There
comes a time when one must take a position
that's neither safe, nor political,
nor popular, but he must make it because
his conscience tells him that it's right.

Oh lucky
me...Da Pirate and Leanne
Whitney
|

What
can I say about this most remarkable and brilliant
young woman.
Leanne Whitney is one of the most beautiful spiritual
and physical human beings I have ever met.
Leanne is the director and producer of the
AIDS documentary The Fire
Within. She is multi-gifted to say the least.
Leanne graced my life in 1999 and over a year
later we walked the journey of a lifetime together.
In that year, the
documentary The Fire Within
was shot. Our relationship has been a loving
and spiritual journey together. I am fortunate
to no end, to have such a beautiful friend and
spiritual guide. Thank you falls far short of
the immense gratitude I have for the Universe
bringing our paths together.
Our spirits and
journey continue to evolve. Unio Mystico... |

ANGELS
Angels are the guardians of hope and wonder, the
keepers of magic and dreams. Wherever there is love,
an angel is flying by. Your guardian angel knows
you inside and out, and loves you just the way you
are. Angels keep it simple and always travel light.
Remember to leave space in your relationships so
the angels have room to play. Your guardian angel
helps you find a place when you feel there is no
place to go. Whenever you feel lonely, a special
angel drops in for tea. Angels are with you every
step of the way and help you soar with amazing grace.
After all, we are angels in training; all we have
to do is spread our wings and fly! |
