Dear Loved Ones, It seems that we have heard certain "buzz words and catch phrases" forever , often without understanding what they really mean. They are repeated and embellished with various spins and approaches and the next thing you know you have a conviluted mess that is no longer delivering the keys of its origin. The truth is always found within, at the "mouth of God" . It is a wellspring and... 

My boyfriend and I moved from hectic, overcrowded Southern California to the slow pace and immense beauty of Northern Arizona. At first, we talked about building an eco-friendly earthship in northern California. Yet, further research informed us of the troublesome and toxic out-gassing from building with recycled tires. Then, after alot of packing, re-packing, moving, storage units, unreliable... 

By Doris Ehrler — Almost a hundred years ago, Charles F. Haanel and Wallace D. Wattles sold thousands of books, revealing that thoughts directly affect our personal reality.

It seemed that she was challenging me to dance at the edge of an... 

Is the City Violating State Law by Supporting Private Interests? “Arizona’s founders banned gifts to private companies as the result of bitter experience. In the closing decades of the 19th century, local governments borrowed money to force-feed private railroad development. Pima County outside of Tucson, for example, took out $300,000 in bonds in 1882 for a railroad that promised to build... 

Sedona, AZ — What do you want? What do you really want? Do you dare answer that question, even silently to yourself? I know I was unable to ask myself what I really wanted, never mind answer it, for many years. I believed that it was more spiritual not to have any desires, so I didn’t, or at least I didn’t admit them to myself. So, one afternoon when I was in a group meditation where... 

A Message From All To All   Dear Children: You are my most precious and loved creation.

1. Regret… “Wishing I had done something else. Regret for what I did not do. Why did I do that? I should have, could have and made the wrong decision not to.”   This sin is paramount in the self-hate and torture of oneself.
