Welcome, 2013!

It is with open arms that I  welcome this New Year 2013 ... in hopes of many joys and blessings coming my way in the coming year. As usual, I haven't selected any resolutions per se, but I surely know what I would like to continue working on this year ... 

Naturally, in the spirit of continuing my journey toward Spiritual bliss and striving to be my most authentic Self, I will consistently try to remain aware of my character flaws, whether they be ingrained and part of my psyche, or whether they be hormonal. There will be no excuses for my quick temper flare ups when I lose control of my tongue, because I will become aware of these flare ups and 'nip them in the bud' so to speak. This is what I vow to myself in the coming year and with appropriate supports in place, I am sure to achieve it.

I love being 'chill' and not being shaken out of my happy little cocoon of peace and serenity ... and I will avoid that which triggers my authentically gentle and tender Soul into anger. I am going to begin to shed Light on my darkest spaces and places, and bring all that which is toxic and negative to the surface to be bathed completely in the Light and Unconditional Love of spirit and truth. I want to become more tolerant of those around me, whether strangers or friends, and tolerant to those who matter so much to me and to whom I matter, as well. 

I want to remain estranged from negative souls and over dramatic, hateful souls who are not willing to look in the mirror and see their own flaws, but are more than willing to point out mine. I want to release those who no longer serve any purpose to me or to my continuing Spiritual growth. I want to seek out like minded individuals who know they are not above anyone nor below anyone, but equal to everyone else. And to seek out those who understand that to be their most authentic selves, they must let go of that which and those who no longer serve any purpose in their lives. 

I want to continue to love  ALL beings unconditionally, friend or foe, even those whom I choose not have in my Life. I want to remember that even though I love some Souls deeply and unconditionally, I love myself even more and will not tolerate hateful, evil, hurtful words being spewed at me in arbitrary ways and I will not succumb to being abused, bullied, or dismissed by anyone in any capacity. I am a kind, loving, Soul whose only intention is to love unconditionally. If others take me wrongly, that is THEIR game and THEIR issue, not mine. My intentions are generally pure and loving, and ONLY those who deserve my friendship and gentleness will be allowed within my Inner Circle going forward.

My Inner Circle is a sacred and wonderful place, filled with love, joy, kindness, and peace. I share it with those who are like minded and peaceful. I will strive not to become angry and explosive or reactive to those who fire negative words, phrases, actions, and/or thoughts my way. I accept, bless, and release all these negative actions and people with love and grace.

These are my New Year thoughts and hopes in 2013 ... I truly pray I can live up to each and every one of them as the year progresses ...

In Peace & Light ~

Choosing Light ...

"People are like stained-glass windows. They sparkle and shine when the
sun is out, but when the darkness sets in, their true beauty is revealed
only if there is a light from within." ~ Elizabeth Kubler Ross

When Light is contained within the essence of our Beings, it reflects and shines outward and makes our face somehow appear lighter, brighter. Our eyes seem to sparkle and dance, and our Being is light and airy. We smile easier, we love easier. Our words are filled with caring, kindness, love. We don't hesitate to help those around us without expecting anything in return. We simply strive to be the best we can be.

Alternatively, when darkness surrounds us, and penetrates our Life, we feel heavy, morose, sad. We use sarcasm as though it is our last breath, or second language, because with it we can infiltrate our enemies boundaries insidiously, completely. Sarcasm is our only coping mechanism, our only defense in a world gone mad.

Sarcasm, when used without humor, is the epitome of anger and hatefulness disguised in benignness. Words of sarcasm fall heavily on your enenmies ears and hearts. Sarcastic words can be the undoing of a sensitive Soul.

How do we prevent ourselves from being caught up in darkness? We choose to stand in the Light ... we choose to say only things that will make others feel important, good. We choose to be loving, kind. 

Some of us are hesitant to be nice, kind, loving. We have been burned too many times, taken advantage of numerous times when we were 'nice' and that is not going to happen again! Some of us have been hurt so many times that we retaliate even before someone strikes out at us.

It's okay to feel scared. It's okay to feel vulnerable. We are human beings before we are anything else. It's only natural to be cautious in this world filled with chaos and the unknown. It's okay to be scared, but we need to push past the fear and step into the Light. We need to choose Light and Life. Let's all do it together ...!

Today, I choose to live in the Light and Love of humanity. I choose to allow myself to be transformed from the inside out with Divine Love and Energy. I choose to be kind, loving, and caring. I choose Life!

Sex & Spirituality: Thoughts

I'm not going to pontificate about sex, love, or marriage! It's not my place, nor is it my interest. Many of us have been in love, and some of us have been in lust ... do we really know the difference? There is a difference. I know the difference. I'm not going to explain it here, though.


Sex is beautiful and there is absolutely nothing wrong with it between two consenting adults. Many philosophies claim that sex is only tolerated and only belongs within the confines of marriage, and yet who invented marriage? It wasn't God, or Allah, or any other Supreme Being ... some philosophies even want to dictate HOW to have sex with your sexual partner. The Mormons, for example, believe that sex is allowed for one reason only: to procreate. Not for fun, not for pleasure ... read more about Mormon beliefs about sex here: http://www.i4m.com/think/sexuality/mormon_sex_war.htm


It was man who decided to create the term 'marriage' as it stands today. In order to be married, we have to apply for and pay for a marriage license ... Why is the law involved in the marriage of one human being to another ... (we can reserve other questions about lawful marriage for another post!)


If one person states his or her love for another and they decide to embark on a committed and consensual journey together, does that not make them 'married' in the eyes of a Supreme Being? In their own eyes? 


And is it not their right to share their love for one another, including with expressions of a sexual nature, together?


Think about it ...
