Windy November

Today the sky was crystal clear and it was even calm out on the coast. The wind has picked up this evening and blew the tarp covering off my redwood deck. I suppose I will have to invest another eight bucks for a new one at ACE in the morning.That thing has lasted a whole year and has protected my privacy and has provided plenty of shade during the summer.Today it was very apparent that weather changes are on the move.

I was able to collect a whole big canvas bag full of rocks at Russian Gulch.After driving through Santa Rosa I stopped by Michaels Art store to pick up some paints and metallic stickers.It was good to take a drive and let things ride today. I am not feeling particularly creative today, so I should do other things to have the Spirit move me.The rock below is sort of a Buddhist Mandala in honor of my sister, Tara.

An Attitude of Gratitude

This month being November,is the time of year where I like to reflect on all the kind blessings that have been extended throughout the year.I would especially like to thank all you that have purchased Your Spirit Rocks™ this past year. Your support has kept this particular Quest growing steadily.My hope is that the "glow" has brought each of you a sense of peace and serenity in these trying times.I know that it hasn't been easy for many of you, but your hope for a better future is what will bring this very vision into being. Admittedly, it has been difficult even for me to make the time to get quiet, and let the guidance and direction of The Holy Spirit in.May this coming Thanksgiving be just that for each and every one of you. Your Spirit Rocks ON !!

Glowing Inspiration...

I came across this hopeful and inspiring video and have reposted it because of it's relevance to things that are illuminated brightly.The doctor in this video is talking about a "Tumor Paint" that is derived from the Israeli "Death Stalker Scorpion". as it is explained in this video,it will help doctors see cancerous brain cells without disturbing healthy cells so that they can better perform delicate operations.This may be the medical breakthrough for 2014 after it completes it's third clinical trial in Australia.
