There he goes, riding a comet’s tail! Sir Humpity deDumpity Du was carelessly dancing on a wall way too small. He laughed and giggled while doing the jiggety-jig on that way-too-small wall when he lost his balance and took a great fall. He fell hard, landing smack dab on his head, breaking into a zillion-and-one… Continue reading The Fall and the Rise of Sir Humpity deDumpity Du

They turned off my friggin’ water! I had just finished showering and was about to brush my teeth when suddenly, my water sputtered to a stop. Confused and a tad pissed, I dressed and flew downstairs. No water in the kitchen, no water in the downstairs bath, no water in the outside faucet! That’s when… Continue reading The Water Bill

Oh, what an adventure! Naturally, it happened in the middle of the night. I got out of bed to go pee, something you do often when you’re nine months pregnant. Halfway down the hall to the bathroom, my water broke. I was told to expect this, but maybe because I was half asleep, I was… Continue reading Welcome to the World, Baby Girl

What did I do wrong?” I… Continue reading I Lost My Voice

My dearest daughter, You had a rocky start this lifetime. People and society fed you messages that were not only untrue but also hurtful and ultimately harmful. However, you heard my whisperings, urging you to gather your sword and shield and rise up like the Phoenix.  And you did. The fierce fire of truth burns… Continue reading A Letter From The Goddess Mother

Connecting With Reality Detaching is letting go of our need to control the outcome. It is about accepting what is happening in the moment. Detachment is not indifferent, nor is it disconnecting from reality.  Detachment is about empowering ourselves to make decisions and take actions that allow us to be in charge of our emotional… Continue reading Detachment

Why aren’t you? I was a feminist long before I even knew it was a thing. I was raised by a dominating stepfather.  This man controlled everything in our home, and if we kids ever questioned him, the answer was always the same: “Cause I say so, and I pay the bills.”  And so it… Continue reading I Am A Feminist

It’s our job, not a life lesson. Those who commit atrocities are acting out of old wounds. That doesn’t let them off the hook. Nor is it our job to heal their wounds. Truth be told, we don’t have that power. However, we do possess the power to heal our own wounds. Painful things happen;… Continue reading Healing From Within
