about me
I am in a learning mode of metaphysical spirituality; this coming from someone whose always thought in logical processes is becoming most enlightened. There is an unspoken draw that guides me to share thoughts of love and gratitude and my experiences with others. I am told my spiritual totems are the eagle and wolf, and I hold them dear to my heart as I seek knowledge from my guides.

Many moons ago and back a couple decades my friends and I tried out backpacking. It was 1977 and a short segment of the Appalachian Trail in Linden, Virginia was calling our names. More specifically the trail partly followed the county dirt road on Blue Mountain and then veered off along another ridge into the forest. For us thirteen year olds, Mike, Billy, Kevin, Brice and I were eager to try out our new light packs and camping equipment. Our goal was to hike up the mountain, setup camp,... read more

When my friends and I were between the ages of twelve and thirteen back in 1976, we wandered around the woods and creek near our neighborhood in Fairfax, VA. This was a nearly daily activity since our folks worked outside the home and typically worked in DC with a long commute time; hence we had at least a good three hours after school and the entire summer to play. We looked out for each other the best we could or at least that is how we thought at the time. Today in this day of label... read more

A daughter is telling her Mother how
everything is going wrong,
she's failing algebra, her boyfriend broke up
with her and her best friend is moving away.

Meanwhile, her Mother is baking a cake and asks
her daug... read more

You are loving...

You are wise...

You are alive...

You are free...
when you are in control of yourself and do not wish ... read more
