Never compare your journey with someone else’s. Your journey is your journey and not a competition. This includes the one-upsmanship that goes on when someone tells a story of awakening or paranormal event. There’s always someone who has to top the story. I’ve gotten to where I don’t care about the story. I care about their reaction to what happened, what did it stir in them, what realizations did it make them come to? I never want to hear, “oh I saw this” or “I saw that” unless someone is asking what it means. I want to hear what transformation took place in you, what is different NOW than BEFORE?

The Pentagram has nothing to do with the Christian Satan, despite what you may have been told
Contrary to what you may have heard, the pentagram symbol is not a sign of “the devil” but is used by a large number of people who share a common belief in the sanctity of life. They don’t sacrifice living things for any reason. They do not worship the Christian Satan, nor do they revere any similar figure; most do not even recognize the existence of Satan. They do not cast spells to cause evil or to befall others. They believe that causing evil will bring evil back to the one who causes it. Their religion is based on nature, and is founded on the belief that the whole world is interrelated, that everyone is responsible for their own actions, and that peace, love, and tolerance for everyone should be encouraged everywhere. Pentagrams are used today as a symbol of faith by many Wiccans and neopagans, akin to the use of the cross by Christians and the Star of David by Jews. Christians once more commonly used the pentagram to represent the five wounds of Jesus. The pentagram has associations with Freemasonry and is also utilized by other belief systems.

Walk with the dreamers
“Walk with the dreamers, the believers, the courageous, the cheerful, the planners, the doers, the successful people with their heads in the clouds and their feet on the ground. Let their spirit ignite a fire within you to leave this world better than when you found it…” — Wilfred Peterson
Why should receiving a check from my guru send my mind into such a flip out?
I’m just opening today’s mail. Why should receiving a check from my guru send my mind into such a flip out? I don’t want to cash it, since I consider anything with her writing on it sacred, so it goes on the altar. But I could cash it and donate it back. But she touched it, I don’t want to let it go! Ah, I just answered my own question. Alas, attachments cause stress…
When you are full of problems, there is no room for a solution
“When you are full of problems, there is no room for anything new to enter, no room for a solution. So whenever you can, make some room, create some space, so that you find the life underneath your life situation.” ~Eckhart Tolle
The secret to rest is staying in bed in the dark with eyes closed and no external stimuli
When I was a kid, I was told I didn’t have to sleep, but I had to lie quietly with eyes closed in a darkened room for an hour each afternoon. It worked then and it works now. Get yourself in a dark room with no light and sound, then see how much better you sleep. I like a fan on me as well, since I find it so pleasurable.

I have been a seeker and I still am, but I stopped asking the books and the stars. I started listening to the teaching of my Soul. ~ Rumi
Abstinence or condoms are the only other options for contraception?
I read the news at this link about the current birth control debate. Who on the planet doesn’t know there are a gazillion ways to have mutually satisfying sex without poking anything in anywhere? (Oh right, the sheeple…) It cracks me up the people who think kids aren’t going to have sex so they don’t educate them. They’re going to have it, it’s a natural urge, all you’re doing by not educating them is teaching them to hide things from you and grow up feeling guilty and making sex shameful for them. That’s ok, there are a lot of councilors on the planet right now clearing up the messes made by past generations. Not to worry. We’re evolving.
To those who mistakenly think I “healed” them
With all due respect: I know enough to know that if I had anything to do with it, it was simply to give you the space to relax into your own true self for long enough to remember who you were, so you could bring yourself back to balance. That’s what friends are for. Continue reading
