My e-mail address is in my book, so I often get e-mails from readers. This morning I wrote a response to a reader who commented on how much she loved the book (God Speaks to Me) and asked several questions related to her situation (the details of which I won’t go into here for purposes [ Read More ]
Today, while walking the pier with my 7-year-old daughter Varonika, we caught a glimpse of an unusual experience for us. There were people on the pier fishing, as usual. The difference is that this time, one of the lines that was in the water was yanking this way and that. The man whose line it [ Read More ]

Today I was talking with a coaching client when the subject of process came up. Something came to me that I thought I’d write about here: Life is 90% process and 10% payoff. I’ll be climbing Mount Kilamanjaro in February of 2009. It would be wise for me to prepare in advance for the climb. [ Read More ]
Over the weekend, I received news that a friend’s husband had passed, which was surprising to her because he’d been recovering from cancer treatment. In a sense, the guards were down and relief had set in when the determination was made by his doctors that he was cancer-free. His transition was most unexpected. Why does [ Read More ]
“Persistence overrides ineptitude,” I said to a good friend of mine tonight who was disenchanted with an error his publishing company had made with his most recent book. Thankfully, the book hasn’t been printed yet and he can get the error corrected before the book goes to print. We laughed at the statement when I [ Read More ]
Today I received an e-mail from someone who had read my book, enjoyed it and had a question I hear often. My book is about how to listen to the still small voice within and presents true stories of what happens when we do, and when we don’t. Here’s the question (paraphrased): how do I [ Read More ]

Right now, there are several opportunities before me that I can take advantage of. I could do this, or that, or that. Then again, I could do that… The problem with this predicament is that I’m a Libra and don’t make decisions quickly or easily. Even choosing one pair of shoes over the other takes [ Read More ]
My head is spinning. And it’s because of my obsessive nature. When I decide I want to get something done, it’s got to be done yesterday, in its entirety, regardless of the enormity of the project. This little proclivity of mine has been hanging around for years. I become fixated on a project and forget [ Read More ]
Gratitude is powerful. Powerful enough to stir our dreams out of the dormancy of thinking about it and into the reality of full-blown manifestation. How? Before I tell you about that, let me share with you a slice of life from my past. Years ago, I read a most meaningful book, even life-changing. The title [ Read More ]
I’m reading a book by Rev. Michael Dowd about evolution. It’s called Thank God for Evolution. Thank God for Evolution: How the Marriage of Science and Religion Will Transform Your Life and Our World Years ago, if someone would have told me I’d be reading a book about evolution and enjoying it, I would have [ Read More ]
My 18-year-old daughter called me this morning and told me she’s definitely going to live with her dad. She had been visiting him for a couple of weeks, and has decided to stay. I’m elated, and a bit concerned. She and her dad have never been able to get along for an extended period of [ Read More ]
I’ve been having a personal issue with tithing. The question that comes to mind most often: how do I tithe when there are other obligations to be met and writing out a big tithe check seems counterintuitive and financially counterproductive? And the next thought: yes, I’m writing the check, but I don’t feel completely and [ Read More ]
I need guidance. I could do it all on my own, however, I’ve tried that approach and well, let’s just say it wasn’t pretty. I know I need guidance. So I’ve chosen to remember my spiritual umbilical cord… An umbilical cord sustains life. I am sustained by the Love of God. An umbilical cord delivers [ Read More ]
This past Friday, it was my intention to experience and emanate peace, and to infuse peace into everything I did. Well, when I arrived at Mr. Tire, the peaceful notion I had just had a few minutes earlier was already being challenged. I sat in the customer seating area waiting for my tire to be [ Read More ]
Here it is, the middle of July, and Dasher, Prancer and Vixen come to mind. It’s hot outside, and inside (due to my disbelief in artificial air conditioning–I only use it when it gets very uncomfortable) and my mind is on the fleet that tugs Santa and his toys across the Christmas sky. Then the [ Read More ]
My affirmation today is: God is the Lens with which I see. This came to me the other day as I was ruminating on the concept of seeing God in everything. I don’t remember the particular trigger that got me thinking along these lines, but I know what it was akin to. I keep hearing [ Read More ]
Clarity is a good thing. I figured out something this morning. I can be a little slow in getting my lessons, and this is no exception. I’ve been reading it in success books for years, yet I just got the concept on a whole new level this morning: My every day habits create my character. [ Read More ]
Breakthrough is what happens when you’ve been working on an idea for a long time, seemingly getting nowhere, or moving at a snail’s pace, when all of a sudden, something happens that causes everything to come together in an instant. It happened to me yesterday. For a long time, I’ve been holding the vision of [ Read More ]
