Spiritual Guidance for Creating a Better Life!HOW DO YOU LOVE?
Lately, we have been thinking about the Sedona spiritual retreats concept of detachment. How does one love, especially people, without any attachment to them? And precisely, what does it mean to love without attachment? Does it mean one does not care deeply and...
I AM OPEN TO NEW ADVENTURES!
I invite you to take a moment to ask yourself, “am I allowing fear to hold me back or do I step out and into adventure?” We must allow ourselves to step out of our comfort zones and to take chances and risks. Let us help each other to question our ‘comfortable’ lives...
I AM FULLY PRESENT
“It is a mistake to try to look too far ahead. The chain of destiny can only be grasped one link at a time.” Winston Churchill Many of us send and receive inspirational messages via email and facebook when a new year has just begun. Perhaps some of us make the...
THIS TOO MUST BE GOOD!
Sometimes we forget that there is only one power in the Universe and it is God-Creator. Perhaps in these troubled times it is especially difficult to understand and to know that there is only one power. It is easy to feel safe, secure, and grateful when everything...

Out beyond ideas of wrong doing and right doing there is a field. I’ll meet you there.
