I Am No Fool (& neither are YOU)

I Am No Fool (& neither are YOU)

It is April Fools Day and I want to declare in front of God and everybody that I am Eva and I am a FOOL for LOVE! (“Hi Eva!!” I hear my AA friends murmuring from the audience). I have not posted here for many months, which of course does not mean I haven’t been writing, extending love to my thoughts, life, schedule, and strengthening my own health. I was reminded via Facebook’s “On This Day” that today marks my third Bloggaversary of Twelvemonth of Self Love. I read my one-year Bloggaversary post and am reminded what a big deal it was for me to embark upon my Twelvemonth of extending love to...

G’Day Gratitude

G’Day Gratitude

Hello my friends.  It has been a few weeks since I last connected with you and I have missed you.  I miss sitting still and listening to my heart as I share.  There is something quite precious about writing from the heart knowing that there are those who could be listening…………..perhaps even my own self. I have recently returned from a rather lovely trip to Australia. Those of you who know me know this is more a returning home than a vacation. My husband is Australian and both of our daughters were born in Australia. We were going this time for a family (army family!)...

Love: Fool’s Errand or Lion Tamer?

Love:  Fool’s Errand or Lion Tamer?

Two years ago today I began my adventure of a Twelvemonth of Self Love by extending love to my epic fears (one fear a month for twelve months) and blogging daily about my experience.  I purposely began blogging on April Fool’s Day as I wasn’t yet totally sure that I wasn’t sending myself on a fool’s errand to see if Love really was enough to meet fear head on.  It feels dramatic to say it changed my life but what it did was totally change my own experience of my life.  By this I mean, life unfolded; events (both once-in-a-lifetime and daily) happened, I met new...

12. Day 28: Twelve Fears Later…

12. Day 28:  Twelve Fears Later…

It is time to talk about my thoughts and feelings of having blogged daily for a whole year (that’s 365 days!). Yes, I officially made my first blog post on March 25, 2014 (in the middle of a trip to my nephew’s wedding in Nashville).  Extending love to my epic fears is something I could have done privately without the added work of cataloguing my experience.  I could have just felt the difference but, then, would I have remembered the process?  What if I needed to do it again?  What if you wanted to follow along and do this for yourself?  What if we needed to get home and a bird...

11. Day 7: 10 Things I Love About Me

11. Day 7:  10 Things I Love About Me

One of the benefits of writing a daily blog is that I don’t need to put so much pressure on myself over the content/value/importance of each and every post. This is eerily mimicking daily life.  If I notice my life as a whole, any single day is just a part of something whole and beautiful and powerful.  When I look at the blog as a whole, it (and by association the writer, um, that’s me) is already a huge success. (Is this what I was really afraid of?  Finding out I am already a success???).   I showed up every day. Even the two or three days that I double posted or made one post...

10. Day 11: On Blogging Daily & Going Commando

10. Day 11:  On Blogging Daily & Going Commando

I am only now beginning to glimpse how valuable this daily blog is to me.  I began with guidance, in this case the word “twelvemonth”.  Then twelvemonth revealed itself as a “Twelvemonth of Self Love”.  I already journal daily.  I am also composing a Holy Dictionary with the incredible and beautiful definitions I hear from Holy Spirit.  I write poetry because even my own wordiness gets in my way of expression and only the limits of a poem offers the relief of truth expressed.  I also wrote a blog called Salvation Chronicles when I was first testing out my voice,...
