I’ve got an odd schedule. I’m self employed but work several “jobs.” I publish the magazine, I do psychic readings and astrology reports , I script and record self hypnosis mp3 files for myself and others, I create websites, I do contract work writing and editing. This keeps me sleeping at odd hours and doesn’t leave much time for long periods of socializing. In the past, my mates’ most typical complaint: I was a workaholic with little time for them.  They were not incorrect.  I’ve always felt mission oriented. My work was never just a 9-5 job, even as a criminal defense paralegal for 22 years.  I also lived monastically for many years and got used to living in a lot of silence and solitude. That’s a comfortable and fulfilling place for me.  I realize in retrospect I’ve never been a relationship type of person.  I realize now I just hadn’t met the right one. Continue reading →

Domino is seeing the fabric of what she thought was her life unravel as she discovers deeper truths about a friend.  Learning the truth is hurtful. She feels naked and exposed and betrayed, yet she’s built up such a story line with family, friends, children that she can’t now go to them with the truth. She tied her future and income to this person. Now she feels alone yet unable to share her pain.  I’ve learned that when you cloak yourself with lies, it is a false security you have woven. It is only when the lies drop away and you stand unafraid to embrace the naked Truth that there is true freedom.  Those who don’t honor you enough to be truthful, especially if they discuss the importance of being truthful, are hiding a great pain. It’s the only way they know how to live. When you find it is no different with you, embrace that Truth and decide how long you will continue to wear the emperor’s new clothes. Bless those who expose the false security for they hand you the key to freedom.

Stop being ticked at the one you think stole your happiness.  They didn’t have that much power over you until you gave them power by your repeated thoughts and words. They were just a passing blip on the screen of your life. You would be on to happier times by now if you’d stop thinking of all the times they were mean to you. They were mean before and now they’re gone so it’s over, but you have carried that thought around, reactivating it daily for weeks, months, years. If you didn’t have it repeating in the background of your thoughts over and over like a broken record, you would be long past it and on to your better life.  It’s not what THEY did THEN that is causing you pain NOW. It is your own repeated thoughts and staying on the topic with friends. Continue reading →

I wonder how many dollars from an unexpected source the Universe will provide me with this week.  I won’t even wonder where it might come from. I’ll just be excited knowing it’s coming. I’ll look at everyone and everywhere wondering “I wonder what good they have for me today, and I for them?”

I apologize to anyone who sees my lack of social activism on environmental issues as “unloving,” I am busy working several jobs to feed and clothe and house loved ones in my immediate environment. Not everyone has the luxury of time to be active in all worthy local causes. I do what I can with what I have. In all fairness, when friends want me to write a protest letter to the government,  I ask them to please write the letter for me that all I would have to do is sign if I agree. That’s why I send return envelopes with invoices: to make it easy for someone to do what I’m asking them to do, since they are likely as busy as I am.  I work up to 18 hours a day and don’t have time to familiarize myself with issues they are immersed in.  They know much more about it than I do.  The issue is right in front of them, not me. I pay attention to what is right in front of me. What is in front of me is mine to do. What is in front of you is yours to do.  If you want my help in attending to your priority, please make it easy for me.

My cousin just watched me at the computer for 20 minutes, revising a document for him as I fielded calls and texts and emails coming in for the magazine deadline today.  He said it’s like watching Durga amped up to Roadrunner speed.  The focus and easy facility of Durga with the speed of the Roadrunner. Sometimes I multi-task very effectively!

Just got gifted an awesome backpack the perfect size for picky me. Yay for a mate who knows what I like! It’s a lightweight daypack and it’s tall and similar to the one here. I can fit all my camera equipment and chargers into it.  I’ve been wanting one awhile but didn’t want a bulky one. This is perfect.

I’m personally done with this topic but excellent article here.  Mine attracted a perfect vibrational match after me, don’t fret, they won’t be around long. The article:  “Are you in a relationship with a psychopath? You might think that’s something you’d know right away by the red tint of evil in the person’s eyes, the swastika tat on the forehead, or the insistence on discussing serial killers over dinner. But nope! Psychopaths can be extremely charming and come across like Prince Charming at first. So unless you know the signs, you’d probably get sucked into the life of a psychopath and not know who he or she really was until you are completely sucker punched. Here are 10 signs you should look out for to quickly identify a psychopath.    Continue reading →
