Remember, we are beings of light, fragments of the One Great Spirit in action.

Remember, we came to bring light into darkness.

Thy Will, Not Mine (Poem)

Reading Time: 3 minutes

Guest Post by Gloria Lionz

“When an insight lands in a dream, repeats itself even after waking from a dream, going back to sleep & hearing the same message, it’s evident Spirit wants me to do something with that ‘urgent’ message. With zero concern for ‘what time of day’ Spirit speaks, I now have a simple option that honors the ‘gift’ while helping me get the rest I need. I jot down any phrase and/or highlights and title in a notebook I keep bedside. Then, when I’m fully awake, I sit down at my computer and record the “rest of the message.”

Lost and Found (Poem)

Reading Time: 4 minutes

Guest Post by Gloria Lionz

Have you EVER ‘misplaced, lost or parted company with a beloved belonging only to be blissfully reunited? If you’re like most people, you probably have.

But what happens when those objects disappear? Do you react with anger or negative self-judgment? Or do you take a moment to approach a disappointment by granting yourself a moment of grace, curiosity and/or humor?

Things I Choose (Story and Poem)

Reading Time: 4 minutes

Guest post by Gloria Lionz

Life has a way of introducing us to people who are looking for a puzzle piece we carry for them. That’s what this poem was for a man I recently met in Mexico. I was there working with a team of medical practitioners at a clinic in a very small town outside Ensenada.

The Drop and the Ocean (Poem)

Reading Time: 2 minutes

Guest Post by Dennis Ernst

I have a friend who is finishing up the last of her adventures in this life and will be leaving us soon. I wrote a poem for her, her caregivers, family, and friends that I would like to share with others. 

While being a deeply spiritual person, she was not the least bit religious about it, and I wanted to hit the right note that everyone could understand and enjoy. Most of this came from my dreams.

Laughter in Her Veins

This tale began early 2022 when I started experiencing severe muscle fatigue and joint pain. Several specialists, tests, scans, and TIME later resulted in a single  “generic prognosis:  High inflammation since you’re getting old. Continue exercising and learn to live with the pain.”

Thanksgiving, 2025 (Poem)

Reading Time: 2 minutes

Guest Post by Dennis Ernst

Look around—our world is fracturing,
news breaking like waves against our peace,
Uncertainty is the only certainty we know.
The ground shifts daily beneath our feet,
and we are asked to walk anyway, to live anyway,
to find our way through the storms of life.

Someday (Poem)

Guest Post by Gloria Lionz

If you, like most people, often let “Someday” inform what you choose to pursue in life, this piece may prompt a shift. The insights the words revealed definitely revised my perspective of what my heart would prefer to experience….

More Than Enough (Poem)

Reading Time: 2 minutes

Guest Post by Gloria Lionz

This poem announced itself with three short words – “more than enough.” When that phrase landed I stopped everything, sat down, and listened for the “rest of the story.”

Perhaps the reader is familiar with similar feelings; the creative opening that appears where one chooses a response designed to provide pragmatic insight and the dynamic flow of creative empowerment. 

I invite you to “listen” then celebrate this age old truth: when we’re aligned with love each of us automatically realizes we are “more than enough.”

Crafting Wabi-Sabi (Poem)

Reading Time: 2 minutes

Guest Post by Dennis Ernst

I think of my own life and all of its imperfections. The challenges, slowly tearing down outdated beliefs, stripping away all that isn’t needed for the next step in life. This process is an evolution that creatively crafts our becoming into a unique and ever-changing work of art. It challenges us to keep going, keep working, keep crafting our masterpiece of human experience. Each refinement reveals new hidden beauty, depth, and a deeper understanding of our journey and our becoming.
