"The wound is the place where the light enters you"

- Rumi

I do believe ,  Dear Varian,  that having practiced with you has turned up the spiritual frequency in my life.  

My oncologist said… "you may have to live with this for the rest of your life,  we just don't know " .

#1 .  I love my oncologist, and I'm cool with uncertainty.

#2.  From the I Ching , 
 "Genius is the ability to receive from the Universe"

 I am changing and  transforming this blog.

Follow me on this fantastic voyage.
