Being Happy
This sad-looking hound is my granddog, “Happy.” I love his name and his perfect life. He has two other “brother-like” dogs sharing his wonderfully comfortable home, a private back yard, two squares a day, treats for various thrills and good behavior, and love like you wouldn’t believe. All of his needs are taken care of…

Ego Mind Mini-Breaks
We know our minds are ever-vigilant… protecting us so we can survive in this physical life. Our egos are all about how we think what our lives should look like…our beliefs leading to our expectations. It’s part of being physical. We spend a lot of time bracing for what or who we should watch out…

Patience, Grasshopper
Remember the old Karate Kid movie with the wise Japanese master, Mr. Miyagie, and his protege Daniel (Ralph Macchio)? I know, it’s an oldie. Mr. Miyagie would always say to Daniel, “Patience, Grasshopper,” suggesting the young boy needed to relax and focus on their fundamental mission or purpose at hand. The reference to a grasshopper…

Divine Collaboration
I was talking with my publisher, Lucie, and learning how the process will unfold to get my manuscript into a book with our message for others about continued consciousness in the afterlife. And it is “our” message since my husband has had an unbelievable amount of input and push ever since he passed. I know…

The Richness of Live Conversation
There are so many ways of communicating now, that picking up the phone to just catch up is the least favored in a typical, working person’s busy day. It takes time, something that is a real commodity. But it’s also a loss. There’s nothing like time invested to get to really understand another person and…

His Little “Hellos”
It’s been a year and a half since my husband passed, and I was afraid I would stop getting signs from him the way I have been getting them up to now. Last night, as I closed my eyes to go to sleep, I mentally asked him not to stop letting me know he’s still…

Emotional Rainbows
It always amazes me how white light breaks down into the entire spectrum of every color, in every hue and shade. It reminds me of people and their full array of emotions. We have our souls’ white lights of pure love, and our physical ego shadow sides that vary in intensity and frequency as we…

A Fragrance of Love
This past Sunday morning, I was thinking about Father’s Day and telling my late husband how much I loved him and missed him. I was feeling very weepy, but reminded myself that his energy, spirit, or consciousness was around me and knew how I felt from the other side. I do feel like Miss Greedy…

Joyful Reminders
I make the effort to swim everyday, or almost everyday when the weather allows. Yesterday, I noticed a little lizard on top of my small statue of Buddha about a yard from the edge of the pool. As I swam towards it, it faced me and didn’t scurry away. It gave me a giggle at…

Monkey Mind
The mind is a truly amazing miracle, isn’t it? And our minds can’t even wholly wrap around the miracle that it is! Thoughts are generated with or without our permission, and on a constant basis. Intangible, creative, often fear-based for survival, our thoughts race and relax, sometimes as a result of high brain survival activity.…
