I have spoken of collective consciousness, oneness and a shared divinity before. But has it ever occurred to you that we all are children of the same mother. She is not human and she is not exactly a Divine Mother. She is made up of the same elements that make up our bodies. She is … Continue reading Our Mother

The Great Disconnect
We are fragmented beings at many levels, living in a fragmented world, trying so hard to patch together our fragmented lives. The chinks, the cracks, the scars and the wounds leave us feeling incomplete. This hole we try to fill with things we seek on the outside, failing to realize that they can never make … Continue reading The Great Disconnect
Happiness, Trust and Uncertainty
I don't want the fleeting happiness that comes from acquiring beautiful things. Nor the shallow mirth that comes from people who please you, praise you and bring you gifts. But I crave the satisfaction of one who need not try so hard to prove one self in a cruel world. One who without seeking has all … Continue reading Happiness, Trust and Uncertainty
The Winds of Change…
The winds of change blow hard Rattling my windows Shaking every tree in my yard I shirk under the covers Frightened and sick. I try to shut out the howling storm But it will not be ignored One by one the windows shatter And my blanket of safety gets whipped up in the … Continue reading The Winds of Change…
The Other Side of Shiva…
Blue and pink. Fairies, princesses, ballet and gymnastics. Legos, pirates, superheroes, cars and trains. Even before they are born, our babies have their whole lives planned out - what color their rooms will be, what clothes they will wear, what toys they will play with and preferred activities and games. We put our babies in neat little boxes … Continue reading The Other Side of Shiva…

Her Five Year Old Self
Once there was a little girl who was perfect in every way. Beautiful, smart, loving and kind. Her parents loved her until their next child arrived and then the next and the next. Before she knew it she had to grow up and take care of herself all at the age of five. And when … Continue reading Her Five Year Old Self
The Work you Do…
This one is for all you unemployed and underemployed people out there. Even all the homemakers and stay-at-home moms. I was there and I know what it feels like. Sending out countless applications that get sucked into the cyber space blackhole. Shamelessly asking friends to find work for you. Begging your spouse to forward your resume … Continue reading The Work you Do…
Tried and Tested Steps to Change
So the new year is here and you've written your resolutions and sworn to stick by them only to find yourself stuck. Stuck with the same old, same old. Many of you started making changes and then found that your enthusiasm fizzled out and some of you haven't found enough strength to take that first … Continue reading Tried and Tested Steps to Change
The Rose that Couldn’t Bloom
In our small balcony we have several flowering plants. Some have been with us for years and others we have collected during our travels and here in Florida. Amongst them is a rose plant that blooms bountifully, yielding sometimes 15 blossoms. Cold weather in my part of the world has stymied this proliferous plant. … Continue reading The Rose that Couldn’t Bloom
