Creativity has Changed my Life
Hello everyone! As many of you know from my past posts, I love rock tumbling. It’s a great hobby, lots of fun and always gives me something to look forward to. I love discovering the treasures held within each individual rock. Some are surprisingly beautiful after they are all polished up and shiny. I also…

All Things With God . . .
With God anything is possible. Without God, well it’s a rougher road to travel and it gets really exhausting. My experience tells me this is true. I’m not referring to the God of religion, but more of a higher power, creator God. It feels very important for me to get this lesson, the sooner the…

Loving Rock Tumbling
I am very excited to write this post and share with you my new adventure of rock tumbling! I have been in the process of rewriting my story, living day to day from a context that excites me and has me look forward with anticipation. My context is treasure hunting. I love shiny things, polished…

Treasure Hunting
What a great topic, especially since it’s the context for which I frame my life! I love adventure and exploring – in all areas. When treasure hunting for example, became the concept to frame my life – then anything and everything that happens, is directly related to the context – meaning it all has a…

Triggering Event
The state of being awake and aware, building upon my last post about awareness, is a complete, embodied knowing that freedom of expression is possible. With this sense of freedom also comes less fear – and visa versa. My expression had taken a massive hit to the point of being completely shut down by the…

What we Think we Know
As it turns out, not much. Back in the late 1980’s I participated in the Landmark Forum. It was a very powerful and transformative experience. The processes within the Forum, many developed by Werner Erhard in the 1970’s, provide effective teachings to help you face your fear in order to live life authentically. In one…

Breaking Free from Imposed ‘Reality’
Piggy-backing onto my last post regarding organic vs artificial, let’s suppose, for example, we are all in a game, living on a game board. We can call it the Matrix, like the movie, or call it a simulation. The person who is ‘me = Donna’ is represented by my game piece, or avatar. I move…

A Return to Innocence
I’ve made a career out of being hard on myself. I’ve been my own worst enemy and abuser, experiencing cycles that delve into darkness, shutting down and withdrawing – closing off to the world and becoming unavailable. However, I do have the ability to carry on as if nothing’s wrong and fit in – when…

A Divine Demonstration
I recently spent a week on Iona island in Scotland where I found myself living and witnessing a very powerful Divine demonstration. The island’s guardian is Columba, a very special being. On the first evening of my arrival, a friend of mine who I travelled with and had been to the island many times before,…

20 Essentials That Will Make Your Busy Life Easier
Getting back to the essentials and basics is important. I find I need to stop all “input” occasionally because it only adds to any frustration I may be experiencing especially when things build up for too long. When I can’t get quiet to hear my own thoughts or feel my heart – it’s time to…

Thinking You Know Something may Prevent a Miracle
An interesting notion. I was reading a friend’s blog post and had the realization: Miracles don’t come from anything we “know.” Just the opposite in fact. You can’t plan a miracle, nor can you know how they will happen. Miracles come from the unknown, many times literally from nothing – that’s why they’re miracles!

A Fledgling’s Message
One of life’s Golden Rule’s I appreciate is: Don’t interfere with nature. It’s always served me and is completely common sense. Well, I found myself violating this rule when I came face to face with a fledgling, one I’d been watching for days, trying to hide under a small fern.

Rekindling Creativity: Healing Stuck Feelings That Block Inspiration
I’ve heard people say they’ve received creative inspiration from various kinds of places. At the time, I couldn’t really speak to that because I believed I had limited personal experience with creativity. I’ve always believed and said, for better or worse, “I’m not a creative person.” I couldn’t conceive of what being creative meant so…
