Biography
Born
into a large family in a delightful and picturesque village in
Ireland I moved to Los Angeles at the age of thirty. I guess I
was in the mood for something completely different!! (photo is
of me and my three mothers, my mother and my two older sisters!)
The move to California was undertaken out of a sense of adventure
and a wish to know myself, to know what I was made of, through
being completely out of my comfort zone. I continue to achieve
my goal though these days its more through love than the initial
loneliness and growing pains I first experienced, while I worked
as a successful
animator and watercolor
artist at various studios.
My
spiritual quest led me to Religious
Science in the year 2000 and I felt I had come home. The ideas
I was exposed to allowed me to grow and florish in life like never
before. I finally began to value all aspects of myself and to
know who I truly am. Releasing old judgements and restricting
beliefs I felt more free and truly authentic than ever before.
I was at peace with myself.
I also felt a great sense of being supported in the universe,
aware of the energy of expansion and abundance that exists in
and through everything including myself. Words cannot express
the happiness I feel because of all that I have gained from this
life path, I would not change a step. Though challenges still
present themselves I now have tools to deal with them and new
perspectives from which to view them and that has made all the
difference. After five years of study and practice of the tenets
of Religious Science I graduated as a licenced Spiritual
counselor and it has been my great joy to guide others along
this rewarding path to fulfillment and greater happiness. I am
presently a student of Psychology as I continue to expand my knowledge
of human nature.
For
one human being to love another, that is perhaps the most difficult
of all our tasks,
the
ultimate, the last test and proof, the work for which all other
work is but preparation.
