Who I AM
When I was twelve years old, I realized something so important that its implications shaped my life. I don’t remember what sparked this insight into the mysteries of life. That faded to the background when I stopped still, caught my breath, and knew without any doubt that… This absolute certainty separated me from everyone I knew. I stood alone in a world of people who acted like everything was normal. They seemed indifferent to what I knew was hugely wrong. But I couldn’t trust my perception because after all, things were rarely what they seemed to be. Maybe everyone else knew it too, but they knew how to ignore it and get on with their lives. For a long time I felt this ability to ignore the obvious truth, which eluded me, put me at a disadvantage. Since I couldn’t ignore it, I had to find a way to deal with it. As a young teenager who was developing her critical thinking skills, the next step in my logic was unmistakably, “well then, how are things—really?” The problem was that none of the authorities in my life could answer that question. The more I asked the more I realized that other people either didn’t understand the question, or they didn’t believe that Human Beings could possibly know the answers. But I had to know because if I could just figure out how the world really worked, I could figure out how to overcome my problems with reason and intellect. Then I could find a way to be happy. I had no choice but to continue to ask and over time, the answers were revealed by some incredibly articulate and inexaustable teachers. I didn't ask for the deepest answers to the deepest questions of all time and all mankind. I didn't need to. What I was after were the practical "how things are really" answers that could give me power over my life! Interestingly, answers to deeper questions were offered by my teachers as well, but they are beyond the scope of this website. I include what I understand of them when I can to enhance the intent and efficiencies of the Practices. During my 40+ years of intense personal study of everything from ancient mysticism to quantum physics, I've come to appreciate how truly strange The Universe is—and stranger still, our place within it. What I learned, re-learned, questioned, and learned again and again is that while things are rarely what they seem to be… This brain imploding paradox made no sense until I understood the Law of Attraction. After all, no one wants bad things to happen. The key to unraveling the paradox lay in mastering the distinction between "want" and "expect" and how they work together to create reality. I’ve come a very long way and have an unending journey ahead of me. We all do. At this point in my journey, nothing gives me greater pleasure than sharing what I’ve learned, with the purpose of helping others create the life they want to live. That is Who I AM.In essense, it all boils down to the fact that we are part of the one thing that is everything. GOD. The ALL THAT IS. The rest is an infinite number of details from which we each get to choose to create our own personal life. The Essential PracticesTM The Essential-PracticesTM concept fell into place one evening after months of researching the best way to share my humble learnings through the Internet. They are meant to be a User’s Guide for facilitating the wisdom of my teachers who affirm my life and rock my world (resource links coming soon). I offer them as tools to help you build on the wisdom imparted by your teachers. I bow at the feet of all our teachers with enormous appreciation and give them every credit. After all, we are one, and they are us. I believe we are all headed in the same direction. My intention for this site is to help those of us who want to speed up the process through the conscious application of the Law of Attraction. Have fun, take advantage, ask questions, and above all, expect all good things. We are each the same and each unique. Another divine paradox! Check out my first video!
