I was reflecting about the loss of my cat Bobby last July. I went through a denial stage because I didn’t send an email to my neighbors to see if anyone saw him. When someone is in denial, they’re trying to protect themselves by refusing to accept the truth about something that’s happening in their life. My husband was out of town at the time and wasn’t due home for another four days. I didn’t want to deal with the…..
My vision for my book, Messages from the Afterlife: Memoirs of a Hospice Nurse, is to help others. I did something that is totally out of my comfort zone. I took a leap of faith and walked into an independent book store to give them two copies of my book. I presented the books with a pretty ribbon and placed the informational postcard on top. I was greeted by the store manager and asked her to give my book to…..

I had so much fun at a Spiritual Retreat in wine country in the beautiful city of Temecula. There was so much laughter, hugs and love to go around. There is something very powerful about women coming together to share experience, strength and hope with one another through story telling. I was inspired by the courage and strength I witnessed throughout the weekend. The topic for our Saturday meeting was Acceptance. One of my favorite sayings is “God, Grant me the…..
I had the great privilege of attending the Sat Nam Fest West that was held in Malibu Canyon in April. I loved the setting of being surrounded by abundant beautiful trees, which was a far cry from the dry, dusty desert of Joshua Tree where the Sat Nam Fest was held previously.

I told my mother about the dream and she scoffed at it until the next week when she found out her…..
