Taylor Last Wish








Taylor's Wish



Taylor Martin is my hero.
Taylor is about to be 21 years of age,
but he has lived lifetimes more
than anyone I know who is so young.

Taylor was a beautiful little sports
loving boy when he was diagnosed at age 5
with NF-2, a rare disease that creates
painful tumors throughout his brain
and spine. He had his first brain surgery
at age ten. Since them Taylor has had
innumerable surgeries. Loving sports,
but unable to play, Taylor kept the
sports stats for the San Clemente high
school teams.
They love him.
Taylor captures the hearts of
everyone who meets him.

A few years before he graduated from high school,
Taylor was sitting in school one day when he
went completely deaf because of the progress
of NF-2. Slowly the disease has taken over
Taylor's body. Luckily it cannot penetrate
Taylors strong heart. Taylor has spoken to
schools and groups about staying positive
in life and loving God. How I admire this
young man who has become my friend!

Taylor is now in a wheelchair. Subsequent
surgieries have taken their toll.
I have tried to learn a bit of sign language
to make it easier to communicate with Taylor,
but he knows the real essence of communication.
His gentle hand on my arm always tells me
how much Taylor apprciates just the simple
act that his friends stop by to see him.

Recently a young 22 year-old Los Anegles Angel
baseball player Nick Adenhart was killed in
a hit and run accident. Nick's death hit Taylor
hard. Taylor felt that such a healthy talented
youth should have gotten the chance to live.

Taylor has one more request, other than to live
to his 21st birthday in May. He asked that a
request be sent to all his friends that he is
ready to go home.

It was with a deep bittersweetness that I read
that email from Taylor's mother, but I know if
anyone deserves a grand homecoming it is this
sweet, divine young man.

And I will help pray Taylor home...


Meanwhile...Live as Taylor would want you all to do.

Remember who you are!

Amma, Divine Mother Retreat


Attending a Full Moon with Amma, Divine Mother





Returning to Sedona, on her
World Blessing Tour
Amma (Sri Karunamayi) delighted
us with an offer to come meditate
with her under the
full moon of the beautiful red rocks.

Experiencing time with an enlightened master is always breathtaking
to me, especially to know that Amma believes we can all do this.


In a departure from her more mediative approach, Amma spoke to
us as a Mother, giving practical advice for these times.

If ever there was a sign of hope, it is in masters like
Amma who embody the divine in such an appealing way.

Rather than thinking a master is boring, Amma is fun, delightful
and loves to laugh.

She told some wonderful stories about the yogis and the amazing things
that happens with them. What Amma never mentioned is that
she too is an amazing yogi with divine abilities
surrounding her tiny human frame.

Those abilities are within every one of you. Every one is meant to shine
like the glorious full moon we we treated to.

Every one of you was sent the healing energy of Amma last week. I hope
you are still relishing in the love of the great mother. When you are in the
presence of a being who loves you with a divine love, something
inside you changes. You want to be like that and love others in the same way.

Your very essense is love. Revel in it. And shine, shine, shine.

Meanwhile...Shine away!

Remember who you are!

The Magdalene Easter Egg













Inside the Grace Cathedral in San Francisco is
a striking painting of Mary Magdalene holding a
stunning red egg.

The story goes that Mary Magdalene was called
before the Emperor Tiburius ofRrome.
She gave the Emperor a gift of an egg and
explained Christ's resurrection as symbolic of an egg.

Naturally, the emperor was skeptical. Tiburius remarked that
if that were true, then let the egg turn colored.
The egg in Mary Magdalene hand turned bright red.

This is what started the tradition of
coloring and exchanging eggs at Easter.

Our minds don't always welcome
enormous new thinking like imagining an egg to be red.
Yet it is enormous thinking that will get you out of
whatever situation you are in,
transforming it into a completely
new and desirable form.

What can be changed or transformed in your life?
What new colors would show up if you let them?
Let yourself be open to enormous thinking
this Easter and always.

Meanwhile...Have the Best Easter!
Rise to your best self!

Remember who you are!
