    New Perspectives

    Copyrighted by Lorna Tedder. Originally published in Passion to the Third Degree. I never know whether to chuckle or give the kid a hug, but Shannon has a new job for the summer.

  • Lesser Evils: Lessons from the Universe

    Lesser Evils: Lessons from the Universe

    It’s been a series of coincidences that just kept me from having to have major, major repairs to the house. At least several thousand after insurance, if insurance covered any of it at all. The coincidences make it almost pleasant when I think of what could have been. I do believe my angels were extra…

    The Spiritual Importance of Relationships

    I adore M, my counselor, who’s also a gifted psychic. I don’t talk to him often, partly because it takes weeks and even months to absorb all the things he makes me think about, and this session is no exception. He uses multiple decks of Tarot cards, his own clairvoyance, and his training as a…
