Life inside "The Vortex"


Spiritually I feel in tune with my SELF and with the forces of nature that operate and govern the Universe.  I feel so connected with life and with all of nature.  I feel happy and content in all that I am.  This is the first time in all my life.  REALLY!

I started a Meet Up group yesterday for Palm Springs Spiritualism so I can begin the process of building a Spiritualist community here.  It was pretty easy and I am excited to invite folks in to have discussions and "practice".

Check it out: http://www.meetup.com/Palm-Springs-Spiritualists/

I have begun my coursework in Modern Spiritualism through the Morris Pratt Institute.  It is rigorous, VERY interesting and educational.  I can't wait to get into the next lesson.

I love this course of study in Modern Spiritualism because it encompasses ALL spiritual belief systems and does not negate or push out anything.  It is all about UNITY, metaphysical principles and my new favorite topic of Mediumship.  Everything I have done up to this date complements the coursework perfectly and actually adds to my experience.

Other than that, I find at times I don’t have much to write because I simply don’t.  This is NOT a big deal.  I know that it flows from time to time and that all really, REALLY is well.

For this and so much more I am deeply grateful.  And so it is…

Life inside "The Vortex" - Peace, peace, peace...


I feel awesome today.  I feel connected and I feel at peace.  It is a delicious feeling and I know this is because I court IT first and foremost in my life.  This is the cause of all the good things that have happened in life and the radical shift in circumstances that have come about over the last four months.  It took me concentrating on peace and serenity first.

The reason I bring this up today is as a reminder to myself that this is my one true purpose; to be at peace, to be calm and serene.  This is the place that will bring all of my desires and wishes to fulfillment quickly and easily.

Even with a low bank account balance I am at peace.  I know I have more coming and more that that.  I know that everything I will ever need want or desire will come about with an ease and a grace that is unparalleled.

All things that I deem were once “lost” will be found again.  I will find them in delightful and surprising ways.

All relationships are peaceful and serene because I am at peace and have found serenity.  This includes all relationships where I felt hurt, betrayed or damaged in some way.

I am at peace and nothing can shake that.  Only I can shake it by letting go of it and allowing something else to replace it.

Jesus really meant it when he said the peace that passes all understanding.  This is a peace I cannot teach because it is something that has come about by reaching for it and making it my first goal in life; to be at peace.  Things will come and things will go but this peace will stay with me as long as I make it my primary goal.

I am grateful for this peace and for the blessings that have entered my life.

The Voice.

Once upon a time there was a boy who was very unhappy and discontent with his life.  He wandered around and asked many questions seeking happiness and peace.  He listened to so many words and followed many different paths, but alas, he still found himself back where he started, unhappy and sad.

No one seemed to be able to help him because they all pointed to different things or contradicted each other.  This confused the little boy very much so he decided to hide.

He hid from people, places and events in his life by ingesting things that made him feel good about himself and feel happy for the first time ever.  Wow, had he stumbled onto something?  This was a long lost feeling that he was longing for and deeply desired.  So, he ingested much of these things for many, MANY years and wandered.

When he wasn't ingesting these things, he felt horrible and thought horrible things about himself and those that were close to him.  He also didn't hear, see or feel the love and support that surrounded him and desperately was trying to get his attention.

The boy did this until he was exhausted and ready to give up when a little voice in his head started to tell him what to do.  This little voice scared him at first because he had never heard it before, but, hesitantly, he listened to what the voice told him because it FELT good and came from his HEART.  This was a very new experience for the boy and he found the more he listened to this voice coming from his heart, the better he felt and the better things became.

He started to feel happy for the first time just because he was alive.  He also found that the more he listened to this voice the louder and more persistent it got.  He also noticed things and experiences were improving and his life took on a new direction.

Some of the things this voice told him to do were not very popular with the people in his life.  Some people got mean, angry and hurt with the little boy, but he decided because he kept feeling better, that the voice was more correct than these people.  It was VERY hard for the little boy to do some of the things the voice told him to do, but he listened anyway.

So, he simply walked away from these people, experiences and situations and allowed them to be without any bad feelings.  It was very hard for the boy, but the voice promised him he would find peace and happiness.

He wept and was very sad for a long time.  But, even in this he found peace.  In this process of he noticed he was feeling lighter and lighter and was starting to find happiness in the littlest things.

The more the boy listened to the voice the better things got for him and the better he felt.  Pretty soon the little boy was laughing, giggling and having fun again, just like when he was a little boy oh so many years ago.  Life seemed to be wonderful again and every day was a new adventure.

The boy decided he should thank the voice and be grateful for it's wise words and guidance.  He also decided to tell his story to anyone who would listen because everyone has this voice in their heart.

And so it is...
