A RETURN TO CHANGE

     Good morning everyone, it has been a while since my last blog; and the blog once again has undergone some changes. As many of you know I have spent the last year taking numerous psychic courses in order to become properly certified for my new endeavor in life. Well, the courses have been completed and I am launching out into the realm of a professional psychic. You will see on the side of the blog new information and an email address in which to contact me for readings.

     I have had deep knowings, visions and dreams since I was quite young, and in 1996 I began giving Rune readings to people in the local area. I then expanded into giving Angel readings and now have added the Tarot to my list of tools. So all of this is not really new to me; it is just that most folks feel more comfortable getting a reading from someone who has been certified in the field... hence all of the classes.

     I will still talk about future writing projects on the blog as they come into being, and post words of spiritual insight here and there. But I think for the most part, the blog will consist of daily mini readings, sort of a daily forecast if you will. I am excited about this new direction in life and am now embarking upon a path that I had always wanted to walk.....

Blessings

WRITING

     My thoughts on writing during the break were interesting, yet it was ground I have covered in my thoughts before; and that is, what does it mean to be a writer? In todays society, there is a lot of competition and people looking for that one big break in their careers, and it is easy to get caught up in that mindset. Yet whenever I find dollar signs and bigger sales being my motivation, my creativity suffers and I produce work that lacks in quality. Thus for me, I guess I am a true meat and potatoes writer who must write what comes out of the muse and nothing more or nothing less. Popularity, sales and best seller lists have to take a backseat to personal satisfaction and the creative process. It has to be for the love of the art, or it just doesn't float in my world. My philosophy is, painters paint; but if you tell him what to paint every time and do not let him express his own spirit in his art, then that art becomes less of a joy to the artist. Therefore, the days of me trying to tap out projects that will meet a certain popular market demand are long gone.. And unfortunately, this what I have spent the spring and summer this year doing, trying to be more marketable in the high ranking genres of the writing world. I have laid that to rest however, and have returned to zero... For me, this is about personal fulfillment and touching the few souls who may wish to read my work. Everything else is just mind clutter... And besides, you never know what will catch on in the world of books; sometimes writers surprise themselves... Cheers.

BECOMING

     Good morning everyone, and thanks for the welcome back messages.. As you may have already noticed, I will be blogging every other day or so... and sometimes even every day; it depends what's swirling around in the mind at the time. One conclusion that I came to during the break was that it is tough being a daily blogger...LOL.. It's not always easy to come up with an inspirational thought every single day. And sometimes I just want to share a piece of music or one of my poems or whatever... so the blog will be more versatile from this point onward. After all, I'm a writer who is spiritual, not a guru who is a writer; even though I do have my guru tendencies :-)

     As far as my spiritual reevaluations go; you could say that I have awakened a bit more in my own personal journey. Ever since I was a kid I had spiritual ideas that were very pagan-ish. It wasn't until I was older that I realized that some of my personal beliefs and practices were actually ancient pagan rituals and beliefs... kind of odd when one thinks about it and makes me wonder if perhaps we all haven't been here before as some believe. But none the less, I have embraced more of my inner self and what it believes; an emerging of another kind one could say. Where as before, I generally believed in the masculine aspect of deity, I know embrace both the God and the Goddess and believe that nature, life and belief is out of balance without both of them... a broken family if you will. So during the break and even as I type... I am... becoming.

EMERGING

     After a long and contemplative break since Memorial day, I have returned to the world of the internet. After the holiday weekend I decided to break from my usual routine and reevaluate some things in life... things such as spirituality, the future direction of my writing and other projects that I plan to launch in the weeks to come. I feel that it is a time for change in life; although I am not really changing, but getting more in touch with my own true nature. We will delve into a bit of these changes in the days to come... stay tuned and thanks for reading.

MEMORIAL DAY

     Have a fun Memorial Day weekend everyone... I am having an extended vaction for the holiday; I will be back on Tuesday May, 29th.

Peace...

CLEAR VISION

     I am happy to report that my eyes are healthy, I am in need of new glasses however. Sometimes life may get a little blurry; we then may need to get a new spiritual perspective.

EYE STRAIN

     Well, the blog will be short and sweet for a little while... After suffering with a horrible case of eye strain over the weekend, (actually for nearly a month,) it is time to get new glasses. :-)
