ALREADY HOME
“Every day is a journey, and the journey itself is home.” Matsuo Basho Today felt surreal in so many ways. There was a tremendous amount of energy moving as we took time to honor our beautiful Earth and intentionally send love deep into her very core. At different moments throughout the day, I found myself simply wanting to stop. To sit. To breathe. To take it all in. And perhaps that was exactly what I was supposed to do. It was my birthday, which made the day even more


HOME IN MY HEART
"Home is the nicest word there is." — Laura Ingalls Wilder Today I sat and enjoyed being engulfed in nature energy in the place of my childhood years. I grew up in these Appalachian mountains right here in this neighborhood where my sister still lives. Across the street and up the hill, I can see what remains of my parents’ home—a structure that once pulsed with laughter, lessons, and love. The roads here know my footsteps. The landmarks whisper stories of who I was and how


HOW LOVE DEFINES HOME
"Where we love is home - home that our feet may leave, but not our hearts." — Oliver Wendell Holmes There are places in our lives that shape us so deeply, they never truly release us. Our feet may walk away, our lives may carry us across miles and decades, but the essence of those places stays stitched into our hearts. One of the first places I ever called home as an adult was Lexington, Kentucky. I was a student at the University of Kentucky in the seventies, and everythin

COURAGE TO BEGIN AGAIN
"If you are sad, if you are heartbroken, make yourself up, dress up, add more lipstick and attack." Coco Chanel There are times in life when the world seems to come crashing down around us. We look in the mirror and barely recognize the person staring back. The sparkle in our eyes has dimmed, our confidence has disappeared, and even the simplest tasks seem overwhelming. Sometimes the last thing we want to do is put on a smile and face the world. I know that feeling all too

A REBEL FOR PEACE
“Life is short, Break the Rules. Forgive quickly, Kiss slowly. Love truly. Laugh uncontrollably And never regret ANYTHING That makes you smile.” Mark Twain I guess I have always been a bit of a rebel. I’m not sure exactly when that rebellious streak began, but one thing I know for certain is that being told I can't do something has never sat well with me. And being told I must do something a certain way? Well, that is usually when my adventurous spirit starts looking for a

USE YOUR WINGS
“Be not afraid of growing slowly; be afraid only of standing still.” - Chinese Proverb There is something very comforting about our comfort zones. They are familiar, predictable, and safe. We know what to expect, and we can settle into our routines without having to stretch ourselves too far. Sometimes it is much easier to remain right where we are than to take that first uncertain step into something new. But here's the thing about comfort zones. While they may feel safe,

THANKS FOR THE MEMORIES
“With the new day comes new strength and new thoughts.” Eleanor Roosevelt It’s a new day. An ending and a beginning, all wrapped up in the beautiful mystery of life. As I packed my belongings and prepared to leave the magical land of Alaska, I found myself struggling with something unexpected. The packing itself was easy. It was my heart that was having difficulty fitting everything into the suitcase. How do you pack away the wonder of a glacier, the excitement of a dogsle

AWAKENING THE ANGEL WITHIN
“The greatest achievement was at first and for a time a dream. The oak sleeps in the acorn, the bird waits in the egg, and in the highest vision of the soul a waking angel stirs. Dreams are the seedlings of realities.” James Allen I have always been fascinated by dreams. There is something so mysterious and magical about closing our eyes, drifting off to sleep, and entering a world where anything seems possible. We can fly without wings, visit places we have never been, re

FINDING THE REAL TREASURE IN AN ALASKAN THRIFT STORE
“You cannot have a positive life and a negative mind.” Joyce Meyer Our awareness is one of the most powerful gifts we have been given. What we choose to notice, what we allow into our thoughts, and how we perceive the world around us all play a part in shaping our experience of life. Our understanding and perception give substance to the things upon which we place our attention. In other words, what we focus on expands. Every day we have a choice. What are we going to feed

NOWHERE TO GO BUT EVERYWHERE - THE NEXT CHAPTER
“He had no place he could stay in without getting tired of it and because there was nowhere to go but everywhere, keep rolling under the stars.” Jack Kerouac There is something magical about the open road. It calls to the adventurous spirit within us, inviting us to discover what lies beyond the next bend, over the next mountain, or in the heart of a stranger we have yet to meet. A life of constant travel is certainly not everyone's cup of tea. In fact, if someone had told

BECOMING WHO YOU ARE - LOVE
“Whatever you are, be a good one.” Abraham Lincoln Today was an interesting day. I gave myself permission to slow down, regroup, rejuvenate, and organize my thoughts. After the whirlwind of experiences I have had here in Alaska, my mind and heart needed a little time to catch up with my soul! There has been dogsledding, glacier gazing, moose watching, encounters with some of God's most magnificent creatures, and the sacred blessing of the land that marked the completion

BREAKING THE SHELL
“Your pain is the breaking of the shell that encloses your understanding.” Kahlil Gibran There are many people in pain right now. Some are suffering physically, while others are carrying emotional wounds, mental exhaustion, or spiritual uncertainty. Everywhere I turn, I encounter people who are feeling overwhelmed, confused, and sometimes downright weary of the world around them. The planets are lining up in ways that many believe are stirring the energetic pot, chaos se

WHAT DREAMS MAY COME
“It’s the possibility of having a dream come true that makes life interesting.” —Paulo Coelho Sometimes God answers a prayer we never knew we whispered. Sometimes the greatest miracles are not the ones we ask for but the ones that arrive unexpectedly, wrapped in wonder, joy, and a little bit of heaven. Coming to Alaska is the miracle I didn't realize I needed. Of all the magical experiences I have had over the last six years on the Peace On Earth Tour, this one certainly pu
