Teaching Loving Lessons

The Swan and the Butterfly

When people experience loss, especially the loss of a loved one what is usually felt, regardless if the people are adults or children, is a powerful mourning period. This is a natural response. However, another response is also possible: the celebration of what can not be taken away or ever lost. The loving, tender times that have been spent together, represented in the many years and experiences that will always live inside, in our memories. These precious memories, by choice, can be recovered at any time. This not only becomes a sensitive tribute to the loved one who has now moved on, but is also a strong building of positive feelings in the midst of loss. Also, while those we love are alive and present it is vital to remember that each moment together is such a gift, so connected in a loving way to the best of who we are. These emotional elements are essential for adults to teach to children. Then, in the face of loss, of any kind, we can all learn to remain intact - - in a loving way.

When I wrote the Swan and the Butterfly, I thought about the people I had lost in my life. I realized that what was most important was to focus on what could never be taken away from me - - the loving experiences with these people that would always live within me. I fervently hope that this book will help you and all of those close to you to have peace and comfort, too - - in the presence of any loss in your life. Also, remember that each moment is to be treasured.

healing all the time

wayne famously and repeatedly said that all of us, at all times, in some way are healing.
all of us at all times are searching for growth in some way.
in many myriad ways, each of us is healing and growing.
all the time.

i considered wayne my mentor. and i was his apprentice.
now i know that the wisdom he gifted me was that i am the apprentice of myself,
that i heal by way of my own empowered process of growth.

deep breaths.

you are deeply influential unto yourself.
continually discover and rediscover yourself, an exquisitely expansive
practice of unveiling your highest self.

the key to the shady trail is your attention.
under the shady umbrella of your own inner being, go in and apply this to yourself.

close your eyes.
