My wish has always been the same, always always “Peace on Earth.”

I like the way my consciousness has shifted and metamorphosized in preparation of this global gift being realized.

My wish went big when I realized that having my own needs met didn’t do it for me.
When I wished for things, they always came.
When I wanted, I always got whatever it was.

Then I looked around, listened to the news, listened to my friends, and something felt icky.
I wanted Peace and Pleasureful wishes granted for everyone. Nothing less would do.

My view has been very wide, and global for a long time. Now it is getting personal while integrating locally and globally.

In June 2008, I came to San Francisco to complete my Masters of Science degree Orientation in Integratvie EcoSocial Design, with Gaia University.

This is my opportunity to express the story and songs I have been living and breathing for years in my travels and work as a Permaculture Design Artist. In the past 2 years, something has become clear to me. I see and know peace is not only possible, it is prevailing everywhere, even now. Where one would question this statement, one is looking at appearances.

I am starting to get that much of my life, I have looked more deeply into the potential of appearances.
I have seen the Spirit that unites us. Nature taught me this. Nature really is the nurturing, loving Mother of my whole life. Nature is the wisdom behind Permaculture.

It is my wish to see a Permaculture Design fulfilled across our planet.
Geoff Lawton is already doing a great job, as is our global family, where they are living in harmony with all life and nature as friend and ally.

I am living in the Bay area, connecting and interconnecting, writing, and exploring bringing a cohesive design to all life here. It is going very well. Life loves life. All I do is share Clarity.

In the time I have been here, 4,000 organic veggies have taken root planted on San Francisco’s City Hall lawn, Kat Steele of The Urban Permaculture Guild, has invited me to see the Frida Kalo exhibit at The SFMOMA ands we heard Fritz Haeg share his slideshow of lawns transformed to Victory gardens across the U.S, and we all laughed with him that these are supported as art projects. All is beautifully documented in “Edible Estates; Attack on the Front Lawn.” Yes, I bought the book.

I have been to an all-night, camp-out, sleep-over at The Exploratorium to watch the Total Solar Eclipse. The art, dance and cultural events going on all night were amazing.

Daily Acts is a group creating and hosting tours and workshops that unite us all in the conversation and in action. I toured The Occidental Arts and Ecology Center, and took the Brock Walk with Brock Dolman, only to be lit again by his profound mastery of all things common sense and watershed-related! Lori Grace took me as her guest to OAEC and to see the Sebastopol City Hall lawn transformed into native grasses and sheet mulch on a hot and sunny day. (Thank you Trathen Heckman, Rick Taylor, and Ellen for all your work on these and more!)

Now I write, cook, dance, hang at all 4 Cafe Gratitudes, and go to church on Sundays at The East Bay Church of Religious Science, when I am not teaching my neighbor kids yoga or going to the mountains with them for hiking up shady oak-lined trails. They had never heard of yoga and had never been hiking before. Life is good. All is well.
