‘Twas three weeks before Christmas and all through our house, not a person was stirring, but me and my spouse. Two stockings were hung by the chimney with care; Too bad no one would be there to share.  Ev’ry night we rested all snug in our bed, while visions of vaccines danced in our heads.  Each morning we arose to shelter in place, glad that our home was a warm, comfy space.  Glittery garland, lights twink’ling on the tree, we nestled on our cozy couch for Christmas movies on TV.  Gifts ordered on line, season’s to-do list quickly done, there was a whole lot less work and much, much more fun.  It left plenty of time for Christmas love, peace, and light; The deep understanding that ev’rything will be alright.

    I’m bringing all my experience and it’s wisdom (or not) to another year.  Like everyone else, my only limits are my own mistaken thoughts and beliefs.  They are just a product of involuntary exposure to society’s flawed suggestions, along with my knee-jerk reactions to life’s challenges.   Yes, I am innocent, and so are you. …

    I’ve been asked to tell my story at the Unity Castro Valley 10:30 church service this coming Sunday 9/9.  Yes, I was brave enough to write and post it on my website’s Inspirational Page and Face Book timeline, but sharing it live?  Scary!!!  Actually, I’m sure it will be fine if I ask Spirit to speak through me, and remember that…

    Photos of Mom & Dad are proudly displayed on my mantel in honor of their special days.  I like to believe they’re watching over me, and trying to help from the other side.  Hopefully they feel as proud of me as I felt when “my” kids played their pieces at the Annual Spring Recital last month.   My…

    It’s high time for a demo of my inspirational/Spiritual Songs.  I’m waiting with bated breath for a shipment of finished CDs from U.P.S.  It’s called Three Healing Songs written and performed by Cynthia Bythell, and Discmakers sent it out on the 27th of last month.  So, where is that nice guy in the big brown truck?  A bunch…

    The first day of Spring is coming, and so is my birthday.  This year’s celebration is special because I start the day by playing and singing my latest incarnation of my old song The Wish Planet for a very small congregation of loving listeners at The Castro Valley Unity Church.  It’s a safe place to…

    It’s that time of the year when lesson cancellations run rampant.  Summer vacations definitely take their toll on my  teaching income.  That’s o.k., life is full of trade-offs.  When business is overwhelming, there’s lots of money. But, if it slows down to a dull roar, there’s more personal time.  When I was young, I worried if things were slow, then complained that…
