It’s hard to say how tall she is but when she enters a room she radiates presence like a grand tower, determined and kind, ever ready with a smile. At a commanding 6’0” it’s looking up time to receive a smile imbued by a confidence at having seen it all and an elegance born of the…

It is clear in the world today, in each moment, we have the opportunity to move toward love or only see illusions. Free will is a principle in the worlds of spirituality, physics and throughout the human universe in general, like gravity. We have free will. Which means we have a choice. In each situation…
