5/27/22 Aloha Amazing Person, How are you doing?   Just looked up what ‘Aloha’ actually means, and it’s not just ‘hello and good-bye’, it’s also “love and affection”.  What a wonderful way to greet each other; I pray for that for all of us!  Whew!  Survived last weekend’s retreat where I gave a talk and… Continue reading Dissociation and Being in The Middle

5/19/22 Hi Wonderfull You!  How is your day going?  Are you acknowledging at least some of what is wonderful about you? I was hoping to get a new post up but haven’t had the time to put the usual 10 – 15+ hours of writing and obsessing and rewriting and obsessing and then editing and,… Continue reading New Beginnings

5/3/22 Hello Wise Being! How is your day going for you?   Do you doubt things you’ve done even though you truly believe you did what was right, but because the outcome wasn’t what you expected you won’t let yourself have peace about it? Seems to be where I’m at lately.  Or maybe having faith… Continue reading Letters of Truth & Letting Go of Control

Good Day Good Person, How is your week going?   Were there times – hopefully the vast majority of them – (or even a moment) when you knew you were ok?  Have you ever been fired from… Continue reading Resurrection

4/12/22 Well Hello Angel, How are you doing this week?  Do you celebrate Easter or Passover?   Today we had a little Palm Sunday presentation by the younger children of the church – it definitely ended up being more comedy than dramedy!  One of the ‘improv’ moments came when the child that was the only… Continue reading Becoming A Light In the Darkness

3/29/22 Hello Fabulous You! How have the last few days been for you? I’ve been having back issues, so thank God for chiropractors who know what they’re doing. I’m getting more mobile again (Hallelujah!) Have you ever said (or written) something that was questioning/exploring a topic that you thought, in that moment, you didn’t know… Continue reading Learning What Love Is, Part One
