Years ago, I was a married mother of one completely entrenched in the short-sighted capitalistic American dream. Then, I woke up. It occurred to me that just because someone dreamed that dream, it didn’t mean it had to be mine. So, I decided to dream a new dream and make that one my own: sustainable capitalism.
Now, I am a freelance writer and spiritual philosopher. I took back my life and decided to make it meaningful to me, regardless of what anyone else thought of my choices. That decision has been an inner tube ride down the rapids of life. It has been interesting. Along the way, I came back to the American Dream and redefined it for myself. Money is good. So is life and spirit. We all have to make our own choices.

This blog is about making our lives meaningful and rich in spiritual wealth. Spiritual wealth is not only about material possessions, but about the intangibles that also promote happiness and spiritual growth. I ended up enrolling in a Master’s program for Transpersonal Psychology at Naropa University and have really looked at this question in depth. How can we live our lives so that everyday is a source of new inspiration, happiness, and joy? How can we set the example for the next generation to learn how to live sustainable lives of happiness that don’t exploit the planet and our neighbors? I am hoping to do my little part in this great Shift in consciousness we are experiencing now.
