Who doesn’t like honey! When Honey Bear went to the river today, he found part of a honey comb that had fallen from the Honey Tree! What a score! As the bees buzzed around him trying to get it back, he grabbed it and off he ran! Soon he slowed down and started snacking, not […]

SURELY, FISH KNOWS THE WAY
I’m not an adherent of any recognizable religion – my folks never went to church, so I never got the classic religious conditioning many kids did in the 50s when I grew up. But I did have a few pretty traumatizing events happen in my teens that made me keenly aware of my mortality. By […]
A SWEET SURPRISE IN A DIFFICULT TIME
“Hank,” a friend and fellow stone carver who is also a talented tattoo artist, came by yesterday to drop off some tools I needed. When he held them out to me, I found myself gasping in surprise. See, Hank spent many years recovering from his gruesome experiences in the Viet Nam war. His body is […]
OUTRIGGER
Today I wrote my postman a note on one of my art postcards that has this painting on it. He’s been a continuing pain in the butt – leaving my mail half sticking in and out of the slot, allowing it to get rained on, not knocking on the door as I asked him to […]
DELIGHT
Every morning before I get up, I do my best to spend an hour in meditation. If I don’t do that, I feel disjointed and discombobulated all day, or at lest until I get to sit and focus inside. It has become such an integral part of my life that if I stopped I would […]
My Heart Is Broken
I see the world in terms of the Heart – what other way is there to view it if we are to remain at all sane? It has to be the very fundamental core of everything. Sometimes as I read news items, my heart feels like it’s being ripped and slashed out of me by […]
How to Deal with Ughy Relatives Over the ...
Yesterday at the grocery store, I saw – well, heard – a woman berating her child for dropping and spilling something all over the floor.The horrible things she was yelling at this 5 or 6 year old were unbearable. She must have been upset about something else, too, because the energy she was releasing over […]
Love Made My Birdies Come Back!
When I moved back to Hawaii 15 years ago, there were no birds at all in my yard. Through planting desirable bushes and plants, putting out various birdseed, and creating a simple little bird-bath, I’ve very carefully built up a big flock of birdies that come live in the trees – over ten species, including […]
Thank you! And….
A huge thank you to the many wonderful responses you sent about my tapping story about crunching my hand in a trap – (which is totally healed, by the way). I really appreciate it so much when you write! I must admit, I was really surprised by the number of people who sent me their […]
Are You Using Your Dreams to Improve Your...
Have you ever had an intuitive urge to do something that would be really cool and exciting… …and in a flash, your inner nay-sayer shreds it into so many ragged, frayed threads with so many arguments against it that you push it to the back of your mind, saying, “well, maybe some day I’ll get […]
People Ask ‘Why the Women’s March’? Here
This is a comment from my friend Lyn StClair, in a beautiful post she wrote on Facebook. Thank you Lyn! I invite you to notice that she says ‘for’ rather than against – we used to say, ‘we protest against ___.’ But we were – and still are, metaphorically – actually marching for issues to […]
It’s About Time
I remember when this song by John Denver first came out. It got me all weepy then, and it still gets me all teary-eyed. Yep, I’m still a dream-filled, peace-loving hippie. Dig it. It’s About Time There’s a full moon over India and Gandhi lives again. Who’s to say you have to lose for someone […]
