Name:
Location: a tiny town in the Olympics, Olympic Mountains Washington, United States

I am a woman in my middle fifties who is still married to the love of my life since 1969. We were married Valentines day 1970 in a small wedding in my parents home. On our journey together we have lived in many places, Spokane,where we went to college,Bremerton where we moved after college, Navy Yard city where we bought our first tiny house, East Bremerton where we built our second house in a subdivision, Silverdale where we built our third home which was to be our final home, Poulsbo where we lived in a tiny fifth wheel for a year after we moved all our belongings to South Dakota where we were supposed to be moving, a trailer park in Quilcene where we lived in a larger fifth wheel for 2 years while we were getting our little piece of land ready to move onto as per county codes where we now live and have lived very happily for almost 11 years. I have been many things over the years but mostly I am a woman, a wife, a mother, a sister, a daughter and a loyal friend. I believe life is one giant cosmic song and all life are movements within the great symphony of the creator. I am a symphony with many movements and so dear friend are you.

Senses are our threasholds

Our senses are our own personal thresholds to Spirit. They take us deep into the inner world of our heart. The youness of you. They are the bridge between you and the world around you. When we tune into the personal wisdom of our senses, we can never become an exile or outsider from our own life, lost in an external spiritual place of our own making or that of another, constructed by will and intellect alone. Listening to the wisdom of our senses protects us from becoming captive to the will and intellect of another who would wish to controll us.
For far too long, much of humanity has believed that the divine is outside of us. This belief that our spirituality is without and not within has put a great strain on our longing and strain upon us as humanity. Longing has great wisdom and depth and causes us to look for divinity. When we focus that longing on a divinity outside ourselves, one that is faraway and possibly unreachable we overstrain our wise longing and cause it to become cynical, empty, angry, and full of negativity. If instead we focus that longing on knowing that the body is within the soul, and that our soul is divine ground, then the presence of divinity is completely here, close as our breath, instantly connected to our thought.
Our senses link us intimately with the divine that is within us and around us. When we tune into our senses we limber up our stiffened belief patterns and bring gentleness to our atrophied outlook. We warm and massage the feelings that are holding us captive, placing barriers that excile us from ourselves and others. We open the doorway that allows us access to the incredible harvest of spirit that is always gathering around and within us.
We are then fully awake and alive in the moment and intimately connected to spirit, able to hear divinity and be guided. It is then that our thoughts become prayers or praise and are instantly transmitted. We are connected to our power source and available to the divine.
Tune in to all your senses today, become available to your power source.
