Today I saw you…from afar. I did not stop, I did not want to intrude, but instead smiled at the way my heart swelled with love at the sight of you. My memories are always tucked into my heart, and I remember that it is “the heart of the matter.”
Love, Wendy

Little white lies…big lies…omission of information…managing the information…fake aliases…imposter accounts, masks…asking for alibis…is the truth.
Love, Wendy
Time has changed everything, and nothing.

When we have tried our very best and given of ourselves to depletion, and it still is not enough…
It will never be enough.
Love,
Wendy
A loving relationship, one with deep intimacy, feeds both partners spiritually, emotionally and physically. Each is mindful of the others desires and needs, and our own self love and self care is never compromised.
Love and blessings,

I believe that God guides us in order to serve others who He observes in need of loving support and guidance.
And, when there is resistance to our Divinely led support from others for an extended period of time, God re-directs our service to those who are willing to embrace change, and those who are willing to work towards becoming a spiritual student, and teacher.
Recently, my re-direction has taken me on a new path of serving, one that I did not think I would return to, but as a spiritual student, and teacher, I want to deepen my Divine connection and to continue to learn, and to evolve, so I surrender to the Universe/God/Spirit.
I am always grateful for “continuing education” in order to grow, and to lead others on their own spiritual journey.
Love and blessings,

People treat others with behaviors and words that have been modeled for them.
This is their normal.
If other’s behaviors are unkind and reactive, remind yourself that this is their limited way of expressing themselves through a narrow lens, and in no way is reflective of you.
Seek communication and collaboration through a wider lens.
In relationships, when we collaborate and step outside the box to resolve our challenges, we recognize collaboration as a flow…a win win rather than engaging in adversarial behaviors.

Until I was able to look straight into the eyes that were looking back at me in the mirror that I finally was brave enough to see, I believed his vision of me.
Never pretty enough, smart enough, thin enough.
The truth is that was never about me.
I turned the mirror towards him.
He turned his back and ran away. Literally.
You see, when one has no integrity and is not brave enough to do the inner work, they deflect.
Deflection is a cowards game.
Deflection is one’s way of avoiding ones own truth, and a weak man’s excuse to avoid telling the truth.
Reflection takes inner strength where one authentically and courageously looks at oneself, without judgement, as is, using ones senses to connect with ones Higher self, and Spirit, with willingness to create the change you inherently know is needed….as an “evolved” being rather than pointing out the defects of others.
Love,
Wendy
I love to observe. I watch people’s facial expressions and body language. I witness beautiful souls with an open space where they embrace others unconditionally.
I also witness from others rolling of the eyes, those who turn their back and look the other way when someone they are in conflict with approaches.
I know the circumstances behind the “conflict.” Almost infantile and empty. Behavior that I would expect from a young child who is being disciplined for unbecoming and unhealthy reactions followed by self pity.
I believe that there is so much dissension amongst grown adults due to fear, envy and ignorance.
Rather than taking the time to listen and “see,” the other person, some take the easy way out.
Judgement. Separation. Disconnect.
I feel only empathy and compassion for these souls. There is something within themselves that is so miserable that they will not allow themselves to acknowledge it, process it, and to release it, and so they channel that anger, hurt, and frustration outwards.
It’s a good way to deflect, but trust me, when they are in the silence of their own space…
They absolutely know right from wrong, and their truth.
And it is painful.
Choose empathy. Pray for them.
They are in pain.
And remind yourself that this all about them, and not about you.
Love and blessings,
Wendy
If there had been support and resources for mental health, substance use disorder and wellness decades ago, I would’ve had the opportunity to have decades added to my life. I am in my 10th year of recovery from prescription drug addiction and co-occurring mental health disorders. I am now 64 years old.
I see all of the amazing work being done by my younger colleagues in the field of mental health and wellness, and pine to be able to do the same. THIS IS MY GREATEST DESIRE, AND PASSION.
My business and my book, Write Pray Recover:A Journey To Wellness Through Spiritual Solutions and Self Care have definitely served others.
I wonder if I am too old to reach the young demographic that I believe needs to hear my story in order to feel inspiration and hope. Probably.
So, I will continue going forward, seeking all opportunities to share my journey of recovery through an Integrative Approach to Wellness, a program that I created and that I practice using natural and organic solutions alongside of traditional care, when necessary.
And perhaps at the right time, the Universe will provide me with the opportunity that I am seeking…to serve our global population. A worldwide book and speaking tour.
Perhaps…
