Yesterday I was walking around our pasture and hay field (10 acres) and asking myself WHY I think of myself as ‘A FIXER’ in general. I have such a broad background in so many different aspects of life, that I am what might be considered a ‘handy-person’ who can FIX all sorts of problems aroundContinue reading “The Fixer”

‘INNER PEACE’ at 40% Off
Wow. The things I find in my email folder. That’s probably a bargain to find INNER PEACE for 40% off. It really is. So thanks, I needed the chuckle this morning. Surprisingly it came from the Jung Society offering lectures or something similar at discounted prices. I would think that ‘INNER PEACE thing’ would beContinue reading “‘INNER PEACE’ at 40% Off”
The Driving Forces of Our Lives
Been thinking a lot about many things lately—some I have control over and some I don’t. What I do know is that ‘change’ is a game shifter for everyone because change makes you recalibrate all aspects of your life—it makes you step back and reassess your previous life direction and your current game plan forContinue reading “The Driving Forces of Our Lives”
Believing in Yourself
In a world of constant turmoil where your patience has long run out and you find that your limited finances are sadly dwindling in solidarity with your patience—while increasing chaos and mind-numbing media cacophony scatter your remaining wits, with friends and loved ones backing away from your personal crisis situation in self-preservation—there comes a gradualContinue reading “Believing in Yourself”
Like Sea Glass
Just sharing the awesome image above and the poem accompanying it. *** I want to age like sea glass. Smoothed by tides, not broken. I want the currents of life to toss me around, shake me up and leave me feeling washed clean. I want my hard edges to soften as the years pass ,Continue reading “Like Sea Glass”
Not So Magical After All
Let’s see, about a month ago I wrote about Winter Magic, but also mentioned that by mid-January it was the opposite. How prophetic. And where we live in Iowa we aren’t even the worst temps and/or snows throughout the nation. Come on 2024—you’re better than this!
Winter Magic
“And above all, watch with glittering eyes the whole world around you because the greatest secrets are always hidden in the most unlikely places. Those who don’t believe in magic will never find it ..” ~ Roald Dahl ~Artist Credit : Elaine Bayley Serendipity Corner What can I say; it’s that time of year. EveryoneContinue reading “Winter Magic”
Clarifying Our Intentions
It’s easy to spend most of our waking hours following a mindless pattern of habitual behaviors. Everyday we have to do this or that, or get up at a certain time for jobs or kids, or exercise classes, etc. These are the habits that define our lives. They are like guard-rails on a highway overpassContinue reading “Clarifying Our Intentions”
“Summarize Yourself”
While reading a fiction book from the library, one of the book’s secondary characters, a gifted but older, acerbic author asked the main female protagonist some penetrating personal questions. She was the local academic community’s phenomenon—a young, doctoral-physic’s ‘coding’ genius who was attempting to computationally define the prime equation string for high-temperature super-conductivity. In theContinue reading ““Summarize Yourself””

The Akasha
Alberto Villoldo was pushing a new book or course, and just sent out a newsletter that really explained the ‘cosmic energy environment at large’ better than he had previously, so I’ll lift a few sentences from that to share here: “…Clearly the indigenous people of the area (Amazon) knew something about health that we WesternersContinue reading “The Akasha”
Mastering Oneself
“If I accept the fact that my relationships are here to make me conscious instead of happy, then my relationships become a wonderful self-mastery tool that keeps realigning me with my higher purpose for living.” ~ Eckhart Tolle (@ Earthschool Harmony) Eckhart has evidently been reading my personal journal since I keep writing about self-masteryContinue reading “Mastering Oneself”
