The numbers 7 and 3 are magical in my life.  Seven defines the mysterious.  It is the number of my birth path.  Three is about communication and it is the number for a writer.

At the age of 3 (not a surprise), I told my mother that I had three great books to write. The little me didn't know what synchronicity was or how it tied to my being born on the third day of the month or why I was connecting at the age of three to a new reality or even how I had a knowing that three books were depending on me. It did seem pretty 'important'. It was my Mom's smile that I remember more than the circle of threes. She added these words of encouragement: "Then you better get started!"

Dad made sure I understood to never ‘engage’ in discussions about politics, religion or science. Avoidance would prevent the inevitable clash of beliefs and angry outbursts.

Decades later, after my mom's physical death, I rediscovered the path I could see clearly as an innocent. It's a journey that has waited for my return. Of course, as an independent spirit, my first work puts religion, politics and science upfront and center on the path to truth.

Bless my Dad's heart, I just had to honor the long still inner voice. Mom and Dad would have been proud to see my first work published.
