divorce.” Not every day. But there are those days. ~ Deborah Berecz, Conflict as Catalyst™ Newsletter October 2020
In an email exchange last evening my dear friend who had asked me about any preference for a Presidential candidate wrote, […]

Recently, I included some information about transformation from J. Krishnamurti in my clergy “Insight’s” article.
Transformation is said to occur only when NONE of the following are present:

“At This Time”
Right now, where you are, are you aware?

By Debra Basham, on July 5, 2017 This morning as I am so grateful for making time to get my fingers on the keyboard as my “to-do-list” grows longer and my time-table grows shorter. I notice how relevant that is to all those who are in their later years. I have lived 67 years, and in this body probably do not have […]
By Debra Basham, on June 11, 2017 Namasté can be spoken both when greeting another and when taking leave. The spoken word is most often expressed with a slight bow while holding your hands in prayer pose — hands together, fingers pointed up, and pressing your thumbs slightly into the xiphoid process.
