SUPERMOON OF COURAGE
“Let me not pray to be sheltered from dangers, but to be fearless in facing them.” Rabindranath Tagore Today was a good day—because I chose it to be so. Here in India, the dawn greeted me earlier than I expected, wrapped in a kind of gentle freshness that whispered, “Begin again.” I sat quietly and listened. India speaks in a language of sound—unfamiliar, enchanting, ancient. My ears strain at first to name what they’re hearing, yet somehow the rhythm feels strangely famil


SAMOSAS AND SACRED OFFERINGS
Outside the gudwara “You give but little when you give of your possessions. It is when you give of yourself that you truly give. Kahlil Gibran It was a sacred day for my beloved host family—a celebration of sweet Vanya’s sixteenth birthday. In this culture, family is not simply a bond; it is a living temple of love, honor, and devotion. As the clock struck midnight, we gathered around her with joyful voices and warm hearts, singing into the new year of her life. But the re


CHOOSING PEACE AS THE YEAR ENDS
Pray for peace “Don’t let yesterday take up too much of today.” —Will Rogers As I woke this morning to the first day of the final month of the year, a wave of emotion washed over me. How can it be that a year so rich, so miraculous, so full of Divine surprises is nearing its close? I have lived many firsts, fulfilled long-held dreams, and witnessed miracles that still take my breath away. And yet, woven into the beauty of this year has been the turbulence felt around the wo


THE PILGRIMAGE WITHIN
“There is nothing noble in being superior to your fellow man; true nobility is being superior to your former self.” ― Ernest Hemingway As I sit here in India, in a land that vibrates with ancient wisdom and whispers from sages long gone, Hemingway’s words sink deeper into my heart than they ever have before. What if our greatest calling is not to outshine another human being, but to outshine the version of ourselves we were yesterday? What if true nobility is quiet, humble


LESSONS FROM INDIA’S TEMPLES
“If we could simply live in the light of our bodies being temples of the Holy Spirit, our daily life would be transformed.” ― Elizabeth George Growing up in the American “Bible Belt,” I was surrounded by churches of every size and style. Yet I never truly understood what a temple was—not in the sacred, energetic sense—until much later in life. Now here I am, in India, a land said to have anywhere from 650,000 to over 2 million temples, each one a heartbeat of devotion. Toda


HEARTSPEAK
“I read somewhere once that in the 1960s, fiction writers were troubled by the notion that life was becoming stranger and more sensational than made-up stories could ever hope to be. Our new problem - more profound, I think - is that life no longer resembles a story. Events intersect but don't progress. People interact but don't make contact.” Walter Kirn There is something profoundly humbling about being a stranger in a strange land. It wasn’t on my bucket list to be thou

MOUNTAINSIDE MEANDERING
“The long and winding road that leads to your door Will never disappear, I've seen that road before It always leads me here, lead me to your door.” The Beatles I know the road well that leads to my sister’s house. I have traveled it many times during my life. The first eight to nine hours of the drive went by uneventfully with light traffic and my favorite singer serenading me in between my favorite author being read on audio. I had been warned already about rain and storm

THE HUSH BETWEEN YOUR THOUGHTS
“The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others.” – Mahatma Gandhi In meditation recently with my friend Ruth, we each focused on a desire. Without hesitation, I said that I would love to have a more intimate walk with Jesus. I want to know more about what he experienced while on Earth. It was my agenda in going to Egypt to feel where some of the historical figures walked and hear the language they used. I experienced this as I visited a church i

FROM HURT TO HEALING
"I am not what happened to me, I am what I choose to become." — Carl Gustav Jung There is a subtle shift in language that carries the power to transform an entire life. How often have we heard ourselves say, “This happened to me…”—as if life singled us out, as if we were at the mercy of circumstances beyond our control? And yet, within that very same experience lies a doorway. A quiet invitation. A sacred whisper that asks, what if this happened for you? It doesn’t dismiss

SHINE ON
“And above all, watch with glittering eyes the whole world around you because the greatest secrets are always hidden in the most unlikely places. Those who don’t believe in magic will never find it.” ― Roald Dahl Sometimes it is hard to see the blessing in the things that we feel are not good for us or that hurt. Last year I broke two teeth on two different occasions. I have never been fond of dentists as all my experiences were painful ones. Breaking those two teeth were a

SACRED IN THE SIMPLICITY
"Life is short. Be silly. Have fun. Love the people who treat you right; forget the ones who don't. Regret nothing." — Unknown Easier said than done, isn’t it? If only it were that simple. As humans, we tend to complicate even the simplest truths. We carry stories, wounds, expectations, and old conversations that replay in our minds long after the moment has passed. We say we want to let go, to be light, to laugh more—but then we hold on tightly to what hurt us, what disapp

BE SEEN AND HEARD
"What's the point of having a voice if you're gonna be silent in those moments you shouldn't be?" — Angie Thomas I think if we knew from an early age just how important our voice is, we would pay more attention to how to use it. As someone who came from an environment of being restricted in being seen and heard, it was a hard lesson to speak up for myself. There is a sacred power within each of us—a voice that was never meant to be hidden, silenced, or dismissed. And yet, f

YOUR WINGS
“If you want to fly, give up everything that weighs you down.” Buddha Have you ever had a dream that you were flying? Not just gliding a few feet above the ground, but soaring—effortlessly, joyfully, as if gravity had no hold on you at all? There is something so freeing about those dreams. No limits. No barriers. No fear. Just the wind beneath your wings and the knowing that you are supported. Flying in a dream often represents liberation… breaking free from limitations… s

HOPE STILL LIVES IN HUMAN HEARTS
"Even the darkest night will end and the sun will rise." — Victor Hugo There are moments when the world feels heavy… when the stories around you echo with fear, uncertainty, and division. It can seem as though darkness is everywhere, pressing in from all sides. Yet, pause for just a moment and ask yourself—is that the only story being told? Or is it simply the loudest? For every shadow, there is also light. For every headline that stirs worry, there are quiet acts of kindne

YOU NEVER LOST YOUR POWER
“The most common way people give up their power is by thinking they don’t have any”. –Alice Walker There are moments in life when we feel small… powerless… as if the circumstances around us are dictating every move we make. Perhaps it shows up in a difficult relationship, a financial struggle, a health concern, or simply the overwhelm of trying to keep up with the world. In those moments, it can feel easier to surrender—not in the sacred sense of trusting the Divine—but in

SHARE YOUR HAPPY
“Happiness shared is happiness doubled." Swedish Proverb Have you noticed that happy people seem to draw others toward them effortlessly? There is a light about them… an energy that feels warm, inviting, and safe. It’s almost as if joy itself is contagious, gently calling others closer to experience it too. When someone is truly happy—not forced or fleeting, but deeply rooted in their being—it creates a ripple. That ripple touches hearts, softens worries, and reminds other
