We all fit in somewhere. Where’s your pond?

Two fish

So often it’s the little things that show us that we are not walking through this world alone…

This morning, I was reading about the mystery of the two fish – and why they symbolize the Age of Pisces. (You can read about this below *)
It was fascinating reading, diverting my thoughts from the fact that [...]

Write, Pray, Hope: Thank you, Elizabeth Gilbert

Today, I started the day thinking: Oh, my God! I am very VERY jealous of Elizabeth Gilbert.
You see, about a week ago, my editor told me, quite casually, “Oh, I asked that agent about your book…” (This was the agent she’d told me about, the mythical agent who could, she said, sense whether or not [...]

Animating your Prayers

Animating your prayers means praying with a connection to the thing that you are praying for – a connection that creates the experience, inside of you, of love. That love, that animation, connects you instantly, to God, to All That Is, and builds a bridge of light/love/life energy.
Your prayer zips across the bridge to the [...]

Find your pond

I was talking with a young man – about 30 – at the cafe yesterday. He’d been laid off – an attorney who used to work for a firm where, as he described it, “Everyone was skinny and high strung. I’m heavy. That’s why I can’t find a job.”

I sense that these [...]

The Suck

Oh, how the Suck and I have been dancing lately. I am finishing a book – you know, THE book, the one that, even if it never gets published, has already changed my life. And we’re at the VERY LAST STEPS – the writing of proposal, the polishing of prose. THE VERY END OF THE [...]

Your life gesture

Several years ago, I visited a new spiritual counselor. The first time we met, we talked about my life, my dreams – and the challenges and limitations that concerned me. We were about halfway through the session when I said, “Listen, I know this will sound crazy but I think I was sent to my [...]

Let yourself dance (revise)

My friend, Julia was – and still is – an upstart, a firecracker who’s always lit the spark in me. We raised our kids together, sipping tea and talking while Max and Katie (mine) played Magic Ponies and make believe with Julia’s (Molly and Hannah).  We covered every subject – husbands, home remedies, peach cobbler .

Quick! Slow down.

As we begin (or renew) a spiritual practice, it can be tempting to jump in with both feet and begin swimming – or reading spiritual books or doing asanas or meditating – as fast and as hard as we can. This enthusiasm is delightful and we feel bathed in light.
But then something happens.
We lose our job, [...]
