I have contemplated writing this post a few times in the last several months. Aside from my own misunderstood identification that I have as a single mom and the fact that actually writing and clicking on publish would reveal to the world what really is going on my life, I am so unclear as to [...]

choice and surrender
Posted in life, meditation, reflections, tagged life, meditation, reflections, self improvement, spirituality on June, 29, 2010 | Leave a Comment »
SURRENDER: to give oneself up, as into the power of another; submit or yield. CHOICE: an act or instance of choosing; selection Two words that have been reverberating into my heart this last month. Combining the two words into the same context goes something like this: choosing to surrender. Choosing to release, thus surrendering. Releasing the tribal culture of what WAS and being in the beauty of what is NOW. Choosing to [...]
the neglected blog

Where to start. I have neglected my blog. It isn’t that I haven’t had a thing to write about because I truly have had a gazillion. But I have been avoiding sitting down to blog. Perhaps it is my own pity party of “who really cares?” Life is such a funny thing. I have figured out more about myself in [...]

I am repeating an earlier post because again, my girl demonstrates to me the beauty of living a life without judgement and without labels. Bear with me for those that have already read it. To me, it is worth repeating. And once again, I am so grateful that she chose me as her mom to [...]
should have listened

Should have listened. Should have listened. I had a great day. Met a wonderful old friend, and mentor, for tea this afternoon. Had some great conversations and loved the time to re-connect. Then I decided that I would rush to the gym to take a weights class then hit the steam room. I second guessed [...]

the real accomplishment

I really did it! I ran my very first official 5K–the Race for the Cure in the Garden of the Gods today. For many years I have thought that I could not run. Being out on my road bike for 50+ miles a day in the summer doesn’t phase me, but with running, there has [...]

I just realized as I was filling up my supplement containers for the week that I made it through the 6 year anniversary of my complete hysterectomy with out so much as a thought about it. August 30 traditionally, well at least for the last 6 years, had been tough. That day marks the day [...]
random reflections

The return to work. Return to attempting to find balance. Re-discovering my purpose, wondering if I really want to do this job. Questioning my abilities and my intention. Questioning the ‘worlds’ intention. Why? What am I here to learn? I believe that every person that I encounter is sent here for a lesson. When conflicts [...]
meditation avoidance or not?

All summer I have walked past by meditation alter and thought ‘oh yeah I need to get to that’, but seems I never do….wonder what that is all about??? I had a pretty good meditation practice going and was really beginning to delve further into the deeper part of my essence. I actually craved that time [...]
