Research shows that loneliness is rampant in today’s world. If you feel it too often, it may help to understand where it comes from. Then you can address it!

In the Northern Hemisphere, the December solstice is the year’s day of least sunlight, when the sun takes its lowest, shortest path across the sky. North of the Arctic Circle, it is the midpoint of the period of darkness, when even twilight doesn’t reach the horizon. We asked a few of our Native friends to share traditions they’ve heard about the winter solstice. Their answers highlight winter as a time for storytelling.

In my many moves , lots of paperwork has been involved
as I move an office and a house it has been arduous, costly
and draining ..At some point I can burn these legal papers
and research , as years of documents are saved can be utilized
and deleted ..
I am not spartan , I enjoy my things , but certainly can downsize
or replace things , I’m not invested in . My home feels like home
and usually takes 18 months or longer to settle into.
Thus I always have projects .. The homes I have rented
require attention , challenges that slow me down or impede
forward movement and are totally avoidable .
It’s repetitive, and closing/clearing , very similar to the shaky
ground of past …
I give things to folks and don’t hold tight to many things .
Having had the experience of 2 or 3 adults , go through my
things and decide what to keep , and what to allow me .
Including our sons ….
I believe in abundance , sharing as much as possible , receiving
support and blessings from many sources , as I surrendered
to my life purpose …I AM HOME 🏠🌈🌝☮️🎁🎅🏼🤶🏼❤️🎄 ©️

I am not a minimalist. I don’t value empty rooms. I don’t like clutter, either. I like a cozy, spacious, bright, cheerful home. I do not care for the modern fad

Far from gloom and doom , I find my heart smiles
these days growing and expanding in peace and
harmony with as much as possible.
Awareness of deep pain, or covert mask has been
augmented , and thus in the healing process.
Awareness of shadow , and abilities to transform it
returning to comfort in heart , and mind , still contends
with body .. tweaking my diet plus clearing past
travesties of justice for sons and I , a few confidants
whom I treasure , as I’m on my own..I am in awe
and grateful beyond measure .
Smiles that greet me , hug my soul as I am received in
welcome … home…I am where I need and want to be
with great expectations of experiencing cheeks that ache
from smiling …eyes that are like waterfalls with tears
of release , equal to smiles …an ocean of tears
and fears/anger transformed , transmuted to love , and in
that peace ☮️..authentic smiles are cellular
All is well with my soul 🥰✊

Our local drummers , just a slice of how beautiful they are and what a gift 🎁
they are to our community .
Why do I like Drumming?
Observe your mind right
now. What do you notice? Is it sitting still? Is it a very skinny marathon gerbil with a sweatband and long beard in a fast moving wheel longing for stillness? Did you just try to picture that, lol? Me too, I’ll admit…..
.…..When I sit in front of my djembe, it is a tool for me, through its potential expressions, and what I actually create, to notice my present state of being. It’s like a metaphysical mirror for my being, reflecting to me, who I am at that moment. My thoughts, my beliefs, emotions, etc…
..… Now imagine with me,that you spent an hour holding your attention on just three sounds a djembe can create: the bass, tone, and slap. Perhaps you might feel rested and energized strangely, having let that gerbil take a break from its endless running. And when you hold your attention on something so direct and simple (my students would laugh at that statement), the rest of your being begins to still……

Testing for NPD
This reality has come and gone , in my life, and I am very Thankful
to be aware, awake , and released from the matrix that swallows up
individuality and creativity ..
Spiritually in a desert , became extremely intense after motherhood
became impossible with shadow that rejoiced with my induced
addiction , plucking my bones until details could be cemented
as the living death of Alienation from all I was, knew , was removed
in a show of force that I’m never knowing when he will attempt
to execute his power..
Consider the pins and needles of a marriage to a person who has
no steadiness ,who erupts , in such revelation of sickness of soul
and fearing walking away .. with proof increased since my waking
the tricks , threats , lies have an air of desperation these last 2 years .
Imperative to clear old business, allow individual choices without
threat ,

The late psychonaut/philosopher Terence McKenna once said “The cost of sanity, in this society, is a certain level of alienation,” and I think my regular readers will immediately and experientially…
