Uniqueness

I have always thought of myself as pretty average. I am not the brightest bulb in the box. I am not particularly attractive, and I don't feel gifted in any way. I do love that I work hard. I also love that I have an open and growing heart. I am also very resilient. I have faced death in open-heart surgery, and I have experienced the crushing loss of our angel daughter, Ashley.

What has always fascinated me is how unique we all are. There has never been, and will never be, anyone like you. You are unique in all the world. I believe we are all here to develop and share our unique gifts.

I know God has created each of us for a unique purpose. No one else can share the light of your purpose. 

Shine on!



The meaning of life

The meaning of life is meaning. When our life has meaning, we inoculate ourselves from despair and negativity. When our life is without meaning, we fall into the abyss of depression. 

A meaningful life motivates us to continue to live, to love, to laugh, to serve. When we are dedicated to serve the greater good, to serve humanity and enhance the wellness of everyone, our lives will always have meaning. 



A Loving Universe

My spirituality is simple and humble. Throughout my life, I focus on awareness. The awareness that the sacred surrounds me and is within me. I have an intimate relationship with the Divine. I am human. I have fragilities and I sometimes feel broken, but I am never alone. 

When my beloved daughter, Ashley, passed two years ago, I became even more intensely engaged with the spiritual. Our daughters body, with her beautiful little nose and her delicate fingers were no longer in her wheel chair. And I felt, I knew she was not gone. Her angelic spirit was now even more intimately connected to the universe. She was now in communion with God.

Our God is unconditional love, deeply caring and always with us.

My faith brings me a sense of assurance that we are all part of an unconditional loving universe.



Humility

At 73, I am working to release the belief that my life has some grand purpose. I still continue to be dedicated and passionate towards my Work. I continue to love to teach, support, mentor, motivate, and I hope, sometimes inspire. I have stopped striving to be important. 

I truly believe that we are all essential. Each one of us is a link in the chain, a piece of the puzzle.
