To Mother, Like Verb Hugging Noun
Honoring the Mother in you. The one who has opened to life, who said Let it Be Me to hold this creation, this child, paint brush, soup spoon, message, mission, this gift of mine to give the world. Who agreed to hold the memory of All As One and do what often feels like the impossible task of...
Trouble at the Border…

Dear Sister, Waking up is what we’re up to. For many of us, the intensity of what we’re collectively and individually being confronted with is at an unparalleled pitch. One thing I know for sure: the world doesn’t need more craziness, fear or hopelessness. Already plenty of that to go around. It...
We Were Made For These Times
I’ve read these words from Dr. Clarissa Pinkola Estes at several critical moments in my life but I’m hearing them now as if for the first time. ” I urge you, ask you, gentle you, to please not spend your spirit dry by bewailing these difficult times. Especially do not lose hope....
