How to Interpret Dreams
We are such stuff as dreams are made on, and our little life is rounded with a sleep. ~ William Shakespeare Hey, Lovelies! Are you one of those people experiencing vivid dreams lately? And if you are, have you been wondering what they might mean? Your dreams are yours alone. We all interpret dreams differently, […]
The Box Of Old Books
Among the boxes I unpacked yesterday was a portal to the past. Let me tell you about it…
Yesterday, I made everything different
2023 is a chance to do things differently. To BE different. What will you choose?
Cracking the Code
I had written down an important piece of information. But where? I needed to find it because I knew it was the info I needed to crack the code!
The Dream That Keeps On Giving
People think dreams aren’t real just because they aren’t made of matter, of particles. Dreams are real. But they are made of viewpoints, of images, of memories and puns and lost hopes. ― Neil Gaiman Hey, Lovelies. You may remember me telling you about an interesting dream I had last week, where I was working […]
The Comforting Dream
It’s funny: I always imagined when I was a kid that adults had some kind of inner toolbox full of shiny tools: the saw of discernment, the hammer of wisdom, the sandpaper of patience. But then when I grew up I found that life handed you these rusty bent old tools – friendships, prayer, […]
Making Life Less Complicated
Sometimes, the best way to solve a mess is to simplify!
My Secret Garden
My secret garden is hidden from the world, and it’s right at my door.
I always said I was no good at art

Owning Our HeART Space
…and then, I have nature and art and poetry, and if that is not enough, what is enough? ~ Vincent Willem van Gogh Hey, Lovelies. Yesterday, art happened. Ever since we moved to the treehouse, our walls have been mostly bare. We own art, but it was not on the walls. We wanted to […]
Is It Really Too Late?
You say it’s too late. In my opinion, only a thimbleful of situations in life are that dire. Death begins and ends that list. Everything else is simply an obstacle that must be dealt with. ~ Kathleen Baldwin Hey, Lovelies! I had some strong responses to my post yesterday. Most of them were people […]

I have always imagined that Paradise will be a kind of library. ― Jorge Luis Borges Hey, Lovelies.

What will you change for 2022?
I didn’t ‘grow’ wise, spiritual, or happy. I shrunk towards it. I didn’t add; I subtracted. There is wisdom in simplification. There is strength in recognizing that life is too short for nonsense. You find yourself spending time with people who make you laugh. Those who make you feel loved. Simplify your life. That’s where […]

A wonderful gift may not be wrapped as you expect. Jonathan Lockwood Huie Hello, Lovelies, So here we are – another Christmas is upon us. It’s a joyful time for some, and a trying time for others, and I wanted to acknowledge that, and to remind you that there is always a place here at […]
Dear Frenemy, I Am Not Listening To You Anymore
I’d rather have an enemy who admits that they hate me, than a friend who secretly puts me down. Karen Salmansohn Hey, Lovelies. I had an interesting day yesterday.

Wearing My Best Perfume
Odors have a power of persuasion stronger than that of words, appearances, emotions, or will. The persuasive power of an odor cannot be fended off, it enters into us like breath into our lungs, it fills us up, imbues us totally. There is no remedy for it. Patrick Süskind Hey, Lovelies. You know, I don’t […]
Do you really need a Grand Gesture to get started?
You just have to keep on doing what you do. It’s the lesson I get from my husband; he just says, Keep going. Start by starting. Meryl Streep Hey, Lovelies. Is there something you really want to do? Is there a dream or a goal, a vision you hold for the future? Maybe you want […]
How to Nurture your Creativity during COVID

The Poems I Keep Beside My Bed
Painting is poetry that is seen rather than felt, and poetry is painting that is felt rather than seen. Leonardo da Vinci Hey, Lovelies. One of the most soul-nurturing things I have ever done is to read poetry. I keep volumes of poems beside my bed, and I have a journal that I have kept […]

Totally Distracted By Crystal Grids
The Wounded Inner Child is the primary gateway to healing and integration. When you invite your woundedness out of subversiveness and into your awareness you finally begin to honor the past pain. You also minimize its contractive influence on your life. And you begin to offer yourself the potential of something more. Markus William Kasunich […]

No Time For Perfectionism
Perfectionism is the voice of the oppressor, the enemy of the people. It will keep you cramped and insane your whole life, and it is the main obstacle between you and a shitty first draft.

Is it really intuition, or are you simply afraid of the unknown?
Until one is committed, there is hesitancy, the chance to draw back, always ineffectiveness concerning all acts of initiative and creation. There is one elementary truth, the ignorance of which kills countless ideas and splendid plans; that the moment one definitely commits oneself, then providence moves too. All sorts of things occur to help one […]
For You Who Are Weary And Don’t Know Why
