For redefinition, I was thrown back to myself, to my inner knowing… Marilyn Sewell, Cries of the Spirit The Authentic Voice Project: Week 8 (New Moon) H is for Healing The medical world believes healing is taking a patient with a clinical diagnosis and controlling their physical symptoms enough for them to function as “normally” [...]

For redefinition, I was thrown back to myself, to my inner knowing… Marilyn Sewell, Cries of the Spirit The Authentic Voice Project: Week 6 (New Moon) F is for Fornication When I was six, I learned to pronounce it. At ten, I knew what it meant. And at eighteen it was burned into my chest. [...]

Authentic Voice Project: E is for Evil

Posted in Authentic Voice Project, Emerging Voice, Journaling Techniques & Prompts on March 8, 2012 | 2 Comments »

The Authentic Voice Project: Week 5 (Full Moon) E is for Evil In my opinion the most evil word in the dictionary is, well, evil. It bites, slices, crushes; it infects, sickens, kills. I believe this word is too often thrown around where it doesn’t belong. It instills fear of rejection and shame in those [...]

The Authentic Voice Project: Week 4 (New Moon) D is for Drive Society says: Drive is good. Drive is what allows one to come from nothing and go to something.

It is not selfish or self-centered, but a recognition of “our [...]

Authentic Voice Project: C is for Contentment

Posted in Authentic Voice Project, Emerging Voice, Journaling Techniques & Prompts, Looking for the Spiritual on February 7, 2012 | 1 Comment »

The Authentic Voice Project: Week 3 (Full Moon) C is for Contentment Ahhh, contentment. Society says: Contentment is swinging on a hammock while staring at the sky. It is walking along a beach, hand-in-hand with your love, golden retriever bounding by your side. At least that’s what the commercials would have us believe. But most [...]
