My seeking to “know” God has evolved through life's struggles and joys for 50 + years. The challenges along the way are the human experience we all are engaged in, unveiling our individual journeys to awakening. The dynamic flow of life through our struggles, pain and joy’s are the path to hearing the still small voice within us. I try to write from this place. Within that we come to experience Grace, Love and Beauty. 

“Here I am, Here I am - hineni.hineni, I love you God, I love you God.” The mind chatter disappears, the intelligence of the heart becomes apparent, our Wisdom is revealed.

As part of the spiritual path to Wholeness, I have gotten better at living with less anxiety and judgement of myself and others, being more at peace, accepting the world as it is. Being able to live more in the moment each day, more of my feelings and mind chatter flow through me, observing them and letting go.

I write about this journey : the anxieties, the past, the present, the future, the hopes, the yearning for God and for an open heart.

From therapy work and through prayer, meditation, Torah, Kabbalah, Eastern philsophy, Buddhist thought and Christian mysticism my poetry explores the inner life as the path to Divine awakening, a discovery into what has been waiting to be revealed from within.

I hope that you will come on this journey with me. Perhaps a poem, a word, a sentence will resonate for you. Please share your journey and what you find and experience with me. At the bottom of each poem there is a space to comment. I look forward to hearing from you.

Additionally you can find my poetry on Facebook, Ritualwell, Boulder Jewish News, Instagram and Substack. Links to all of those are below.

Thank you. May your journey’s be light, and may the Wisdom within be revealed to us all.

Blessings,
