Soul's Journey

For more than 20 years, I had been on a journey of personal and spiritual growth.  I always knew that I am a spirit.  With Ryan's death, and my desire to be close to him, simply knowing that I am a soul was no longer enough.  

One day, a question was stuck in my mind that would not go away.  What if I live as a soul in the human clothes, rather than as a human who has a soul.  That pondering set in motion a startling inversion of priority.  Asking my soul that question with persistence and commitment catapulted me into a surprising journey that I could not have imagined just a few years ago.

I received clear messages from Ryan and uncanny sources to write poems. I had never written a serious poem in my life.  But my soul's whisper was unceasing.  With a series of synchronicities and chance encounters, new friends became the angels in my poetry journey.  The calling was unmistakable.  I surrendered.

My verses, together with the love from my friends and family, have healed me.  My poetic musings clarified, distilled, deepened and ingrained the essence of past spiritual experiences onto my being.  As I sculpted my poems, my poems were sculpturing me at the same time.  Writing poetry has become a most joyous and uplifting spiritual practice for me.

The soul's journey is one that discovers the true nature of the Divine and each soul is love itself. Peeling off all layers of reality, only awareness and love remain.

My poems have healed and transformed me, by sharing them I hope they will heal and inspire others.
