ABOVE THE STORM
“Remember, you are not your thoughts or emotions. You are the eternal soul, pure and divine.” Sai Baba There are moments when the mind becomes loud and the emotions feel overwhelming—when thoughts rush in like uninvited guests and feelings tug at the heart until we forget who we truly are. In those moments, it is easy to believe that we are the worry, the sadness, the fear, or even the excitement. Yet this gentle reminder from Sai Baba calls us back home to a deeper truth.


CHOOSING THE UPWARD SPIRAL
“Yesterday I was clever, so I wanted to change the world. Today I am wise, so I am changing myself.” — Rumi There are moments on the spiritual path when the pull of the earthly world feels especially strong. When our focus drifts from Spirit, gravity seems to take over—drawing us into heavier emotions, old patterns, and familiar disappointments. I was reminded of this truth today when I felt my own energy slipping downward after a series of experiences that tugged at my hea


WALK GENTLY, LEAVE LIGHT
"We do not remember days, we remember moments. The richness of life lies in memories we have forgotten." ~ Cesare Pavese Some of my most treasured memories are not tied to dates on a calendar but to moments etched into my heart. One of my favorite characters in this thing called life was Grandpa Opha. He wasn’t my grandfather by blood, yet he felt like family in all the ways that truly matter. What made him so special was his ability to sit and talk for hours about his life


THE GIFT OF BEING SEEN
“Spread love everywhere you go. Let no one ever come without leaving happier.” —Mother Teresa Today my heart was touched in the most tender way. As I continue my journey here in India, I find myself observing the beautiful ways love expresses itself in daily life. One soul who embodies this so naturally is my dear friend and host, Pracheta. I have watched as neighbors and friends appear at her door simply to say hello, yet they leave transformed—lighter, brighter, smiling f


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


WHEN THE WORLD SPINS, BE STILL
“This is my simple religion. There is no need for temples; no need for complicated philosophy. Our own brain, our own heart is our temple; the philosophy is kindness.” Dalai Lama Oh, what a day indeed! Sometimes I think my life could fill volumes of books with the lessons that unfold moment by moment. Today was one of those days. It began with such ease and peace—leaving early for a doctor’s appointment so I could stay calm in rush hour traffic, catching a few minutes of


PEACEKEEPERS OF THE NEW DAWN: When The Sky Feels Empty
“Doubt is a question mark; faith is an exclamation point. The most compelling, believable, realistic stories have included them both.” ― Criss Jami As I sit in quiet reflection, I find it interesting that two people can share the same experience and yet see it through completely different eyes. One finds hope; another finds despair. One clings to doubt, while the other stands firmly in faith. I’ve often asked the angels, “Why are we so divided? Why do we, as a human family


THE SPARK THAT LIGHTS THE FLAME

YOUR SPARK WILL LEAD YOU HOME
"It is during our darkest moments that we must focus to see the light. -Aristotle I wonder at times what light I am missing in my world....


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
