For all us in time
To step into the atha, where eternity is
happening-now. To be able to die to the
past and give up the illusion of a future is
to be born into the present.
The first book in a two-volume library of ideas weaves together diverse topics and explores the science of consciousness and the opposing views of objective and subjective reality to reveal not only where they intersect, but how we can navigate through their apparent divergent truths to discover where those truths lie—that eternal place where time dissolves and all possibilities exist.
In the second book of this profound collection of essays and stories, the author continues to offer new insights regarding how interconnected we are with one another and how the choices we make concerning the happiness of others defines our past, present and future reality—and determines how happy we allow ourselves to be.

The author doesn’t provide dry, factual accounts or tell you what you should or should not do in order to be happy. Rather, her insights and mastery with words create pathways in the reader’s consciousness that challenge habitual assumptions of reality, time, and possibilities, triggering a remembrance of what it means to be delighted with life and the myriad of opportunities it provides. If we want to enter into a new futuristic reality, we must observe and question the patterns of our past and be adventurous enough to reweave, rewrite, and thus rewire ourselves for a better future. Habits are learned behaviors. The good news is that something learned can be unlearned. We can start now and create a new type of tapestry using colorful threads derived from organic local sources of joy, compassion, and love. And in time may our future selves be delighted.

Most mornings she appears, eyes wide open, in a train of cloth declaiming key words and phrases over and over with a sort of “Eureka!” mantra effect. She cannot be delayed in her trip to the keyboard until the essay, story, or poem is scribed. This writing is truly inspired!
