The practice of friendship Starts at any age And affords us an opportunity To feel love in our heart As we extend it to another

I reside with my inner trust always looking for inspiration like a well-worn stuffed animal

Music soothes us and connects us in ways we can’t even begin to understand. My mom died at the age of 102, three months shy of her 103rd.

We can choose each morning to do something different, and that can trigger the butterfly effect.

As I make my way through my day, I often find that I’m thinking of people from my past. I don’t mind sharing the here and now.

I want, in fact - to borrow from the language of the saints - to live "in grace" as much of the time as possible.

Outer peace begins with inner peace. Inner peace expands to include communities. I am a protest.

I am a work in progress. Partially finished and awaiting completion. Allow my life to unfold in its own time. I know how to find my way.

I’m calling all angels to support me In this present challenge of acceptance

Silence is my friend I visit every day always there waiting to slide its arm around my shoulders to welcome and settle me in.

We are in the great dismantling and recalibrating of our planet. It’s a global change and we’re living it. It’s not fun. It’s hard work

It’s difficult to be in a heart-centered space among mind-centered activities. My key is to leave the door open between the two.

Our minds are powerful entities. Our intentions can create our physical reality. How do I respond to a medical emergency?

Yesterday I knelt on the ground. I held prayer and peace as the seconds wore on feeling the infinity of struggle surrendering every moment

A promise to myself I make In this pause of self-respect for a moment to breathe in silence and reflect.

I find myself sitting in discomfort, fidgeting, unable to make a decision. I don’t think I’m alone.

Know with this intention right now we join together in the power of love and presence of each one of us

As I practice silence, my hearing is more attuned to listening on the inside

Awareness of who we are varies as the colors in a rainbow. Awareness changes as we grow through life experience.

On these beautiful days, walking is a way for me to move my body, breathe in nature, listen to the sounds of life around me
