Four-Year Angelversary
My husband, Jack, passed away four years ago today, and, in order not to have a hard day of sadness, I said a prayer last night asking Jack to help me to have a happy day. I set my intention to try to focus, not on his death, but on our 54 years of loving…

Gifts of Love
Yesterday I was with my group at the Independent Living Center, and our discussion was so uplifting. I volunteer there hoping to arouse healthy happiness through the sharing of positive memories, and our discussions go in every direction one could imagine! I love it. It’s a mental free-for-all. This visit, I threw out the topic…

“Gratitude Unlocks the Fullness of Life…”
“Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos into order, and confusion into clarity.

A Small Group of Souls
Recently, I’ve been volunteering at an independent living facility and feeling the great connection with them in a way I never expected. It all started with wanting to help the elderly remember happy memories and write them down into a collection. I thought they’d love to accumulate a memoir-like folder so they would have it…

A Summer Solstice Sign
It’s definitely a record-breaking heat dome hitting right now with real-feels over a hundred. The cool dry spring and all my favoritie gardenia blossoms are long since done blooming just ahead of Mother’s Day… except this year. On Father’s Day this year (last weekend), there was a single, unexplainable gardenia on the gardenia bush. It…

A Post Father’s Day Reading!
Every now and then I miss my late husband, Jack, so much that I ask my/our medium, Gail (GailandSpirit.com), for a reading. Maybe it was Father’s Day that just triggered the grief again, but I was so needing it. I had my reading today, and Gail was amazing. My late husband’s energy is always so…

Remember the Frog?
Well, this time it took three, strangely related, and synchronistic events to get my attention from my late husband’s spirit. It’s been over three years since he passed, and his signs were overwhelmingly prolific the first year. In fact, I wrote a book describing them all (You Don’t Know Jack!: How Antics from My Late…
