Soul Talking at its Best

For some years now I have been involved with a form of “inner being investigation” (IBI) that has absolutely fascinated me. I have been magically guided through this investigation by some phenomenal experiences and today, I have finally awakened with the resolve that, it is time to pay attention to the powerful relationship between these experiences and what I know to be my life purpose.

I have known for some time that my life purpose is to make a difference in this world through my words and my music. Perhaps I have, however, taken this knowledge a little too literally. Last night, it came to me in a dream, that the reason that my coaching practice was not flourishing, was because I was too wrapped up in the how to’s on a human level and not allowing Spirit to guide me in the more Spiritual approach to coaching. I had been confusing, what I thought to be, the “normal” approach to coaching with being the “right” approach to coaching. Oh! How silly of me!

This weekend I attended a workshop to become a volunteer for N.A.M.I. (National Association of Mental Illness) (http://www.NAMI.org) a wonderful organization geared to providing people, either in treatment for or in recovery from mental illness, a support facility where they can meet on a regular basis and be with others who are going through similar situations. This whole experience served as a catalyst for reflection as to the appropriate course of my journey.

I recognized, at the conclusion of this workshop, that, although I know I could make a difference by being involved as a volunteer, I was feeling so far removed from the forms of healing that I also know to be so powerful. Unless, of course, I could convince those attendees/participants that there was another possibility, then I would be out of integrity with the N.A.M.I. model. That, I would not ever do.

So, what am I going to do? I am choosing to focus on the guidance I am being given and follow the energetic stream toward Soul Song Connection that I know has already begun to bring about change for those who I have introduced my teachings to. I will share my thoughts with those decision makers at N.A.M.I. with the hopes that they are open to the possibility of all forms of healing and support for their participants.

I have been given a gift and this gift is to be shared with the world and assist in the bringing about of a powerful, positive shift that will in turn help to create the peace that so very many of us wish to see in the world. This is “Soul Talking” at its very best.

Highs and Lows

So often what we focus on can bring us to a place that we need to pay attention to. I say this after an extremely emotional day of ups and downs. Yesterday Harry and I worked on putting together a video that is about child abuse. It was about my child abuse and therefor it was rather a difficult and painful place for me to go. None-the-less, I feel that it is an extremely important issue and I recognize that so long as I am coming from a pro-active place in my re-involvement with those memories then I can justify this discomfort.

As soon as we completed filming I said, “O. K. Now lets go out and be with friends and talk about positive things like, my new book Soul Talking – “Wisdom in Rhyme”. So we did that and, lo and behold, we met some wonderful people and had truly positive connections there and the buzz about my book gave me such a high – I felt great.

From there we went to the local theater to see “Precious”. This was an amazing movie and so well done – but of course, due to content, very difficult to watch. Once again I connected to the importance of the issue of child abuse. I also spent time after the movie ended talking to various people about the importance of opening our eyes to what we, as individuals, can do to bring awareness to child abuse and how we can make a difference by being involved.

Being involved in conversation about what we can do, to be involved in bringing assistance to all those in need, is in itself a high.

These highs and lows that I experienced yesterday only compounded my desire to make a difference in this world through my words and my music. So I encourage you to get yourself a copy of Soul Talking “Wisdom in Rhyme” by clicking on the link to the right of this page.

New Meaning to Fast Track!

Before you read any further – if you haven’t read “Trust Versus  Worry” – go back and read that – then you will ‘get’ this, the rest of the story.

One must be really careful what they ask for because, as long as one’s intention is truly clear, things begin happening so fast they can make your head spin!

Why am I saying all this? Well here’s what happened since I chose to change my mind and step out of the victim space. This past few weeks have absolutely flown by.  Mid September Harry and I jumped on the “Trust” wagon and allowed Spirit to guide us on an amazing journey.  We began by packing up the car and taking off for the nearest beach, which just happens to be, Rehoboth, Delaware. The last thing that I put into the car was my copy of Soul Talking (my book that is still waiting to be published ) I was not sure why I made a point of including that in our items to be packed, but that would soon no longer be a mystery to me.

We took a different route to the beach than we normally take and as we approached a certain intersection I found myself directing Harry to “turn right!” Harry generally likes to humor me and I thank God he did this particular time. We found ourselves in this neat little township of Milton.  As we drove by the Lions Club I happened to notice that the next week they would be having a “Spaghetti Dinner”.

After a short stop at the local Coffee House, we took ourselves on a wander around this lovely little town. At one point Harry spotted a waterfall in the distance and we sauntered along a path that took us in the direction of the waterfall. As we approached the water I got this amazingly, overwhelming feeling of “deja-vu”! I also got this emotional wave and tears flowed and all I knew is that I felt like I was coming home. I turned to Harry and said,”This is where we are supposed to be!” We walked on and found ourselves in this park and there, seated on one of the park benches was John Milton, the poet. I thought about my poetry book, Soul Talking, that I had been so careful to bring with us on our journey. The most significant thing about all of this is the feelings that we both were experiencing.

We traveled onto the beach and took the next few hours to just soak in the sun and contemplate the feelings we were having regarding our diversion through Milton. Harry and I were deep in thoughts about what was going on in our lives and although it was a magnificent day we allowed it to slide by into the early evening when we were beginning to actually feel a little chill. We gathered all our goodies together, took them to the car,then sauntered along the streets of Rehoboth until we spied a special restaurant that had a menu that appealed to both of us.

By the time we had finished our meal and spent some time with the owner of the restaurant we had, pretty well, decided that we wanted to work there. Only a few days later we confirmed this with the owner and on that same day we realized that we needed to get a new home closer to our jobs. Then I remembered the “Spaghetti Dinner” at the Lions Club in Milton.

That evening we sauntered into the Lions Club an Milton and introduced ourselves to the gathered throng and let them know that we need to find a new place to live. By 9pm on that very evening, we met our new landlords and essentially had an agreement on our new home.

One week later we began our new jobs and two weeks later the movers came and moved our home from Annapolis, Maryland to Milton, Delaware. Meanwhile our landlords were kind enough to allow us to stay in our “new home” before we actually made the move and they did not charge us for that.

So much has happened since we both made the decision to change our attitude and trust in the graciousness of the Universe. Listen folks, I am totally aware that what we have done is, to many, is extreme and unusual but it has just begun a whole new life for us and we are loving it, with all the turns and twists…………………………….watch this space!

Keep tuned in!
