Life in this wild world

I'm writing this on a Monday, when all around the world people are protesting, fighting Covid-19, trying to make sense of recent events, and some are simply surviving. I hold all of you in my heart as I know we are the midst of a necessary shift and it is messy but worth it.

I want deeper connections… Do you?

I'm trying something new… Will you join me? I've chosen the theme Deeper Connection Challenge because in these challenging times it's even more important to be curious, and not make assumptions about what's true, and not judge people for their actions. Now more than ever it's a time for us to be good listeners and be there for each other.

I want deeper connections… Do you?

On Being 47

It must be a dream, right? How could that possibly be my age? 

My heart beats faster just thinking about it. What does that mean? Why does my heart race at the idea that I’m nearing 50? That I’ve been on the planet for nearly 50 years?!? Okay, now it’s beating really fast.

What’s different today? I’m one day older than I was yesterday. The other thing that is different is that I believe I am actually wiser.  I’ve been really striving to be more conscious in life, to really savour my choices and be discerning about how I spend my time.  Sometimes that’s hard, because I want to be in lots of places with lots of people and yet I know the dangers of spreading myself too thin.
