November 29, 2022What does beauty have to do with truth? An awful lot, I think. I have a feeling to really sense the Truth of something, we must reconnect it to its long lost sibling, Beauty. With all the confusion around "the truth," I've found myself living in the land of "I don't know" for quite a while. Beauty may be my ticket to a more interesting part of this land.

A little story from my imagination
In a world...
where humans look to nature for guidance about how to live and thrive on this beautiful earth, the flower guardians play a special role.

The Participatory Tales of Spring
Today I am reprinting a story I wrote last year at this time. The message is as apt this year as it was last. We are all, together, trying to shake off those things we have accumulated but are no longer necessary. This Spring, we are invited to call on the help of nature to assist us. What stories are ready for revisioning with the wiser eyes of love and experience?

Friday Thoughts: Ukraine and the Fierce Mother
As we worry and pray for the people of Ukraine, the Fierce Mother (who lives inside each one of us) reminds us: we are whole and capable. She knows that our gifts, and the wisdom we have gained from our wounds, are needed to heal the wounds of the world. There is tremendous power when many reject the notion that they are alone and powerless. Our prayers and attentive actions are influential to this situation.

Reflections on What's Behind
The essences I make for people are designed to suggest the messages/truths behind our words and feelings. I have been making essences for people for just this thing for almost 30 years. But listening for the message behind the words is much harder to do on the fly while in conversation, particularly one that evokes strong emotions.
Why do conversations seem trickier now? And what can we do about it so we can preserve our sanity?!

Friday Thoughts: Mothers & Prayers
Mothers know their children better than anyone... most of the time. We see their goodness, their purity, and the way we watch them so closely during their early years enriches both of our lives. Attention is prayer... How powerful would it be if we were to pray to those mothers and ask them to remember us—all of humanity—as the good, pure, and whole souls we are. I think this might change the world. I really do.
