I continue my reflections on my spiritual pilgrimage to Peru in July 2018 in this latest blog post - 200 Steps to the Principle of Gratitude

Hi Christina. Welcome to the community! I love the comment you feature on you rhome page that says "Suffering of the Soul occurs when we are disconnected from the essence of who we are".

Welcome again, and I hope you will share some of your work here. I have already looked at some of your blogs and would love to reference them on Twitter....
Welcome Christina,
Fascinating website you have. I hope you will find this site intriguing and the various blogs, forums, and groups to your liking. Hope to see your posts soon.
