Joy is Going Viral

SOS THIS

 

It certainly makes a great deal of sense since that if viral infections are born out of bitterness, anger and lack of joy flowing throughout life, this virus is running rampant.

There has been so much bitterness and anger flowing throughout society for the past few years.

The joy which once freely flowed has been being slowly replaced by disappointment, annoyance and irritation, fueling anger and bitterness, wouldn’t you agree? And that has created a perfect, or ideal breeding ground for our current state of affairs. Read More

Indwelling Power

At a time when uncertainty and fear appear to be near all-consuming, many feel as if they have little if no control, on any outcomes. Although that may be the feeling, it could not be any further from the truth.

There are steps you can take to position yourself in control of your life and relieve some of your stress. Practicing kindness and compassion are on the top of the list – no one or no pandemic can strip that away. Loving one another and keeping in close contact with friends and family is another way and is guaranteed to nourish your soul. Holding a ‘best of possible outcomes’ vision in your mind’s eye and in your heart is a sure-fire way of contributing to the greater good. Choosing healthy foods will fortify your body and immune system.

This Spiritual Mind Treatment, as outlined in Dr. Ernest Holmes book, How to Change Your Life, can be recited and provide you with a positive sense of control and well-being; if practiced. Read More

Love ‘Em, Don’t Eat ‘Em

Awareness of animal exploitation began when a friend ridiculed me for my lack of awareness that milk was produced by lactating cows. I had never given that a second thought — and why would I?
I had been blindly going about my life eating animals and drinking their milk.

It took only one click on the World Wide Web to set me on a new path. I began to consume more information and fewer animals. Curiosity fueled my journey, and I never looked back.

2020 Vision

There is déjà vu, there is jamais vu and there is even presque vu, but the best of all is “ancestry vu”. It is delightful when you experience déjà vu, jamais vu, or presque vu, however, nothing compares with ancestry vu; viewing a situation through the lenses and experiences of your loved ones in spirit.

Picture this: you are in the midst of a crisis, you’re not aware of how you arrived there, nor do you know where to turn. What you do know is you need answers, an understanding of what steps to take and you are feeling desperate, when out-of-the-blue one of your parents in spirit, steps forward and shines a light on the subject.

Tidings of Comfort and Joy

Do you find yourself waxing sentimental when the ‘season of love and giving’ comes rolling around each year? Are you missing that ‘someone special’ and feeling as if your holiday will be inconsequential, incomplete, without their presence?

My memories of holidays gone by are bittersweet. Christmas was my most joyful holiday until the year my mother, Leah, died. It was tough enough to deal with her death which was tragic and ‘out of the blue’, but having it occur two weeks before Christmas hit me hard. I can still to this day, hear her reminiscing about Christmas being ‘our’ favorite holiday.

Set Your Table to Include Your Loved Ones

The holidays are fast approaching and your ancestors and loved ones in spirit long to participate in your family gatherings. I am reminded time and time again of their need to be acknowledged and to be ‘a part of’.

They, your loved ones in spirit, strive to make a connection with you – some do, many do not. I give them credit because they never relinquish that ‘spirit’, they never give up trying. Take comfort in the knowing that they will never give up, no never –not until they connect and communicate with you.

I am also told you can make it a great deal easier for them to connect with you if you tune in and surrender your skepticism. Simply give the possibility of connecting a try. Read More

Proud to Know You!

In honor of Pride Month and to commemorate the distance we have traveled over the decades, I share a chapter of my book, the Spirit’s Speak on Success. It was written my best friend, Ronnie and refers to the trials, tribulations and joys of living our young, closeted lives during the 1970s.

Day 47

Success to me was a full heart.

It was complete and unconditional love.

Love without struggle.

We struggled to be loved and to love out loud – not behind closed doors or down dark alleys.

We were a feisty generation expressing our needs and living out loud – as much as we could.

But we were also full of fear.

Fear of the unknown – fear of the known. Read More

My Father ~ My Inspiration

June 6th marks the day my Dad, Woody, transitioned to spirit. He was a patriot and proud military man, so it was fitting that he crossed over on D-Day*.

Throughout my life, my Dad inspired me. He taught me the value of living in the moment, “crossing that bridge when we come to it”, and above all, remaining positive through thick and thin. Being a full-bred Irish Catholic, he prided himself on being a graduate of ‘Blarney Tech’. He possessed the gift of gab and always made others feel comfortable in his presence. As a devout man of faith, he lived by the credo that his savoir always had his back.

Even as the years passed and time took a toll on his health, robbed him of his vision and his hearing, he maintained his ever so positive frame of mind and indomitable spirit.

My Dad was always there for me. He believed in me even when I was unable to believe in myself. He was Johnny-on-the-spot when I needed advice on how to best navigate through unforeseen challenges both personally and professionally and most especially while I was employed in the corporate world.  Through his support, encouragement and grooming, he unknowingly shared his gifts of diplomacy, patience and stage presence, helping me to achieve my goals throughout life.

My Mother ~ My Guide

Once upon a time, many years ago, as I was in deep meditation preparing for a spirit circle, my mother, Leah, came to me. Her question: “What would you do if I told you the reason I brought you onto this earth plane was so that I could help you from the other side?” My response: “What?” (I could not wrap my head around her question.)

She repeated her question: “What would you do if I told you the reason I brought you onto this earth plane was so that I could help you from the other side?”

My response: “How do I know I’m not crazy and hearing voices right now?” (Mind you I had been connecting and communicating with the spirit realm for many years and was used to “hearing their voices”.)

My mother: “Do you trust me?” Me: “Of course I do!” Her response: “Good. Remember how I helped you when we walked the earth plane together? Now imagine what I can do for you from this vantage point.” Read More

Resurrect Your Own Life with Help from the Afterlife

What is the afterlife, you may be wondering. Merriam-Webster defines it as “an existence after death, a later period in one’s life.” Dictionary.com defines it as “a future life, the later part of a person’s life.” I define it as ‘life after life, from life in the physical form to life in the spirit form’. Some refer to the afterlife as life on the ‘other side’.

Janis Joplin* believes there is no such place as ‘the other side’. How would I know what Janis Joplin believes? I know because she told me so. Yes, Janis contributed her own ‘take’ on success to the many stories included in my book The Spirits Speak on Success. Janis believes there is no such place as ‘the other side’ and goes on to say “the other side is not really the other side – we are very much with you on your side – we are simply in another form – free floating, transparent, energy without matter. We are all one, and we cohabitate together. It is not the other side; it is this side without form.”

Is the afterlife a place or a state of being, or both? Read More
