Responding To The Call
By
Edie Weinstein, MSW, LSW
Lately the line has been ringing off the hook with calls from the Universe that send tingles down my spine, buzzing in my ears, rattling in my bones (in a good way), hair standing on end, and goosebumps on my arms which I refer to as my ‘truth barometer’. I laugh when I wonder why I…
With An Open Hand
By

“Renew, release, let go. Yesterday’s gone. There’s nothing you can do to bring it back. You can’t “should’ve” done something. You can only DO something. Renew yourself. Release that attachment. Today is a new day!” Steve Maraboli Life, the Truth and Being Free What are you holding onto that’s holding on to you? In my case, ghosts…

“Having made the decision to love, had I chosen life instead of death?” -Richard Bach Those who have been reading the Bliss Blog for awhile, may know that one of my favorite authors is Richard Bach; he of the vivid imagination and relationships with characters that are, in essence, at times, writing the stories and…
Passionate Life
By
Edie Weinstein, MSW, LSW
What are you passionate about? What lights you up from the inside and turns you into a human sparkler? Is there something that you simply can’t wait to do when you get up (after taking care of necessary bodily functions, of course)? For me, it is writing. I found my calling pretty early in life…
Outrageous Requests

“Great things are only possible with outrageous requests.”-Thea Alexander This morning I woke up considering what it is I would be sharing in the Bliss Blog today and a thought crossed my mind, that had been lingering for the past few days. What is it that I settle for, rather than asking for what I…
You-niverse

“Do not feel lonely. The entire Universe is Inside You.” ~Rumi When we are born, we enter into a multi-sensory realm that is quite different from the cozy, contained watery world in which our tiny bodies and beings floated for 9 months or so. As we emerge from our chrysallis, in many ways like a butterfly,…

“Speak your mind, even if your voice shakes, for well aimed sling shots can topple giants.”-Maggie Kuhn, 1905-1995 I was just thinking about Maggie Kuhn who I had the pleasure of interviewing in the 1990’s. She was the outspoken founder of The Gray Panthers which evolved out of her experience of forced retirement from…
Renovation
By
Edie Weinstein, MSW, LSW
“Don’t Worry, Be Happy.”-Meher Baba My house is currently in renovation mode which began about a month ago with the redesigning of my bathroom, leading out in to the hallway with the refinishing and retreading of the spiral staircase and then spreading out to repainting the living room and dining room. At the moment, the…
Innocence
By
Edie Weinstein, MSW, LSW
How many people could look into the eyes of an infant and not see innocence? Conversely, how many look into our adult eyes through our adult eyes and see something less than whole and holy? I am raising my hand as acknowledgement of both of those experiences. I have been poring through boxes upon boxes…
The Greatest
By
Edie Weinstein, MSW, LSW
I was born to a father who was a Golden Gloves boxer in the Navy and when my younger sister and I would fight, he would have us don boxing gloves, mouth pieces and head gear and have us go at it in the living room. We would swat at each other and laugh instead.…
