Waking Up To Hope, Transforming Our Reality One Human Being at a Time

The act of self refinement is an act of magic.

As each of us reaches out with our heart and open up into the Universe, we may feel vulnerable or exposed.

There is truth to our vulnerability, our fragility, but for what we risk we stand to gain something transcendent.

Grateful for Hope

Last week after an afternoon of talking with people who work to free modern day slaves and assist survivors of human trafficking - I made a cup of tea and began watching the last part of a documentary about a tragedy that killed 10,000 children from a rural village in China.

Near tears i understood suddenly why so many people feel overwhelmed by even attempting to pay attention these kind of issues, when so many others come to our… Continue

Today I smile...

Today I think of those around me with a smile in my heart. At times it is hard stepping back, watching and allowing those I love and cherish to walk in pain and sadness. I would like to take it away from them and store it in my back pocket, yet I understand I cannot. I realize that the experiences are for their highest and greatest good, and no matter what that experience is, it is an opportunity for them to learn from if they so choose.

I know I will be there to hold their hand and… Continue
