Align With Keepers
Ultimately, the God is me is one with the God in everyone. But that doesn’t mean I have to hang out with them! Seeing someone with the eyes of love and spending all my time with them are two entirely different things. Today I notice the quality of my relationships....
How Do I Get Over Unrequited Love?
Dear Meli, A few years ago, I got out of a toxic marriage. I am so grateful that I had the courage to leave. It took a lot to remove myself from the whole situation, but I did it, and I've grown a lot since then. Which brings me to my current dilemma. I'm currently...
Become Unconditional Love
I am a vessel of unconditional love. That doesn’t mean I’m always aware of this truth. That’s why spiritual practice exists! I practice knowing that I am love. I meditate on myself as a being of love. I affirm that my heart opens more every day. I pray for a deeper...
How Can I Embrace the Aging Process?
Dear Meli, I'm getting older. This should make me happy, right? I'm healthy. I have a great marriage. I have a wonderful relationship with my grown children. But I find myself looking at my aging body with despair. I know that I've absorbed societal views of aging,...
Turns Out, Nonviolent Protests Are Actually Incredibly Effective
I love love. I love peace. I want to see peace and love thrive in every area of life, including the political arena. But still. I’ve had my doubts. Sure, it feels good to be in a crowd of like-minded individuals, all standing for peace and love and justice. It feels...
Are You Listening for the SSH?
There’s a phenomenon I’ve been aware of for years now, but haven’t talked about with anyone other than Melissa. I figured it was time to put it out to the readers of this blog and see if any of y’all have this happen. Does any of this sound familiar? You have...
The Thing About Days Is There’s Usually Another One
I recently had a doozy of a day. And I don’t mean doozy like it was nifty. Or fun. Or even slightly adequate. At first, things seemed to be going well enough. I woke up. I was breathing. But I was tired. I woke up earlier than I wanted to, so it felt like I was...
My Encounter With the Smiling and Waving Guru
I like to think of myself as a kind person. Not super kind. Like, I’m not going to be going too far out of my way to help those in need. I’m not hopping on board planes to deliver supplies to the latest casualties of global warming. I’m not inviting unhoused folks to...
How Do I Release Religious Sexual Shame?
Dear Meli, I grew up in a strict, religious household. Once I left home, and the church, I thought I'd never go back. And I haven't. But I do have an ever-increasing interest in spirituality. This time, though, it's not about rules from without. It's about...
Help! My Spouse and I Have Incompatible Working Styles!
Dear Meli, My wife and I have been married for about 10 years, and we are very compatible. We share the same spiritual beliefs and practices, which helps a lot. But we're also just really compatible in general. At least, I thought we were! We recently started a...
A Good Mistake to Make When You’re First Setting Boundaries
I’m a big fan of boundaries. They’ve been a lifesaver for me. That’s not to say it’s easy to set them. It’s still hard for me to set boundaries, even after years of planting those suckers all over the place. In spite of the difficulty of setting them, I like to think...
How Can I Get My Family to Respect My Dying Wish?
Dear Meli, I have an unusual dilemma. I have been diagnosed with terminal cancer. And I’m okay with that. I am electing not to do heroic treatments. I am 84 years old and have lived a wonderful life. The treatments would just prolong my life, but also prolong my...
