Seven Years Later… Part Five

I wasn’t really sure where to go with the Seven Years Later series this week. To be honest, I don’t feel ready to write too much about what turned out to be the next important relationship in my life, particularly since it, too, ended relatively recently. However, what I will say about him is that we had an instant and strong soul connection, which took us both by surprise. We …

Me… Daring Greatly

Instead of continuing with my “Seven Years Later” series today, I want to address a theme I noticed this week, which really got me thinking and helped me to become just a little clearer about who I am and what I want. Over the weekend, I was given some feedback by two people in relation to what they read on my blog. In the first instance, the feedback was from …

Seven Years Later…Part Three

Wow, I think I’ve been really nervous about writing the next part of this story. Not only has it been bringing up a lot of emotion for me but I’m also quite concerned about how to share it in the safest way possible. When I mentioned my trepidation to a friend, she asked if maybe it’s because what I’m writing about is too personal. “Yes”, I replied, “but that’s kind …

Seven Years Later… Part One

I’m not sure what is going on with this day all of a sudden. I’m arriving at Rooster late because I was at painting class working on another abstract piece. When I arrived, there were no seats available and they were out of the lemon-ginger scones I always have :( On top of that, I dropped my phone in the toilet. Hmmmm. I will admit that I’ve been a little …

Urgency & Surrender

For the past few weeks, I’ve been writing about love energy –  our capacity for it, what it feels like, where it comes from, how to channel it and where to direct it. What I’ve noticed is that the more conscious I am of how powerful and ever-present this energy is and the more in alignment I feel with my true consciousness, the more I discover how it motivates, maneuvers …

#rockongoddess!

Once again, as I sit down to write, hours behind schedule and not sure what to write about, the universe (via Facebook) gives me a gift. I arrived at Rooster and opened Facebook to send a quick note to a friend. She’s a real-estate agent and I’m asking her to help me begin the search for my new office (I’m hoping to find a building to buy in the next …

Where Does My Love Go?

Every once in a while, I pull a card from one of the many Tarot or Angel Card decks I have. One of my favourites is the OSHO Transformation Tarot. I like it because, in addition to the simple explanation of the card meaning, it also offers parables and teaching stories from the worlds greatest wisdom traditions including Zen, Buddhism, Sufism, Tantra, Tao, Christian and Jewish mysticism, which helps to …

Vancouver: My “Step-City”

Yes, I managed to paint while in Vancouver! This is of my sister, Rory. As I fly over the mountains, on my way back home to Toronto, it occurs to me that Vancouver and I have a complicated relationship. On one hand, it feels like home and yet there is something about being there that is slightly unsettling. I noticed it yesterday after my sister, whose apartment I was staying …

“Core Genius”

This week, I am writing my blog on a Sunny Friday morning at a beautifully restored country home in Madoc, Ontario. I feel blessed to have an opportunity to enjoy the quiet surroundings while I figure out what I’m writing about today :) Normally, my blog would already be written by now and would only need some final touches before publishing but it seems that my blog writing is now …
