Last night, I decided I wanted to post something a little different. I searched high and low for different photos and movies from my own childhood and found some I hadn’t seen for years…decades. I know it’s a bit like the annoying grandmother pulling strangers aside to show off photographs of her grandchildren, oblivious to…
Erik on the Value of Life
Before watching the video, I want to share a great story with you. Maria, my housekeeper who first found Erik after he died, has a sister-in-law, Cindy, who came down with Buerger’s disease also known as IgA nephropathy. I printed out a bunch of research about how low dose naltrexone can help and even cure…
Life Elsewhere and Rolling with Erik: Passion
I’m much better thanks to the the awesome energy healing of Ryan Adragna: no more fever, ectopic heartbeats or headaches. I do feel stronger, too, but still pretty weak. I understand that the effects of energy healing can take over 24 hours, though. Thanks, Ryan. If you need energy healing, please check out his site…
All About Life, Part Two
Poor Bella deteriorated yesterday developing fever and becoming more listless. Even saying, “Do you want to go see squirrely,” which is the ultimate call of the wild for this 3 pound vicious squirrel hunter didn’t get her to raise her head off the bed. So, I took her to the vet who diagnosed her with…
All About Life, Part One
Oh sadness. Lukas is off to his transfer student orientation (although he’s coming back today but then leaving for good Sunday,) and Annika is also returning to college permanently on Sunday. This is momentous because it’ll be the first time I’ve been without any children living full time in the house. Thinking ahead, I already miss our…
Finding Your Life’s Purpose
Today is a nasty day. Rain. Thunder, Flash Flood Warning. Cozy. I actually love it. This afternoon, Rune drives to Crescent, TX to race his motorcycle, so Bella and I will have the house to ourselves. Both he and Lukas come home late Saturday, so it’s just enough time for me not to get lonely….
Best of Erik: To Forgive is Divine (and Hard)
Well we got home in one piece last night and found our home still standing. Soggy, but standing. Early this morning we had more storms, and I can’t imagine where that water is going to go. We didn’t have much damage. Our outdoor umbrella got whacked, but it’s a cheap one from Costco. My heart…
Bouncy Balls and Pigeon-Toed Runners
Yeah, I know. The title screams for explanation. Instead of torturing you with a long drawn out introduction, I’ll let you just dive right in, head first. Me: Well, I’ll follow that up with a much simpler question. Who are we? (This is right after I asked how we could translate lessons, knowledge and life…
Life and the Higher Order
I’ve learned so much about myself, life and the greater reality from Eckhart Tolle’s book, A New Earth, that I feel compelled to share some nuggets with you all from time to time. I’m paraphrasing here, but the message is still powerful. Erik was the one who urged me to read this book, and I’m…
How to Rise Above Your Struggles
Me: Erik, there are so many people who are struggling in so many ways. Some of us grieve over a loss, some of us have trouble with a relationship, raising kids, making ends meet, dealing with bosses or co-workers, and even figuring out why we’re here in the first place. My god, the list of…
Missing a Loved One?
Many of you have found your way to this oasis of hope by following a trail of tears. Many of you grieve. Many of you have suffered under the heavy burden of loss. You find camaraderie here. Understanding. Unity. Friendship. Compassion. But it doesn’t replace the son, daughter, lover, friend or sibling that is no…
To the Departed
Please join me in sending love and light and all the healing prayers you can muster for those suffering from the devastation left behind the wake of the storms that have been plaguing the South. It all seems so unprecedented. Makes me wonder if this is all a part of the coming Shift. My heart…
Death and Love, the E.T. Perspective
I just finished the book, From Elsewhere: The Subculture of Those Who Claim to be of Non-Earthly Origins, written by Scott Mandelker, PhD. and would like to share those parts of the book that offer what I consider to be the most incredible insight into Death and Love that I’ve ever come across. It is my…
