(Thanks Aunt Barbara for the reminder!)
The first day of  school our professor introduced himself and challenged us to get to  know someone we didn’t already know. I stood up to look around when a  gentle hand touched my shoulder.
I turned around to find  a wrinkled, little old lady beaming up at me with a smile [...]

Mike Kepka did this great little mini feature on me in the Chronicle and SFGate this weekend. After reading some of the comments, I found myself outraged by the ways in which we choose our lives to be so filled with negativity. If this were the only place I saw this in my life, perhaps [...]

I’ve been reflecting on the past few months of my life and I have come up with little names for what’s been going on for me in each month and the theme of the month. I figured if I called a theme *in advance* rather than naming it as a reflection, perhaps I’d get more [...]

(For Pritpal…) Close your eyes (after you read this, of course) and feel into the part of you that believes in the wonder of the universe, of life around you. Find the part of that, no matter what goes wrong or how much turmoil is around you, has Hope beyond measure that, no matter what, [...]

When I was a kid, I used to watch my Dad jump rope. He pretty rigorously worked out with the jump rope multiple times a week and started doing cool tricks with it — double jumps, triple jumps, spinning in the air and arm crosses to name a few things. I was never quite that [...]

My dear friend Jennifer, who is also my favorite female massage therapist, just expanded her business to include a bunch of new services. She’s just expanded her business to Marin and is offering a discount. Check out her offering below which includes her contact information.

I’m always inspired when people I know can achieve levels of success that get them brand recognition around the globe. Congratulations to friend Joshua Hoover and his band, Kapahaki, for their recent coverage in the “What We’re Listening To” selections in the Reggae genre. They will be having a CD release party this Friday night, [...]

I’ve told this story a few times recently and it has struck me that it’s some what miraculous and the coincidences don’t really seem to be too coincidental if you look at it as Divine Intervention. Now that would be a funny way to look at it except that I do think that Spirit did [...]

I was on the street the other day and was off in my own world, pondering my own sense of scarcity around money specifically. I was at the corner of 4th and mission waiting for the light. I was looking left and this guy came up to me on my right and asked, “Can you [...]

Sister Unity begins, “Well of course I’m strange. That’s the whole point.”
I particularly enjoyed the first portion of this video because the message was, IMO, a powerful reminder of how both being in our stability and allowing ourselves to step out of our comfort zone is, in fact, a gift to our development and our [...]

Zen forwarded this my way and I thought it was a great tip for anyone who is in this sort of situation where you dropped something down the drain and don’t want to call a plumber or use a wrench to get it out. I was at a hotel contemplating this just the other [...]

May today there be peace within. May you trust that you are exactly
Where you are meant to be. May you not forget the infinite
Possibilities that are born of faith in yourself and others. May you
Use the gifts that you have received, and pass on the love that has
Been given to you. May you be content [...]

Let’s see - - the quick summary of my past 6 weeks. . .
April 14-17, 2009 I moved everything out of my old place. About a third of it went to my new office/art studio/sewing lab. Through a bizarre twist of fate, my bed ended up there as well which is convenient if I [...]

My inbox and Facebook pages were littered with reference after reference to Susan Boyle. If you don’t know who this woman is, you’ll want to check out the video below so you have your own point of reference. I would actually invite you to do this before reading on, because my own talk about things [...]
