One of the hardest things to deal with is the lack of control we feel when our world turns upside down. As humans, we like to convince ourselves that we have control over everything around us. While we do make choices each and every day that influence the outcome of our lives, sometimes things are beyond our control.

The Lonely Road: Coping Amidst a Pandemic of Expectation
As an introvert who already works from home, not going anywhere for weeks at a time because of self isolation can get old. You realize how much you rely upon those brief interactions and conversations with people when you're out and about. I'm lucky that I have my wonderful dog with me, as he is the goodest boy ever and makes me smile amidst all of this chaos.
The Pandemic Playbook: It's Time for the World to Change
Sitting and watching humanity in the midst of a global crisis is an interesting thing. I'm analytical at the best of times, but seeing how people deal with the chaos we find ourselves in the middle of is fascinating, heartwarming and at times horrifying.
Deja Vu
Deja vu is French for "already seen". This implies a feeling that the event, conversation or emotion that one is experiencing has been experienced before. It can be a faint recollection or a bone deep knowing.
Lemurian Quartz Seed Crystals
Lemurian Quartz Seed Crystals are high vibration master crystals. Legend tells of an advanced civilization called the Lemurians that once existed and they were very advanced beings who held a great deal of knowledge.
Electric People - The Slider Phenomenon
High energy individuals known as Electric People or SLIders, named for "Street Light Interference" which was a common effect of these individuals, are known to possess high levels of energy which influences electronics. The phenomenon seems to be heightened extensively when the person has even more erratic or intense energy.
Allowing Anger
One thing that really bothers me is emotional shaming. When someone tries to invalidate your experience by pushing your feelings under the rug, more often than not with some very positive and optimistic trope. Look on the bright side, they say. Things will get better. Don't stress out or try not to think about it.
Twin Souls & the Mirror of Discovery
A Twin Soul relationship is a mirror of discovery. It gives us insight into ourselves, into our wounds, into our dreams and hopes. It can show us where we are settling or not honoring our truth. It can show us how things should feel or be in our lives. Twin relationships aid in our own connection with our deepest truth.
Viva Las Vegas
I didn't go to Las Vegas to gamble or drink, as I don't do either of those things.Tell someone that on an airplane bound for Las Vegas and you get some odd looks. "Why are you going to Vegas if you don't drink or gamble?" the nice older couple who had playfully nicknamed me Vegas Girl asked me on the early morning flight.
What Anthony Bourdain taught me about travel, food & life
Bourdain was extremely intelligent and as such he saw the world for what it was at times, which isn't always wonderful. When you can see the world in truth it can be hard at times to see the beauty. Reality can obscure hope. Disillusion can set in. As we look back on a life lived, on the roads that should have been traveled or what can never be, it can weigh heavily on the soul.
