From my refrigerator door...

"Every loving thought it true. Everything else is an appeal for healing and help, regardless of the form it takes."
-- A Course in Miracles

"There are truths more fundamental and significant than the laws of men intoxicated with power."
-- Rosemary Leary

"Man can withstand anything except a succession of ordinary days."
--Goethe

"To know and not to act is not to know at all."
-- Japanese proverb

"The kingdom of God is not coming with things that can be observed; nor will they say, 'Look, here it is!' or 'There is is!' For, in fact, the kingdom of God is among you."
--Luke 12:20-21

"As democracy is perfected, the office of the president represents, more and more closely, the inner soul of the people. On some great and glorious day the plain folks fo the land will reach their heart's desire at last and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron."
-- H.L. Mencken (1880 - 1956)

"Ultimately, the other is divine and divinity dwells in the other. Through love, one can come to know the beauty of unity and wholeness. Without the female, the male element is static and sterile. Without the male element, the female is boundless potential without a catalyst. Through unification, we find selflessness, purity, and divinity.
--Deng Ming-Dao in "365 Tao: Daily Meditations"

"One does not discover new lands without consenting to lose sight of shore for a very long time."
-- Andre Gide

about me
This is one of my favorite poems, which will tell you a lot:

"To be nobody but yourself in a world
which is doing its best, night and day,
to make you everybody else
means to
fight the hardest battle any human being can fight; and never stop fighting."

-- e.e. cummings

Someone sent this video to me at work, and I got all choked up. If this is for real, I'm even more freaked out now by how people treat elephants. I'm reminded of walking by the ivory shops that were crammed from floor to ceiling with carved tusks when I lived in Hong Kong. If anyone knows more about elephant artists, I would love to hear about it. Is this a hoax? Are they meticulously trained to recreate certain images, or do they spontaneously ex... read more

Nothing inspired me to submit a blog entry until I came across this passage in the epilogue to The Joyous Cosmology, an essay on the "adventures in the chemistry of consciousness" by Alan Watts. Without analyzing the magic out of it, I was trying to understand why Burning Man means so much to me...why I make sacrifices to participate when it seems as if the energy might be better spent elsewhere. I get it now, and I would like to pass along these insights from Watts to you.

My Testimonials

April 6, 2007
When I first met Alicia, I was so excited to be around her energy, immediately i felt connected to this woman. I saw a mentor in her that mirrored the way i wanted to live my own life....with grace, exuberance, and extreme positivity.

IT IS SO WONDERFUL to see her smiling, and know she is healing. I dedicated a block to her at the temple in BRC, and i hope that had something to do with a beautiful miracle.

Brilliant white light exuding and darkness embracing sage...soothsayer and fortune teller....both god and goddess...Alicia is someone who will tell you the truth no matter what....perhaps much more truth then you are ready for...with a wise passion for helping and healing she moves through this world with a subtle grace that many strive for but few embrace...mess with her and i break your face!!!!!

What an amazing connection I had with this goddess at Burningman. We'd met briefly on a couple of occasions, but I had no idea what a powerful. loving, generous, intelligent, AMAZING being she is. She lives big, loves big, and is someone that I feel incredibly privelidged to have an opportunity to get to know.

Oh bla bla bla her profile's all sweet & stuff but don't be fooled...this girl's an ANIMAL! Raaargh! No really, Alicia is an absolute goddess. She's a gem, a gift, a beam of radiant light on the planet. She's really fucking sexy, too. I love watching her wake up to her own glory...and in doing so, she reminds us of our own. She is PURE power and a true friend. I highly recommend knowing her but you'll have to take a number cuz this girl is HOT. Damn it! HOT!

Alicia is intuitive, empathic, honest, kind, smart, cool, beautiful, fun, generous, multi-talented, and to top it off, she radiates an energy that makes us all just want to be in her presence. She's always in the process of growing, becoming more than she once was. As her friend, I feel honored to witness and sometimes even participate in that amazing evolution.
