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.  We should automatically forgive ourselves, but perhaps not forget our observations. Remembering can be useful as the new year stirs up much self-searching.  Naturally, we want to evolve. I am currently working to discover and replace dysfunctional thoughts and beliefs with ideas that support the potential of who I really am.  I believe we are all spiritual beings capable of living happy, healthy, loving, peaceful, abundant, and productive lives.  I believe we can do and be anything we want, because we are a part of All That Is.  I’ve been catching myself increasing momentum in an unwanted direction by telling painful stories from the past.  Most of these tales seem to center around health. For example, when a friend tells me about a physical issue that I’ve had, my tendency is to let them know I understand by telling them about my experience with it.  Together, we share a conversation that is focused on physical misery, instead  of on our body’s amazing ability to heal itself… Uh oh, have I done it again?  I certainly don’t mean to speak negative words over myself.  It is my intention to stay in the present with an assumption of a positive future.

    It’s a little hard to write my note this month because it seems like I should be writing about my Dad. But instead, I’m busy writing songs. If I could pick one thing that I like to do the most, it would be songwriting. Time stops, the world fades away, and I am one with…

    In honor of my birthday this month,  you should please excuse the pun!  Yep, it’s time to celebrate.  I’m putting away the tax prep work and taking a break from teaching.  No performances are booked in the near future.

  • One Person At A Time

    Recently I got swept up in the state of the world.  It’s not like me.  I’m a kind of “head in the sand” person who doesn’t generally partake of the news.  For the sake of my amazing recovery from chronic depression, that’s the way it needs to be.  So anyway, since mortal reality reached out…
