Thinking back into the past, and looking forward to whatever future there might be..

     Today is going to be a beautiful day. My daughter is coming to see Ray and I. She comes  from Toronto. I look back into my life and thank God for my daughter and my sons. They are 3 of the most important people in my life,
     In my own generation, being a mother was using all sorts of love, including "tough love". That was when the children were growing up. Now that they are adults, being a mom is being a loving friend, supporting them with wisdom and thoughts, when asked, and learning to keep quiet when not asked.
    Through it all, what have I learned? That I don't have all the answers, on an upper level, but that I need to consult with Spirit, who dwells within. What or where is "within" you ask?
   I think "within" is that place where we can go to find our inner strength,  It is a place we find when we seek the quiet of nature, or the inner channels of creativity, gentle music, and peace. "Within" is our connection to our higher power, that god given gift which dwells within all of us.

Mark Goodier reviews A Tale of Spirit.

The heartfelt sharing of a life well lived with more to come. It left me with a feeling of coming home to spirit in my own life. I enjoyed the book immensely.

Dr. Walter T. Watts reviews A Tale of Spirit.

This work reinforces my belief in the unity and compassion of the spirit. Our loved ones are with us way beyond the physical departure. A Tale of Spirit is a book that personifies hope, courage, and acceptance. It reflects the exceptional qualities of the author.

Ramona Graham reviews A Tale of Spirit.

DorisMae Honer's book is an inspired and inviting peek into the spiritual world, writted with spunk, honesty and character. I highly recommend it.

Each person is a gift, to someone.

Tonight I received insight into the people at a meeting we had. I loved the gifts of spirit which all of us gave and shared freely. I realized that when we dislike a person, one reason could be that the person displays some qualities we possess within our own selves, that we don't like.

I don't think the Universe makes choices for us.

I think we set our own goals, and the Universe helps us meet them. I think we are here to learn to make the best choices we can in our lives. This certainly took practice for me, and I sure made some mighty poor choices as I went along on my journey, but I do not regret what I learned from making them. I think we are so fortunate that whatever we do, there are consequences or results, and we learn, learn, learn.
