Freedom is a beautiful thing, so much so that humans are willing to fight for it. America fought for and won her independence over 200 years ago. I wonder how many of us recognize our truest and greatest freedom: the freedom to choose. Freedom is a state of mind. When I think of Victor Frankl [ Read More ]
After having slept on it last night, upon awaking this morning and while still lying in bed giving thanks, something else came to me about commitment.

I was sitting comfortably in bed, propped up on pillows, reading Simple Abundance while sipping a warm cup of Celestial Seasoning’s sweet coconut thai chai, when I remembered that I hadn’t posted to my blog today.

Today I feel rushed. I don’t have to, I’ve done what I set out to do. Yet, I still feel this need/compulsion to rush. There’s a lot going on this weekend for me, including participating in a gala on Saturday night and graduating on Sunday from Inner Visions Institute. I feel rushed and a tad [ Read More ]

This whole blogosphere thing is fascinating. I’m in new territory. I went to Technorati to register my blog. I understand that by doing that, more folks will find and read what I’ve written. They told me to create a post and add this link to it: Technorati Profile So I did. To me, it looks [ Read More ]
This morning in my prayer and meditation practice the idea of spiritual principles came up, and it dawned on me that spiritual principles are both timely and timeless.
