Butterflies Wild In My Mind

Posted on January 31, 2022January 31, 2022by dancinginahurricane

This is probably the most organic image I’ve created. A week ago I started sketching out a series of butterfly images. The day I planned to do them was the day I had to tear down my she shed. My she shed was more than a building and I guess had become a space that […]

Fear: Part II

Posted on October 19, 2018December 26, 2018by dancinginahurricane

“Do something everyday that scares you.” Okay so I can’t remember where I read this but I didn’t come up with this idea. No credit to my brilliance:-) It is hard overcoming fears and putting yourself out there – raw and open. All masks down. All beautiful facets of yourself exposed. Guess what though? Once […]

Solo I Go In 4 Weeks

Posted on August 7, 2018August 7, 2018by dancinginahurricane

Holy Cow. 4 weeks until I leave. School starts back in one. Crap. I really should have done more of planning on the front end – when I first made the decision to do this –  but honestly I kept putting off investing money so if I backed out I wouldn’t have flushed money down […]

A Letter to Mary Jane

Posted on June 9, 2016September 10, 2016by dancinginahurricane

Dear Mary Jane, I wanted to take a minute to say thank you so much for being you. You are a blessing from God and I truly believe this. You help me cope when I’m feeling overwhelmed. After spending a few minutes together it doesn’t seem so bad. I can sort through the important and […]

God Speaks

Posted on May 12, 2016May 12, 2016by dancinginahurricane

“Relax, close your eyes, and pray for comfort. Give to Divine Mind your despair, your sadness, your hopelessness, your regret, your embarrassment, your pain, your grief, your fear, and your burdens. Do not rush through this darkness. Allow yourself to enter into it in order to move through it. And in time the light will […]

Walls Come Down and Peace Comes In

Posted on May 6, 2016May 2, 2016by dancinginahurricane

Excerpt from an October 2015 therapy session: Why are you angry? Because I’m scared and full of fear. What do you fear? That people won’t like me. Why? Because I’m not good enough. When those words echoed from my mouth I cried. I cried for days and when I finally told my husband this piece […]

Spiritual Vitamins

Posted on April 14, 2016February 24, 2020by dancinginahurricane

What a concept! We take vitamins to keep our bodies, our temples, our minds healthy. Vitamins for our spirituality make complete sense. They feed our need for faith and understanding. They assist us in filling in the gaps in our search for fulfillment. I love that Unity and the Y both offer these to me […]

Hell Defined

Posted on March 17, 2016March 31, 2016by dancinginahurricane

What happened to my generation is that we never grew up. The problem is we’re terrified. …in certain areas, we’re paralyzed. We’re not being stopped by something on the outside, but by something on the inside. We’re just afraid, period. Our fear is free-floating We’re just disgusted with ourselves, because we think we should be better by […]
