The Red Scare

The beatings will continue ... until morale improves.

About Me

I don't want to be lost between comfortable, desperation and a saving grace.

It is difficult to see the challenges put before us for what they are - transformative opportunities. Your soul has designed a perfect program for you. That program is called life. It is a training process designed to challenge the feelings of inadequacy you carry, help you to transcend fear and move you towards opening your heart. In the process it will also move you to profound levels of awareness.
