This Thanksgiving Fairhope, and all of Mobile Bay, had a Sad Miracle. A Sperm Whale, who we named “Spirit” swam up the channel and beached himself about 1,000 feet off shore and in 4 feet of water. He was 35 feet long and 38,000 pounds. When I heard of this…
I’m 72 and grateful to be here RIGHT NOW. Us Christians always knew these days would come. Us environmentalists knew Momma Earth would soon shake it off, shake it off. Us Energy Healers know we are here to bring Christ Consciousness into being. I feel so grateful to be able…
I struggled with external/internal chaos: Loosing friends over political polarization. No patience with presumed ignorance. Morality having no weight in the balance… just financial gain. Being pulled with extremes in diversity. I found myself with a low energy because of all the shit going on in the world today. But…

I remember my Dad as handsome, creative, steadfast & brave. Not necessarily in that order, but only good memories prevail. My Dad, William Herald Allbritten, born Aug. 3, 1922, (or on the 8th as my Granny declared till she died). So, we celebrated BOTH dates. Born in Sulpher Springs, Tennessee,…
Lanice C. Emanuel spoke at the St. Paul’s Episcopal Church in Fairhope, AL. and I went to hear her presentation. She was fabulous. Her story was poignant. She walked up on the stage and her first words were: “I grew up in Pritchard, Alabama and I hated all whites”. What…
Normally I blog about ART… but yesterday I went to the Justice Museum in Montgomery Alabama. I was overwhelmed with sadness and anger to be reminded of how inhumane the blacks were treated in America from the Civil war to World War 11…. and on. We…
This is where I want to be. “On the Wavelength of the Creator’s Voice” In order to be aware and focused 24/7, (yea right?), I read and recommend Lorna Bevan’s monthly posts. The one for June especially had a great impact on me. So, I’m going to share some of…
