Sisterhood



Among women there lies a mysterious link, something that binds us together and from this bond a magical flow emits. At times it escapes when we are not looking, at other times we are very aware of it as it releases its flow freely.   This is our sisterhood. 

Maybe you have a certain female friend or relative with whom this energy exchange is strong.  It could be because with this woman, for what ever reason, your heart is open, as is hers. Perhaps this is something that you have witnessed many times in your life but you have not fully experienced it yourself complete with the awareness of exactly what is taking place. When we are walled off from our emotions, they do not flow freely.  We may not even feel them, much less allow them free reign toward others.   

The only thing worse than a closed mind is a closed heart.  Open up to your own feminine self and to others.  When you do, you will begin to see the transmission of energy that flows between you and those with whom you connect.  Even though others may not be aware of what is taking place, they will be affected by your positive feelings.

Enlightenment and Awakening Easier Than We Think

After decades of seeking enlightenment and awakening, I now understand that these things; these ideas, these concepts, have been so over complicated and made to seem as if they are a state unattainable to most. It is made to seem that that they are only to be achieved by the great masters. Though nothing is black and white, on the one hand, there may be degrees; but on the other hand can you be only partially awake? Partially enlightened? Either you are or you are not. As long as I was seeking to be, I was not, for seeking kept me so busy that I could not settle within myself long enough to wake up. And both terms are as simple as that: waking up, allowing the light of God to illuminate our spiritual sight. There are no fireworks, it is not some un-achievable level (like some religions and philosophies would have us believe). It is a simple matter of waking up. All that is required is to allow God to move into your “house” and let the light shine. This begins with asking Him

Words Across Time

Words linger. Whether it is audible, something spoken to us or something we read, words linger in our minds and stick like glue. Words are one of the few things that set us apart from all the other animals and living things, we can speak. Is it any wonder that the memory of a mother’s soft coo can so strongly calm and send us to the kitchen for a cup of coco or that the memory of a scolding can set us trembling? Words are positive, negative or neutral; neutral words have little effect but words of a positive or negative nature can lift up and inspire or tear down and destroy. In a sense, they are our strongest power and thus the power of words move with us across time. St. Catherine Christine de Pisan Whether I am reading the Bible or an ancient manuscript crafted out a thousand or more years ago by isolated monks on some remote island or a contemporary twentieth century author who has now passed, it never ceases to amaze me that I get to hear their thoughts acr
