I worked in a job that required me to be focused at all times. I kept order in the office while my life was spinning out of control.

I’m getting tired of dragging around all this old baggage of emotional pain.

I am more than my experiences. I am the collective vessel of my soul. All of me is needed to go forth.

I feel so deeply it hurts to be human and at the same time the hurt is being human. Humanity is reacting. Humanity is waiting.

A puddle is one experience and a sinkhole is another. As I age, I recognize the difference. No matter whether it’s a puddle or a sinkhole...

We're learning we are all connected. What more proof do we need than to examine our heartache for what is happening around us. It all hurts.

My inner critic left yesterday morning. I have practiced silence for many days and have become more observant of my inner life.

I say to my teacher I am not ready, I say to myself there must be more, I say to my friend you must be mistaken

I’ve survived another wormhole in my life. Every July I relive the downward trend of my daughter’s life culminating in her loss in September

I’ve leaned over the edge and fallen into my heart. It happened without me realizing it. I feel so deeply and wonder if I fit in anymore

In the early morning hour when my awareness is alive I am grateful to remember my practice of silence

Worry is an old friend who steps onto the carousel of uncertainty. Sometimes it brings its old pal, the finger picker, & then we have a ball

These 4 words are the recipe to my day. It’s like approaching a diving board with the intention of diving deep into a pool of water.

We are all searching for ease in life. The purpose of the dark night of the soul is to purge that which no longer serves

My heartbeat seems to have no thoughts or judgments, but it reacts when I feel stress, when I feel love, when I feel loss.

I blew out my carburetor. I started with my grief-stricken heart and pushed past exhaustion until I felt my deep loss.

I learned a rule to live by: if I am not centered, my job is to get centered. If I am, my job is to help others or be creative.

I learned to speak love during our time together. I also learned to trust and the power of vulnerability.

As I navigate through my grief days, I am familiar with U-turns. It’s so easy for me to beat myself up for not thinking clearly.

Surrendering is letting go of the pursuit to understand everything. Surrendering is about acceptance. Surrendering is inquiring with honesty
