Every morning when I wake I say this prayer, "Who is she that comes forth as the morning rising, fair as the moon, bright as the sun, terrible as an army set in battle array? I take a deep breath in. And out. I bless and express gratitude for family, friends and students, drop my feet to the floor and begin. I am a firm believer that to open the day centered in prayer leads to intentional hours spent in service, truth and beauty. It is from this space all work is birthed. Whether it be a class, poem or conversation with a friend, the desire is the same...to let God's light shine through.
Drawing daily inspiration from the river, flowers and trees, I am moved to be free, create and grow. Being in nature affirms my purpose to live and be the truth. To be kind and compassionate. To serve and lead with grace and humility. And to remain young at heart...always ready and willing to be a little wild to have a whole lot of fun!

Revolution of Love
A girl was born into high caste,
Her needs were met upon her ask,
Although her parents well to do,
They taught her service through and through…
