human ingenuity
| Beloved Friends, It’s a grey day in my cozy Colorado home…and still the birds are singing like frenzied mad things! They know a Spring impulse when they feel it.

I have some new things in the hopper along with the usual offerings that you all know and love! COMMUNITY POLL: How comfortable are you talking about death? Mundane, spiritual, personal, philosophical?

spiritual life
| Dear Community, This moment of Colorado’s gentle winter is nice. I like it. Just working on things in my quiet house, tending to the requests that land on my doorstep, and giving thanks for the beauties of life. That’s my immediate world.

Our human family is still trying to wake up, and our conscientious selves are trying to make sense, make peace, and offer blessings into the mayhem. I find it helpful to sing. It doesn’t make everything better, but it does fill my heart and body with vibrations of beauty and goodness. Please consider yourself warmly invited to join me in the prayerful atmosphere.
