The Mystery Calls

An Adventure always begins with a calling. A deep stirring in the soul that pulls at our very core, beckoning us toward the mystery. Perhaps it is this calling that drives people to invent, create, and step faithfully beyond their comprehension, driven by a knowing that at the other end of the unknown lies a revelation that will change there lives and the lives of those around them. I remember the day I first felt this calling. I was a young child embraced by the forest of the northern woods.… Continue

Daily Quote By Lynn Fishman

INNER PEACE CREATES FREEDOM.

"Responsibility does not only lie with the leaders of our countries or with those who have been appointed or elected to do a particular job. It lies with each of us individually. Peace, for example, starts within each one of us. When we have inner peace, we can be at peace with those around us"

Another New Song--Riding Around

Riding Around

Riding around in the country
On a day like today
Is a gift I give myself
For the rest of my life.
Most of my life is spent in doing things
That certainly don’t inspire my heart to sing,
But when I am here there is nothing
That I allow to get in the way
Of enjoying the beauty of this day.

New Song--Possibility Waits

Possibility Waits

Who knows what infinite possibility waits
For me around the bend?
Knowing the potential of each Holy Instant,
I go forth to meet my good.
I’m willing to be an extension of You
Wherever I find myself.
Use me, Oh Lord, to do Your will,
As I long ago agreed.
I’m willing to do what needs to be done;
I give permission to use me.

Pigs Plight

My daughter, and our family went to a petting zoo not long ago, the two little baby girls that are my granddaughter and great-grandaughter were having a ball. We took them to where the pigs were sleeping and they were allowed to pet them and we took pictures. The docent who was leading us told us that pigs are the cleanest animals of all, they will not deficate or pee in their own area. They do not eat a lot, nor do they eat everything and anything as most people think. The reason that they get… Continue

Daily Quote By Lynn Fishman

SEE THE LARGER PICTURE.

Focusing your life solely on making a buck shows a certain poverty of ambition. It asks too little of yourself. Because it's only when you hitch your wagon to something larger than yourself that you realize your true potential.

President Barack Obama

It's time to address the mistreatment of pigs through out the world.

Pigs are intelligent animals and deserve our prayers.

How can humans be so thoughtless to think that pigs on this planet want to even be here anymore, if ever.

Why on earth would anyone want to eat them now. They are being slaughtered by the millions.

Did they cause our illness or did we cause theirs?

My girl friend, by accident ran over 20 baby pigs last week. It was dark and she thought it was raccoons but it was wild pigs. They were running… Continue

The Lady Bug

I live in an area with a huuuuge amount of old people.

It's an area that was hyped up as a retirement area----and it's decrepit, aging, at times sad, and probably dangerous.

These super old people drive, and that makes it a risky adventure, on the streets here.

And, my Beach Buddy lives here too, although he is---absolutely---the youngest person here. He's in his very early 40's.

At first, he thought that all of the old people around here---well---he thought it was… Continue

Two Sides of Compassion

Empathy vs. Objectivity

Empathy and objectivity seem to be incredibly different at first glance. Empathy is all about your mirror neuron systems doing their jobs in the insula region of the brain, causing you to have experiences internally that match what you are viewing or hearing externally. You feel sadness take you over when watching someone experiencing deep grief and loss. You wince in reaction to seeing someone else being kicked in the head. When you see someone grasp a glass… Continue

Who's With Us?

Last night, my Beach Buddy and I played one of our tried and true Favorite Games.

It's called: Who's With Us?

Sometimes, we play it in the living room, or, other times we play it on the terrace.

The scene goes something like this:

We're hanging around, talking or not talking, there's a certain quality in the air.

My Beach Buddy will get this pensive look to his face, especially his profile, as he blows Black Cherry or Vanilla scented cigarillo smoke, suggestively… Continue

Spiritual Sister

Now why do I need to write about something that has been addressed a hundred times before? Well, this time it is personal and unique to me. This time it has touched home in a profound way and I simply must share it.

I had the privilege of knowing a most caring, kind, generous, spiritual woman and she was my best friend and soul journeyer. My experiences with her in the last weeks of her life will forever be imprinted on my soul.

As a Therapist and Intuitive Life Consultant… Continue

Healing Wisdom 02 May - Dealing with Fear

~ Franklin D. Roosevelt

"Fear is, I believe, a most effective tool in destroying the soul of an individual - and the soul of a people"

~Anwar el-Sadat

We are constantly barraged with stories that feed on our fears. There are two types of fear: healthy fear and unhealthy fear. Healthy fear is necessary when there is a real danger because it leads to… Continue

Living in Our Right Brain is The Key to Bliss

If you haven't watched Jill Bolte Taylor's amazing presentation on TED.......I feel it's one of the most interesting, profound, relevant and important speeches i have ever seen. I know we're all super busy but I believe this will be more than worth your time. It's about 18 minutes, but is the key to being happy. Truly happy ALL THE TIME. I think it's life changing stuff.

It's based on her book My Stroke of Insight.

I couldn't get the hyper link to work, but if you Google… Continue

~How much--is enough?~

How do we know how much is enough?

When we ask for protection to surround us, or when we ask for angels to guide us and protect us----how do we know that enough of them are there?

Do they take turns, or do they flip a coin, what?

I pray a lot, it's part of my daily routine.

I pray in the shower, some of my best praying takes place there, although I wonder how much of it works, when at the same time, I'm shaving my legs and end up with a bunch of nicks---

Or when… Continue

A Time for Everything

There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under heaven:

a time to be born and a time to die,

a time to plant and a time to uproot,a time to kill and a time to heal,

a time to tear down and a time to build,a time to weep and a time to laugh,  a time to mourn and a time to dance,

a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them,  a time to embrace and a time to refrain,

a time to search and a time to give up,  a time to keep and a time to throw… Continue

FORGIVENESS CRYSTALLINE GRID

SHARING

This grid came to birth whilst following a home course with the Holy Grail Cards of Janosh Art. In the third phase we were asked to make contact via our emotions with our disappointments and anger during this life. The concentration was on the Solar Plexus Chakra. The card that helped me to get deep by these emotions was The Victim with the Emotion… Continue

Beltane Benevolence

Today my favorite bank teller said, "Oh, it's the first of May ~ that's called May Day, isn't it?" And I had a perfect opening in which to explain to two intrigued bank employees (the teller next to him was all ears, too!) that the secular version of these holy days leaves a lot out.
