Hi! Welcome to my site!
I’m an author, artist, and adventurer. I am an outdoor girl. I’m more comfortable deep in the woods miles from civilization than I am in town. The writings I share here are thoughts I have about everyday life, of learning to live more joyfully and have more satisfaction. I’m not consistent. I write only when I feel I have something to share. I share them because maybe you are going through something similar and something I say can spark an insight in you. If you want to be notified when I post something new, sign-up below. Thank you for reading!

Feeling God/Source in the Room What would happen if in all interactions you felt God/Source in the room with you? When your interacting with someone you don't particularly care for, what would happen if you pretended that you were seeing them through...
Compassion
A friend posted on her facebook post the other day about wearing a safety pin, to show that you are a safe person for everyone, that you respect everyone, no matter their beliefs. A person asked her if she could wear one, though she voted for Trump. There...

Do you value yourself?
Do you value yourself? Do you ever feel you aren't valued? I know it's something I feel every time I have an art show and nothing sells, or I talk about my consulting business and the person doesn't hire me. But what if it could be the other way around?...
Giving, is it really the key to Happiness?
It seems to me that when people keep saying that giving is the key to happiness, they are missing the point, the real secret. We have been told ad nauseum to put others before ourselves. But as in the oxygen on the airplane scenario, we can't if we aren't...
What if Safety comes from within not without?
What if safety comes from within not from without? Is it our expectation that others behave a certain way that makes us feel unsafe? For example, I feel safer in the woods by myself, than I do around people. I know what to expect there, wildlife is...
Never Be Sorry
Never Be Sorry This was the first recommendation I was told after giving my first speech at Toastmasters. Never Be Sorry, your apology buried what you said after that. How often do you apologize for what you've done or said or just for your presence? Some...
