Several months ago, a group that I am closely involved with gathered for a meal and at the end, we challenged each other to grow outside of our normal comfort zones. The wonder (and agony at times) of being with people who know us so well, is that they can see our strengths but can… Continue reading imagine that!

Loving the vision
A few days before Thanksgiving, I was out on a run and suddenly had a vision that I was up in a hot-air balloon, throwing gifts down on the houses of people as I floated by. It was a beautiful vision and I felt happy while I was imagining the scenario. For several days after,… Continue reading Loving the vision
A happier place…inside
I started getting a stuffed-up head one day last week, and by the evening, I had a full-blown headache.

She went on to tell me, what she thought some of my real talents and… Continue reading as we think of ourselves
Who we really are
I have been getting a strong message lately that I need to slow down mentally, and step into more and more relaxation in everything that I do. There is a lot of energy "in the air" right now and many people are feeling it, including me. The other day, I was sautéing onions in a… Continue reading Who we really are
Heaven on Earth
I went out yesterday evening to shut my cars windows before it rained. The sweet guy who mows our lawn had just left and as I walked around the back of my car I noticed that the rear window was shattered. A stone must have flown up from our driveway and hit it. I am… Continue reading Heaven on Earth
