It was about 6 years ago that my father died.   I was already caretaker to a seriously ill mother, and quickly becoming broke from the expenses of her support and the demise of the real estate market.

I have purchased and given away dozens of copies of The Power of Now.   Having read it myself at least 100 times, my life has healed from integrating the lessons of presence.  I began to contemplate what an enlightened partnership might look like for me.  I had never actually seen or witnessed a couple being together in authentic love, but my imagination was inspired to write The Couples Song, which I have attached.

After my father died, I took a few of the dollars he left me and had a series of powerful energy treatments.  Six months later I met Wanda.  From our first moments, our togetherness was all about love and laughter.  What I wrote in The Couples Song is now my every day experience.

We’re coming up on 4 years together, and a second wedding anniversary this month, and it has been effortless harmony and joy from the start.  The drama and conflict so common in relationships is no longer part of my experience, and our relationship has become a light unto the world, and we have people approaching us and asking for coaching and guidance on how to achieve something like this for themselves.  I marvel at this when I remember being the only person I have ever known to have been thrown out of group therapy.

My amazing life is testimony to the Power of Now.  I exist almost constantly in a state of graceful gratitude for my life.  Blessings and love to my teacher whom I have never met.

Namaste,

I have also learned to be more compassionate in daily activities, which is something my ego never allowed me to do much. I started living the present moment more about five years ago after some major surgery that really made me think about who I really am...
