In the face of a tragedy, we often feel powerless. We fumble for the cause, the reason, and often something or someone to blame. Uncertain of our role, we ask “What can I do?” then falter at the silence that follows. What can we do? What is our role? Each and every one of us …
For the past 9 months, I have been saving turtles. Stopping to escort them to the side of the road, in the direction they are heading, with little regard for my personal safety on winding county roads. All this time, never stopping to consider they may be trying to help me. A couple weeks ago, …
The value of developing a healthy, loving relationship with yourself is that it becomes reflected in all areas of your life. Do you or anyone you know have relationship issues, trouble setting and keeping boundaries, financial issues, or a general unhappiness in life? Those are all affected by the relationship with yourself. When you are …
Little did I know that personal freedom comes from stepping up and taking full responsibility for life. This lesson was a gradual process that evolved as I became aware of exactly how little power I afforded myself, and how much power I gave away.

Life pulls out all these unexpected surprises, and the more open I become to the idea of “endless possibilities” the more surprising it becomes. First of all, I am not the kind of person who is keen on surprises … I’m a Scorpio who likes to uncover mysteries and find hidden truths, so it goes …
