The Art of Living in One Easy Lesson of Seeing Anew
People are coming up to me these days thanking me for my contribution to Facebook and Twitter. Why? I ask them. “Because you’re so positive,” they always respond.

Read Moredolphin dreams we are ONE … breaking NEWS!
Just wanted to share the most amazing thing that happened to me recently, back in the winter months. I went to the sea, equipped with my trusty neoprene wetsuit, and slowly entered the frigid Gulf of Mexico waters off Siesta Key in Sarasota Since the water temp was below 60 degrees, I had the sea…
Read MoreYou’re told you have a brain tumor: How Does Life Change Then?
A dear friend of mine called the other morning to tell me, in tears, that she just was told she has a brain tumor and that they’re operating tomorrow! Today is the day after, and the news is good: the doctors removed the tumor, but I haven’t found out yet if it’s benign or not.…
Read Morethe Strongest 4-Letter Word There Is: LOVE
I awoke this morning thinking how the tendency of all people is to take up causes, varying according to one’s life situation, influences, and social-political-economic circumstances. Every discussion among people is like watching a tennis match. Back-and-forth, back-and-forth. Opinions, rebuttals, theories, arguments, and sometimes—not as often as one would hope—agreement. People love to banter, let’s…
Read MoreSharing the Dream … that always comes true
When I was little I would often dream of flying. I remember the sensation vividly: as if my life depended on it I would energetically flap my outstretched arms like they were feathered wings. Yet somehow I was able to always remain aloft, just enough! just barely! sometimes only a few inches, but enough to…
Read More7 of 9: doing the next right thing
How to stay pertinent. How to keep healthy, wise, and on top. Last night one of my all-time hero(ine)s, “7 of 9,” a Barbie-doll escapee of the Borg collective in the Capt Jean Luc version of Star Trek, played a top-of-the-game, military-corporate arms contractor. Every bit the same ravishing physical specimen she was 20 years…
Read MoreThe magic moment is always this one, here
Every time I look up at the sky I’m amazed at the vastness of our world. So much! So much to know, so much to do, so very many to do it with. It’s really quite overwhelming, isn’t it, if we allow ourselves to think this wildly, exuberantly expansive way. In order to carry on,…
Read MoreHow to Meditate, in answer to a friend’s request
This is dedicated to all those who are suffering from life’s challenges, whether of a physical, mental, emotional, or spiritual nature.

Read Moreeverything i do is a test, like this!
I’m preparing to eBook publish Heart Island: a trilogy of transformation. Now trying to figure how to insert illustrations into the books. Above is from a new scanner (epson) and here’s from my older one (hp) … see the difference? These little nuances are driving me crazy, but step by step, I’m figuring it all…
Read MoreRenew, Restore — Awaken!
This is not about computers, friends. I’m talking about the journey we all share, propelled by our inexorably searching human spirit. Each and everyone of ours. And I’m not referring to the search for the next-leader of Al Qaeda, either. I’m talking about how some of us are quite obsessed (others, not so much) to…
