You ARE Love
You ARE Love
From the beginning of time, Love was responsible for life’s creation
and remains our reason for being.
The essence of our soul is love; love gives life purpose and meaning.
There are many aspects of love, from going out of your way to avoid hitting a turtle
to cooking for a friend, giving a hug when it is most needed, a smile to a stranger.
The expression of love is essential to our Being, for it is our expression of the Divine.
Don’t be afraid to go there; let go of judgment and limiting beliefs and love will flow as naturally as a waterfall.
There is nothing more Sacred than love.
There is nothing needed now more than love.
You hold the key, for you ARE Love.
Ruminations III
This being Human is a guest house. Every morning a new arrival. A joy, a depression, a meanness, some momentary awareness comes as an unexpected visitor. Welcome and attend them all: even if they’re a crowd of sorrows, who violently sweep your house empty of its furniture, still, treat each guest honorably. He may be clearing you out for some new delight.
Season of Change
Nature knows it's time to rest and reflect. The birds, animals and reptiles all have seasonal rituals to prepare for change.

Acceptance is Love in Action
. Presence is being fully in the moment, it is deep listening, it is compassionate listening, it is acceptance of where someone is in their life journey…
On the nature of human nature…
God help us, but we have a tendency to forget. Forget the beauty of a summer morning while rushing to work,
You have the power
For as the Wizard of Oz said to Dorothy, “You’ve always had the power, my dear, you just had to learn it for yourself.”
Whose Dreams Await
Flowing gently over verdant realms
Where I lie down with dreams not realized,
Envisioned beauty delicate as hummingbird wings
So fleeting is this garden of Earthly delights.
Once memories awaken, hope beckons
Like shattered glass, carefully navigated
Leaving me penchant, wanting more.
Careful what you wish for dear one,
Dreams, like flowers, must always be cherished.
Encountering Brick Walls
Confronted with doubt as metaphoric brick walls
There’s no choice but to act.
The Difference between Being Grounded and Going to Ground
For much the same reason we ground electricity, humans benefit from being grounded.

Hello? Does Anyone Hear Me?
We all long to be heard, understood and loved. Babies cry to get their parents’ attention. Toddlers have tantrums for much the same reason - they want to be heard. Pay attention to me! As adults, it seems our need for attention and love hasn’t changed, we still crave that reinforcement.
