At one time or another, we’ve all gone through the heartache of losing a loved one, be it a friend, a parent, a partner, a child, a colleague, a pet, a soulmate; and that loss can carve away at our very essence. But it can also be a catalyst for finding our highest and best selves and for discovering that most elusive of qualities called peace. This is my story—my memoir, 'Moving with God PAST THE PAIN... of divorce, death or any parting of lives once joined'—the true account of an extraordinary year in which I went from a woman despairing to a woman empowered. Perhaps in some small way, my story will touch you. My Biography: When writing a biography, how does one truly answer the question: Who am I? I could say I write books and poetry, teach literature and writing courses part-time at a university and conduct writing and meditation workshops. I could add that I speak at conferences, churches and book club meetings about my book, myself and other things. I travel on business and for recreation, with my most recent ‘fun’ trips including a trek, river rafting adventure and jungle safari in Nepal, another trek to Machu Picchu, a vacation to Hawaii, a visit with my son and his wife in Canada, a whirlwind tour of New York City, a hike into the depths of the Grand Canyon and another to the top of Half Dome, a bike trip through Croatia and two 10-day silent meditation retreats just outside of Yosemite and Sun Valley, respectively. I run, hike, bike, ski, garden and dance. I love life. Or I could speak about how I feel—I’m happy, happier, I think, than I’ve ever been; but sad, too, at times, especially if I'm brooding about some past event or worrying about the future instead of being mindful and at peace in the present moment. I’m leading the life I’ve chosen most of the time, doing the things I love and being, for the most part, the person I want to be. I still, of course, have much to learn, do and become, but I’m excited about that, all of it. And I could write about who I’ve been—the mother of three incredible human beings, the former wife of a dear friend, the partner or former partner of some wonderful men who have added—and still add—joy and blessings to my life; the author of one published book and the soon-to-be author of two others; a presenter, life coach and motivational speaker. But no matter what I say, most of who I am still remains a mystery even to me, for it resides in the secret chambers of my heart; and even I have only occasional glimpses of it now and then—when I look into the eyes of my sons and see their goodness, for example, or when I dance or ski or laugh with the people—or pups—that I love; or when out in nature I feel the power and pulse of every living being within my soul. My greatest achievements are not my books or classes or titles or trips but the love I share with others and the desire I have to make a bit of difference somehow in this whole, huge, turbulent, beautiful world.
