  • Holding Grief…

    A spot in my heart is holding grief for all affected by the horrific California fires. I’m not there with them or among them, but I can pray that they receive help when and where needed, gather courage to face a ravaged view of the future, hold hope for renewal and rest in comfort from…

  • Siren Song…

    “Listening to the siren song of more, we are deaf to the still small voice waiting in our soul to whisper, ‘You’re enough.’” Julia Cameron in The Artist’s Way; A Spiritual Path to Higher Creativity.  I’m not surprised at the serendipity of reading those words on December 31. Cameron’s path is all about synchronicity. We are reeling…

  • A Bouquet…

    I recently shared a moment with a stranger in an unorganized and overstuffed sales rack. She held up a dress and asked if it was too wild. What? No! The classic style and muted tones of a floral theme were asking to be worn. I said wearing it would be like wrapping herself in a…
