Tonight, during my last reading, I became aware of how unusual my life is. It's not like I haven't known that my perceptions were somewhat different than the average person's, but there are some moments in life when your eyes pop wide open, as if you'd been squinting your entire life until that moment...I've had a few moments that have come close - like the time I was at a "Hollywood" party held by a publicist (oh, don't be impressed - I was huddled like a frightened puppy in a corner for most of the night, lol). I was talking for about 45 minutes with a physicist before she finally asked me what I do for a living. Now, I've read about jaw-dropping experiences, but never thought I'd actually live to encounter one myself. Well, I'm here to tell you the act of the jaw falling agape can and does happen! lol She stared at me in disbelief for about 10 seconds before blurting out, "But you're so RATIONAL!!" Of course I couldn't help but laugh.
The PayPal Debacle

So this week has DEFINITELY not been one of my favorites. I am thankful that it hasn't been worse, but it's definitely not been one of my favorites!
I can't tell you how happy and fulfilled I am now that I've started my own business, but there are some aspects of it that are very difficult, made especially so since I've been searching for a new assistant (I just found one, which I'll announce in another blog post). It sounds easy, but trying to do all of the administrative work, marketing work AND spiritual work has been incredibly trying over the last month, culminating in a logistical problem with PayPal, the online site I use to process credit card information.
This and Nothing...

It's been a while since I've written here, which I apologize for...To be honest, it's been a stressful time lately and I haven't really felt...inspired to write.
A couple of things did come up for me in the past few weeks though that have given me pause for thought, but right now I'm in a very reflective state, so I just wanted to check in and let everyone know I'm still breathing! I promise to write something here within the next couple of days, most likely explaining the state of growth I'm in currently and why I'm in this reflective state!
In the meantime, grab some popcorn, sit back and enjoy some of my older posts!
Spreading My Wings

This weekend has been like a whirlwind. Within 2 days I've struck out on my own - leaving the bookstore where I've worked since 2002 and taking my work into my own private practice - AND held my second spirit circle at my new location. It was a very scary decision to leave a place I'd been for so long, but the truth is that the environment there was unhealthy for me and it was time for me to move on. I won't say anything further except to say that I stayed in a toxic work environment for far too long and am ecstatic to be out on my own!
