KZSC Uppity Women Interview

A radio interview from 1999.

Let There Be Love by Shirley Murdock

A wonderful song that I find to be very spiritual, in the R&B genre.

Pretty Happy Thoughts

My reaction to people who tell you never to think or talk about "bad things" because you might draw them to you and that you can only be happy by thinking positive thoughts and saying affirmations and so on--as if it's all about your personal happiness.

Poems for my grandsons

A bit of whimsy for my beloved grandsons, Jonathan and Valente.

Reading my favorite passage from Jalaja Bonheim

Theme song for the TV series Saving Grace, about a police detective (Grace) who is assigned an Angel named Earl to assist in her redemption.

One of my favorite quotes--

Grace

It is no coincidence that we use the word grace both to describe physical beauty of movement and for a state of spiritual blessedness. When life-energy flows in its fullness through any living being, it manifests internally as pleasure and externally as grace.

Grace and pleasure are natural attributes of the sacred. Every time you ignore what gives your body pleasure, you lose some of the grace that every child and every wild animal possesses in such abundance.

Grace is a wonderful word, one of the few in the English language that stands at the intersection of the physical and the spiritual, reminding us that our task as human beings is not simply to identify ourselves as spiritual beings, but to embody spirit.

Grace is the fruit of such embodiment.
