I did not take this picture but I could have. As I meditated for today’s message, I was drawn to the sound right next to me of this exact same thing…a bee sucking up the pollen of my moonflower. It made me giggle. It sounded like JOY. As I […]

…turn back time.

Ahhh, a song I recognize when it was given to me. It is Cher’s, “If I Could Turn Back Time.” In part;
