Gratitudes Revisited
So, I have been a bit stressed lately. Not sure if it comes out much in my writing here as I try not to divulge too much personal details of my life on a public forum – some might say I already share too much. However, despite it being summer holidays or my ‘retirement’ aka…

Seeking My Voice….
Remember a few days ago I wrote about the Gong Bath Meditation? Well, in my meditation I had some visions that we focused on feeling the manifestations of their truths in our physical bodies. Since then, I have had a hard time meditating for more than 15 minutes at a time as I keep going…

Patient Strength?
The sayings go: “What doesn’t kill you, makes you stronger.” or “Patience is a virtue.” I never really liked these phrases to be honest. 😛 They just felt like statements to appease one going through a tough time.

No Veganism for Me
Be aware that there are some very disturbing scenes in this video should you decide to watch it. It is also over an hour long…. Gary Yourofsky is an animal activist and vegan. With my step-daughter and her boyfriend having recently gone vegan (about a year now) and coming across other vegans lately, I have…

Patience is a Virtue…?
As a child I do not know how I was with patience. I imagine that I held it all in and worked hard to never show my annoyance. Does it mean I was patient? Perhaps I was thinking that waiting patiently would bring back my Omma to me. Possibly the anger and sadness that came…
