What is spring if it isn’t about new life? And why not new life with wild abandon, with an abundance that makes you laugh out loud? This time Spring has really done it in Tucson. I couldn’t walk this path through Catalina State Park without wanting to sing, to howl, to do cartwheels! We aren’t in Kansas any more. And …
Sand Spirit Two Minds
What do you see in this image? I see a figure with two minds squeezed into one head. I guess, since the Sand Spirit I draw always reflects me, that I have two minds. Of course this is true.

Other times I see the higher Self holding the smaller self, and the smaller self feeling so good, so protected, so seen and so loved. Today it’s all of …
What is it?
Is it a piece of crumpled paper? a well-worn piece of leather? Or an aerial photo of a river system?
