A lifestyle striving to create love, peace and harmony.
The year 2021 is coming to a close so I’m taking this time to reflect. I’ve done a lot of healing work both physically and emotionally throughout the year. I’m not done yet but I have progressed. I feel my heart reaching for a new place, an expanded awareness and a more pure expression of…
In the early days of my blog I created a series of posts called “Create the Day”. These posts were based on my philosophy that we are the co-creators of our lives, so with love and intention we can create a better life and a better world. Recently, due to my continued study of inner…
I’ve been asking myself this question lately, in both a global and personal sense. In reality, we can never go back. Time marches on, the world keeps changing and so do we. But right now a lot of people are probably wishing we could go back to a non-pandemic reality. We want a return to…
Today is Mother’s Day in Australia and tomorrow it will be in the US. We had a nice family facetime this morning from 3 different time zones, my older son on the US east coast and my daughter in the west. I’m very grateful that my youngest son is here in AU with me so…
Exactly a week before Christmas the area where I live in Australia (Northern Beaches) went into lockdown. I decided I have to be festive in my mind…
I realized recently that my former work and family life used to give me a lot of purpose, structure, focus and even discipline. Now that I’m alone at home I decided to try something structured to get my creative juices flowing again. I happily got more than I bargained for.
It’s days like today that make me want to move to a place that’s high and dry. As the clouds rolled in yesterday they brought pain, weakness and tiredness. Sleep was difficult, and today I struggle with movement and getting focused. The plight of a person with autoimmune issues. Or am I just getting old?…
I never could have imagined what it would be like to lose my husband, my lifelong partner and friend. It’s something you don’t think about ahead of time. We were so busy planning our next goals, creating the life we both wanted, that we never considered one of us dying early. Now I miss him…
Yeah, it’s been awhile since I wrote that last post. I just left it kind of hanging there. Well the truth is, I couldn’t write about what happened next because it was too raw. I felt too vulnerable. It took me six months to sort myself out, and I went through hell to get back…
June 2018 I was scheduled for a business trip out west and planned to visit my daughter during my trip. I was headed to Arizona and Washington State. Two days before my flight I got an email from my sister-in-law in Australia saying she had taken my husband to the emergency room because of blood…
As a child, New Hampshire was my summer home with my grandparents. As an adult, I raised my children here. My ancestors go back a long way in this beautiful “Live Free or Die” state. I’ve come home for the summer again. I had partially moved to Connecticut for a job that seemed promising, but…
It was 2 nights before Christmas when I fell down the front steps, sprained my foot and bruised my body. It was Christmas Eve when we heard the sad news that my husband’s father passed away. And then my husband flew away 2 days after Christmas to attend the funeral. Where did I go and…
