The gifts of our shadows... Every time we step more into who we truly are (not who we think we are), we become more radiant - our inner light shines more. The more light shines, the more it reveals our shadows... and that's a gift! It's what wants to be transformed. Our shadows are all those aspects of us that create disharmony within us - our fears, our self-doubts, our insecurities, our "issues", our triggers... They show up so that we become aware of them and can transform them into … [Read more...]

Nature abounds with miracles of all forms (and some are formless!)... All we need to do is look around us, and miracles surround us! ... I'm featuring a photo I took of a beautiful monarch butterfly within its chrysalis. It's the mature stage which is why we can see the butterfly, perfectly formed, through its casing that is now clear instead of opaque green. Soon it will emerge and fly as a graceful butterfly!... ♥ With love and wonder-filled spirit, … [Read more...]

Hidden opportunities to experience more of our world's glorious wonders... I was woken up at 5am this morning by a buzzing mosquito, which isn't the greatest way to wake up!... BUT... when I saw the time, I looked outside at the lake and the sunrise was beckoning me... Mist was billowing over the mirror surface of Royal Lake and the sun was radiant with fire colours... My entire family reunited from out of province to celebrate our mom's milestone birthday, and spending a few … [Read more...]

There's something so awe-inspiring about birds of prey... I love all birds, and different types invoke different emotions within me. When I encounter a bird of prey (including Eagles, Owls, Hawks, Vultures, Falcons - especially the larger of their species), I am simply in awe... Masters of the skies as they soar and hunt in silence, and of sight with greater perspective... They exhibit prowess, grace and balance of life between Earth and Sky. They invoke in me a special kind of respect … [Read more...]

Treasures are found in the most unexpected places... I love that no matter where we are, there are always treasures to be found... it's all a matter of how we view our world. Whether in beings, things or experiences, there's always something precious that can be discovered. This photo is of a lava stone on a beach at Kealakekua Bay. It sparkles with a crystal known as olivine (or peridot when it's considered gem quality). It's so amazing to see these green crystals in so much of the … [Read more...]

The diversity of flowers that exist continues to amaze me!... Flowers are such an infinite delight to our senses... their shapes, colours, scents, textures, sizes, petals, foliage,... They're such a blessing to have in our world, simply for the pleasures they offer us as they are, not to mention that they transform into all sorts of delectable edibles with a variety of uses... Regardless of the environments I've been in (forests, prairies, meadows, swamps, deserts, shores, temperate, … [Read more...]

The ocean is such a mysterious, beautiful place... When I immerse myself in the wonderful blue, warm waters of the ocean, I'm surrounded by vast space and dancing sunlight... It's a completely different world than on land... It's being in the inner space of Mother Earth as opposed to the outer space of Father Sky... Yet, both are so tangible here, reminding us of our multi-dimensional nature... inner and outer spaces are the same... When the wild Dolphins choose to spend time with us, … [Read more...]

How I love owls!... a beautiful Spirit connection... The property where I lived for the past two years was truly a Divine gift. Throughout that time, whenever I needed a very special sign from Spirit about my journey, it would often manifest as a Great-Horned Owl feather during my Nature walks - always in different places of several square miles! I loved hearing them hoo-hoo-ing at dusk or during the night near the house I rented... Now on the Big Island of Hawai'i, I was delighted to find … [Read more...]

It's always such a blessing to encounter these beautiful, docile beings of the ocean!... This one was sunning herself and resting on the warm lava stones of Hawaii, fully being in the moment... while others were floating like little islands in the shallow water near the shore, feeding peacefully, occasionally poking their heads out of the water to take in another breath... making eye contact... Having voluteered 11 years ago for 3 months in Costa Rica on the Pacific side, for PRETOMA … [Read more...]

It's just soooo incredible and wonder-full to be able to experience a cold, snowy, bare-tree landscape in the morning, and by evening to experience a hot, colourful landscape filled with singing birds and frogs! Oh how my senses are just BURSTING with WOW-ness after 5 months of freezing winter weather... now in the middle of a floral paradise with blossoms of so many sizes, shapes, colours, scents and of course their companion pollinators of all sorts of butterflies and bees! I feel SO … [Read more...]
