Last year was one of the best years of my life. I embraced it and still relish in all of it but truth be told January 1st all hell broke loose and my life went from sunny skies to a tornado touchdown or at least it felt that way. I thought for about 60 daysContinue reading “Let the Wind Blow”

Nothing is as Scary
I’ve done a lot of scary things in my lifetime. I left home when I was 17 years old with a brand new job and brand new bills all in the same week. I was scared to death. I had a baby after unknowingly getting pregnant on birth control pills. The delivery was an emergencyContinue reading “Nothing is as Scary”
God in Drag
I heard an interesting podcast the other day and there was a statement that made me stop and think, research, ponder, and meditate. The statement was “Everybody is God in drag.” To be in drag refers to the performance of exaggerated masculinity, femininity, or other forms of gender. So aren’t we in drag when weContinue reading “God in Drag”
The Snake Dream
Several weeks ago I had a nightmare. I usually don’t meditate much on dreams but this keeps occurring in my mind so I’ve decided to share it with you and what I believe is its meaning. I’m wading in muddy creek water. The water is hitting somewhere between my mid-calf to knees. All of aContinue reading “The Snake Dream”
Same Old Same Old
I asked someone the other day, “How are you doing?” They replied “Same ol’ same ol’.” We’ve heard that reply or something similar at least one hundred times. I’ve said it and you probably have as well. But listen and watch what you say, “Same old same old” equates to nothing changing. And if nothingContinue reading “Same Old Same Old”
Expectation is the Root
One of the most challenging lessons I believe we keep repeating because we are not getting it is “Expectation”. Expectations are attachments to outcomes from people and things. Every day I tell myself “Don’t expect” because I know if I expect then I have an attachment to how I want the outcome. And if theContinue reading “Expectation is the Root”
The Reviews Are In
In February of 2022 when I applied for a scholarship at Enneagram Georgia I was so excited about the possibility of getting a scholarship. When I tell you I prayed, I prayed every day and I watched my email every day, all day to see if I was a recipient. When I finally got theContinue reading “The Reviews Are In”
My Religious Trauma
The following was written by Dr. Glennon Patrick Doyle. I have followed and “Liked” 99.9% of his posts but this one is the most relatable. I spent the first 12 years of my life in an institution that met 3 times a week. They had a church sign which made me believe they were safe.Continue reading “My Religious Trauma”
A Change Won’t Do You Good
Sheryl Crow did a song in the mid-90s called “A Change Would Do You Good.” I’m partial to the song even with the abstract lyrics, I’ve applied the course to my life many times. Change is often good. Change is imperative if we want to grow in our environments, like from Blackberry phones to smartphones.Continue reading “A Change Won’t Do You Good”
Power of Prayer
I follow Stella Parton on Twitter, for those of you unfamiliar with the name, it’s Dolly’s sister. She recently tweeted asking her followers “Have you ever wondered if people who say they will be praying for you really are praying for you?” I replied to her “Nope!” and with the scripture from Matthew 18:10. I’mContinue reading “Power of Prayer”
