Happy Father’s Day
Happy Father’s Day Well we can always think about our Father’s not just on Father’s Day. I often send a quick prayer to my Dad who has been off the earth place for nearly 20 years. I always imagine he is around and helping me out in some way or another. I something send him a prayer for extra help. So let’s not leave it just for Father’s Day to say thank you to our Dad’s and parents generally. Always send them some forgiveness for something or another, they said or did when you were a child. Now we are adults we can have a wider perspective on life and…

The Power of Prayer
The Power of Prayer What is Prayer? Why Pray? Here in Bali there is a strong Hindu tradition, although the majority of neighbouring islands are mainly Muslim. Everyday you see the offerings people place and say a prayer to the gods on the street, in Temples and all around the island. A prayer can be conversation with god or your higher self whatever we you wish to call this. A spirit maybe. We can pray to our guides or Angels for help. We can pray to our ancestors – in times of need we remember to pray, in everyday we often forget. Prayer is an everyday occurrence in Ubud, you see people praying and…

It’s all about Dogs
It’s all about Dogs Connection, Compassion, and Companionship For the moment I am happily settled in Ubud. Although I absolutely love dogs, this particular long-term dog sit I was offered didn’t quite work out for me in the end. The universe realised I needed my freedom and it signalled it through my body… so the choice was pain or let go! I choose to let go of a commitment instead of feeling the pain, a no-brainer but in the past, I would have just done it anyway! So a bit of bravery on my part to make a sudden change and throw my current plans in the air. In life,…

Love is like a butterfly
Love is like a butterfly … a rare and gentle thing… All about Love and Loss I titled this post “Love is like a butterfly” because I have just been writing this post on the bus, and the song of the same title is playing very loudly which makes me smile! In Sydney, drivers can play whatever music they like on their buses. It floats through the air, so loudly I am unable to hear the Go-Betweens on my iPod. The music transports back to the to the 70’s sitcom show Butterflies. It is also very apt as I am just been writing this blog post thinking about the…
