"And, in the end, the love you take, |
is equal to the love you make." |
--The Beatles |
Like so many of the amazing people I have met in my Journey, since my Spiritual Awakening began,13 years ago, this August, I have always felt that I had a singular, powerful, yet mysterious and elusive purpose for my entire life. And I have been on a search for that purpose for a very long time. |
From my earliest memories I was both awed by the beauty the world around me, and horrified by it's cruelty and coldness. What I felt and experienced inside of myself, was almost always at odds with the way the world worked and the view of Reality that most people held. |
My Journey began in ernest, when I was strangely awakened in the middle of the night, at the age of about 13. I looked out the sliding glass back door of my room, which over looked the Los Angeles Harbor from San Pedro facing south. |
and 12 Steps |
While channeling provided a great way for me to learn more about Spirit, I still needed a lot of help in healing from my Family experiences and Unconscious Wounds etc. In Coda and the 12 Steps of AA, I found a tremendous amount of Unconditional Love, Honesty, Commitment and Integrity. I went faithfully for four years, in the 90's. I met very courageous and loving people too. |
In 1992 I was introduced to the Agape Church of Santa Monica, and the amazing Reverend Michael Beckwith. At Agape (which means Unconditional Love) I had an exposure to a working spiritual community for the first time in my life. It was the most interracially balanced, vibrantly alive, passionate, and compassionate place that I've ever found. I sang in the choir for a year, and I studied in the Practitioner Program, until completing it in 1995. |
In the summer of 1995, my dear friends Dan and Rio Watson, (my Practitioner Mentor, and a very gifted Healer and Workshop Facilitator) both sponsored me, in order to channel in Kansas City, Missouri and Eureka Springs, Ark. I was treated like a celebrity in both places, and met wonderful friends and had an incredible adventure. But more to the point, I was given the opportunity to use my channeling to help more people during that time and over the next two years, than all the time before it combined. |
In 1995 I also met a very talented woman who became my partner for the next year and a half, Eri-el Morning-star. Her courage and commitment to Spirit is truly amazing, and together we toured the US and Canada speaking at Whole Life Expo's and the Star Knowledge Conferences, Through her I connected to Standing Elk, a Lakota Medicine Man, and learned a lot more about Spiritual Responsibility and Healing, as well as Star Knowledge-the relationship between many Native Peoples and the Star Brothers. |
In 1997 Eri-el and I went our separate ways, and I wound up back in Los Angeles. I went through two years of what my good friend Laverne calls a "Spiritual Death". It was a time of tremendous chaos which lead to a deeper healing than anything I'd known before. |
My health collapsed, from being so driven and out of balance, from traveling too much, and taking on too many different people's energies,for way too long, and not listening to my "inner guidance". |
It was a very powerful experience for me, for which I am truly grateful. I'm pretty much back to normal, after chronic fatigue, candida, and aspartame poisoning, the last of which I'm still healing today. |
The Big |
It's now 2000 and I live in beautiful Northern Arizona. I was lead here by Spirit, in a dream last June. I have a wonderful loving partner in my life, Liana Moss, who is an artist, a teacher,a channeler and healer as well. I feel I am more involved in my own Spiritual Journey, than ever before. |
I meditate, process,(face my fears, and count my blessings), and visualize each day. I write and do readings for people, I run a weekly group, I read what inspires me, I work on my songs, and I share my life and my path with the most wonderful woman I've ever known, Liana Moss. |
I love my life more than ever before. And I pray each day to be of loving service to the awakening of our precious earth and beautiful humanity. |
Thank You For Your Kind Attention |
The Future Is Ours-The Family of Love and Light. |
