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 and grabbed my attention, I’ve not been my new and improved happy self.  Oh how an underdeveloped piece of me would love to “fix” the whole world, but there is no hope to control anyone but myself. The good news is that after taking a lengthy look around, my intention has strengthened.  Now, more than ever, I want to do my best in each moment to align my mortal self with my highest inner being.  I try to greet life’s difficulties with a faith that despite outward appearance, everything is unfolding for the greater good. This attitude gives me increased peace of mind and expanded understanding.  It’s easy to see that we are each a part of All That Is.  That means every possible perspective must be honored.  Love and acceptance is the answer, and yet it is much easier to understand this truth than to live it. One day at a time, I am working with dedication to release the unwanted; to think, speak, and act in accordance with my most uplifted self. This is my humble way of doing my part to help, because it seems to me our world is never going to find peace, love, joy, and harmony until the larger majority of it inhabitants find those qualities within.  It’s a daunting goal, but we can change our global society One Person At A Time… By the way, it is my  pleasure to report that since my focus is back on the wanted, I’m feeling happy again.

    The Holidays were cause for resentment when I was younger.  It felt like ‘Tis the Season to be Busy: Just one great big “To Do” list.  Now, I look forward to decking the halls, and having many gatherings of friends & family in our home.  My students love the decorations, and we enjoy learning seasonal songs…

    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…

    Although there are many albums to my credit, this will be the first one that is ALL original. For awhile now, inspirational songs have been falling down on me like a soft spring rain. At this point, I have more than enough to make an album. I feel like a giddy child romping in a…
