For a lot of years, I was concerned what other people thought of me. It lasted way too long. When I turned 50 (ok no comments!), I suddenly didn’t care what others thought of me.

The Aftermath of My Father’s Death
My father has been dead for a little over a month now and things have drastically changed for me. It truly has been a blessing in disguise.

A Blessing in Disguise
As I mentioned before, my father died on March 22, Saturday. When I got the call from older sister, I’d already known from my oldest sister’s posts that my father had died.

The Castle
As I said previously, I thought the door I saw in my vision, was an old door. It had a rounded top at the top of the door. After a while, I realized that the door was a castle door. The image of myself was being small standing in front of this door. Small as… Continue reading The Castle
The Last Door
I don’t remember how this came up during a life coaching session with my massage therapist, but I brought up the feeling and idea of the Last Door.
