About Me

"Dream delivers us to dream and there is no end to illusion."

                                                                                                Ralph Waldo Emerson


There is a wonderfully quiet volunteer opportunity my niece Nikki told me about. It is, "No One Dies Alone" at ORMC. There is an opening between life and death that intrigues me. When my children were born I became aware of the amazing connection between here and 'there'. I have been drawn to this place ever since. There was a warmth and such an infusion of loving presence that filled the room. I know that I will experience that again. I know that there is no stopping of life. It continues. 

Tonight I got a call from a friend. We have known one another for at least twenty years. She asked for one of my children (they are adults).Since neither was available I offered to come. She needed a witness and her attorney would be coming in hour. Her husband could not be the one. I did not think to question her. Of course, I would come. Yet when Derek arrived just before the call to summon me, I asked him to go instead. His lovely, girlfriend, Meg was with him so she joined him. My friend needed a witness to change her will...tonight at 7:30pm.


Life continually changes yet the seer inside remains the same. Even when we are paying attention changes happen without our recognizing them at the time. Death will come knocking and life is only sweeter because of it. There is nothing to fear.
