I have all of this time on my hands right now. I could be writing like a maniac. But I am in so much emotional pain that I can’t function. I want to sleep, but I don’t even bother trying because I know it won’t come.   All of this is due to one tiny kitty named Darma. I miss her so much.

Blackbird The blackbird insists that I shall not sleep And I find I must agree; In sleep I am  But observer, Not live - Still, in life I watch more Than I live.

Hello everyone. Today’s post focuses on you, my readers. You‘ve made it through a rough winter, and soon, instead of wearing a heavy coat while outside, you will be wearing suntan oil instead, as you frolic on the beach! But what is going on inside your body – specifically your mind...

Lately, my mind’s been preoccupied with thoughts, ideas and plans. Rather than go to bed with a mind full, I’ve been staying up a little later than usual.   I still rise the same time early mornings. Only better this time around with my sleep uninterrupted all night.   I started knitting...

     Sadie, my dog is in her usual position at the end of our king-sized bed. She’s stretched across the entire width in a diagonal angle which makes it tricky for me to find my own niche. I haven’t figured out how a medium sized dog can turn into one very long dog at bedtime...

Awakening with this epiphany, I laughed.  Really, four epiphanies in one night of sleep?  It sounded like a strange play or movie concept.   This epiphany was about my daily mantras. I awoke with the realization that I don't really use daily mantras.  I use situational mantras...

My third epiphany was about a dream about a blue healing light bathing me.   The dream had taken place last week.  It was a half remembered thing, not even half remembered, but a fleeting instant glimpsed and trapped in my mind's amber. Today was more of the same, at first.  I...

After I fell back asleep, I awoke with an epiphany about a work problem.  I identified a common root cause in two problems and while I slept, I wrote an email about them in my head.  Waking up, I reviewed the thoughts and email, surprised and pleased by my conclusions.   I'd already...

This epiphany was about writing.  It concerned two short stories I'd written.   The first was about a rejected short story that I'd just revised and rewritten.  In the revision, the character has an epiphany about thinking more and acting less.  This is related to his father....
