Sharing a blog written by Pastor Michael Small. Through the years of knowing him, his words have provided me with a constant stream of inspiration, and fodder for deep thoughts and deeper conversations. Oh, and he hitched Clarence and I! Thank you my friend. This was a writing inspired by July LampLigher Group. Last night I dreamt of beginnings
More Than Just a Feeling
She was a fantastic woman; beautiful inside and out, extremely well educated, successful in every right, she had a ton going for her. Except her feeling of being completely stuck in life and having absolutely no idea of which way to go or what to do. Been there, done that. I’m sure many of you have as well. But I
Lessons From a Turtle
I remember being at a Hay House summit several years ago and Reid Tracy, the president of Hay House, made the comment to our group, “It takes 10 years to become an overnight success”. The crowd laughed, because we all knew, although frustrating at times, it was absolutely true. We do not become ourselves and all it entails overnight. Yesterday
That is So Irritating!
I felt a sinking in my gut as I watched the white puff balls float past my window. Ahh, late spring and the pollen count is insane. I am a nature lover and enjoy my feet in the dirt, walking in the woods, and have had a bit more trouble this year than previous years with said pollen. No judgment
The Long and Short Of It
God willing by the time you all read this, we’re through it! So as you all know, my one and only son left me, his one and only Momma, to join the Navy back in February. He was joining with the intention of becoming a diver, and was scheduled to graduate May 7th. When he left, I was torn

I immediately started directing my self talk and in a matter of seconds was back in a place of, what I call, “resource”. Resource for me is a place of calm, it allows me to consider multiple options, whereas fear only allows
Of Gift and Curse – Our Dig For the Gold
“I love in the beginning of the book how he asks you what is the worst decision of your life and I thought, “marrying my ex-husband”, and then he asks you, “what was the best decision of your life and I thought, “marrying my ex-husband”. We laughed and laughed and laughed. How often in life isn’t this just the case.
A Solstice Letter
Ever notice how much better you feel after a walk outside? A stroll in the woods? Getting your hands in the dirt? Maybe it’s just me. I am a dirty hippy. It’s been said before, perhaps I am misplaced in the smallish concrete jungle which I Live in, I should’ve been a flower child of the 60’s, I belong out
Growing Pains
“When this served your Soul, it was comfortable. The fact is the pattern is now uncomfortable and is your Soul’s signal your Spiritual being has shifted out of the old pattern and it’s time for your human components to catch up”. It was a hard truth, but still the truth. “But he needs me”. She retorted. “No,” I replied, “your
Listening Inside
I am one of those people that for the most part avoids my phone on the weekends. It’s a boundary, personal life thing. We all need time for ourselves, family, friends, etc. and to set work aside. This story was an occasion when in passing, I looked down and saw a text message from a client and decided to check
