I love working with a kaleidoscope, a mirror ball, and trees to help me understand various perspectives! I use these tools to benefit myself and others! Practicing my method, Integrating the Spirals helps me let go of judgment and gives me more ease in my day-to-day life when I become aggravated (triggered) by something someone says that I don’t agree/align with.
Lies are one perspective
Having been married to two former husbands who consistently lied to me for various reasons (one was an alcoholic who gaslit me and cheated, and the other was a drug-addict who also cheated by the end of our relationship), I finally sought help via 12 step-groups, group and individual counseling therapy. I read many self help and personal transformation books, and years later, began writing books myself. Let me be clear, I do not condone domestic violence or trafficking in any form or for any reason.
I find the topic of Lies fascinating though and I have worked with clients one-on-one, using such tools as mirror balls and kaleidoscopes, to find new perspectives—and always with the thought in mind to self empower clients (and mySelf) by reaching for the next better feeling thought!
So far, we’re just getting started. But the parts of the trial I’ll be focused on (and what so far, I think is going to be the crux of the trial) are highlighted in the following paragraph (from the USA Today story link above):
Now, that the Diddy trial is over, we shall see what his sentence is. I had a feeling though, that he wasn’t going to be found guilty on the worst of the charges.

The social channels where I am most active (after thoroughly testing out others in 2024, I’ve dropped a few. My stats revealed almost no one opened my blog posts from Substack, Locals, or Instagram. I still have accounts there but I won’t be posting to those anymore):
I am grateful for fellow authors and blogger pals, like Michael D. LeFevre, author of He Was Weird.
Once you read, He Was Weird, the story will stick with you. Within the pages of this book is a multifaceted story that holds deep meaning for parents, teenagers, teachers, and those in authority. The story of will grip you. It won’t let you go until you reach the final conclusion, which isn’t simply what the boy does, or why, but how his actions change (both directly and indirectly) all of those around him.
While reading the first few chapters, it occurred to me that I wasn’t the target audience for this book because “I’m not a sports person,” nor do I have teenage children. I’m not a school teacher, or authoritarian figure who might influence a teen either. I wondered if I could make it through the book! But we do have a 13-year old granddaughter who is on the Autism spectrum. We think she’s outgrown most of it, but we do still find that she needs help, like more time to complete her school assignments. My daughter works with said granddaughter’s teachers and school administrators to give her that extra allotment of time, thankfully. But other kids have bullied our granddaughter and I’ve offered her the same advice my mother gave me when I was little. I was bullied from the time I was in kindergarten. Ah! So, there’s the touch point.
The more I read of the bullying our main character endured, the more hooked I became in this book. Though the story is about a boy, I could still relate a bit. Especially the name calling. Even as a girl, I got physically hit, had hair pulled, and had toys broken when I was little, so there’s that. But overall, I think the bullying made me think less of myself–it dropped my sense of ‘self esteem’. And in this case, for a young boy on the Autism spectrum who suffered deficits in attention, motor control, and perception (DAMP), it was so much worse. I connected with him, while thinking of my granddaughter and how she absorbs words and actions deeply, and as some would say, “takes EVERYTHING to heart.”
Book cover: He Was Weird, by Michael D. LeFevre
I won’t give you spoilers because there’s so much action within the pages of He Was Weird. Besides the main characters, there are many others you will get to know. There are characters you’ll love and several you’ll want to hate. There will be characters you’ll side with and those you’ll want to kick out of the job or office they’re in. I sympathized with several and couldn’t imagine living in their shoes. And there were many I would never want to know, much less live near. But I don’t want to spoil it for you. I will say, be prepared to sit with this book and learn lessons from it. There’s plenty of blame to go around by the end. This book is engaging and potentially life-saving. You’ll see.
We’re down to earth (even if we are conspiracy theorists) not in the ground yet! Just dancing around in the mystifying Multiverse… all humble like. But we’re always thinking, onward and upwards! And since I haven’t had much feedback, I’ve decided to focus on the following topics for 2025, continuing to dance with my strange and unusual sides. Thus, in upcoming blog posts I’ll write about:
Balancing Perspectives
Expanding Consciousness
Self Reflection
Kaleidoscope Method
Mirrorball Perspectives
Moral Ambiguities
Multifaceted
Multiverse

It’s December 15th, 2024; We’ve got a new original song for you today. If I had you now is sung by Doug Stokes. This original song was recorded by Beaird Music Group of Nashville, TN. https://www.beairdmusicgroup.com
This is the three-hundred-fiftieth new music post for 2024! This is part love song and part ‘missing you’ song. When Richard wrote this, I can imagine he was longing for someone true in his life. I’m glad he eventually found me!
If I had you now. Music, lyrics, and video by Richard Murrey.
I often read articles I disagree with
I challenge myself as part of my daily process (and practice what I preach and teach in Integrating the Spirals), by reading blog articles, or other media on topics or perspectives that differ from mine. Case in point, at first glance I disagreed with the following article, but after reading it, I sat with this blogger’s perspective and appreciated their insights and information. There are myriad points within the article that make sense to me (I’ve never agreed with having Christmas trees on church altars, and I do believe a LOT of people fall for the over-commercialism of the holiday). However, the overall philosophy presented here differs from mine–because I view our Creator (or the Dao) as Limitless Omniscience. But folks, reading material like THIS, is how we broaden our perspectives and expand our consciousness! We must coexist!
I challenge my beliefs every single day. Not because I aim to be perfect but because I always (in ALL ways) want to make virtuous progress while enjoying the journey and Connecting. I’m human. I’m real. I strive for transparency and forthrightness, but I am fallible. Nobody’s ‘Perfect.’ I’m probably not ‘rightly dividing the word of God’ when I read the scriptures, but then again, which version of the Bible are you (and this blog article’s author) reading? (Hint: I don’t just read one version.)
Boundaries? Okay. But be flexible too!
Last night, my daughter came over and though I had our door locked (which is always my cue that we’re in bed), my slippers were at the foot of our stairs (my cue to my husband that I’m upstairs in the sauna and not to be disturbed), I had not fully communicated these two cues to my daughter–and it was sort of an emergency. She needed me, her mom, to listen and give her some emotional support. So, she knocked on the door. Richard was in the kitchen but heard her and went to the door to let her in. She asked where I was and he told her, “Upstairs.” So, up she came but stopped at the closed door upstairs and asked me, “Are you in or out of the sauna?” I was just getting in and had just set my phone up to play some new songs I had wanted to listen to by blogger/songwriter cookie nieves.
I got into the sauna and then welcomed my daughter to come into the room. She visited for my entire sauna session. When I was done, I invited her to meet me downstairs (so I could get dressed). She stayed another couple of hours and we ended with big hugs. My ‘Mom job’ was done. Though I didn’t get to relax to cookie’s songs as I’d planned. I know there’s no rush, but I had literally just sent a comment to cookie that I was going to listen. Best laid plans, right?
My daughter and I had a wonderful visit though, and I did a little EFT for her too (she’s still not interested in learning/using it for herself though). And that’s okay. We each learn at differing rates of speed and along the path of the spiral, it’s ALL good.

It’s December 5th, 2024; We’ve got a fun original song for y’all today. Are you fixed features Bubba Hudson on vocals, asking the title question. I suppose anyone dating these days might find this an appropriate song. I know I remember being a bit shocked when I first heard it, wondering why Richard would pen such a song. Ha! It did go over quite well with the crowd when Richard’s band, The Righteous Buds, used to play it out Live.
This is the three-hundred-thirty-seventh new music post for 2024! This original song was recorded at Steven Cooper’s music studio in Nashville, TN. I remember asking Richard if he thought Bubba kept a straight face while singing it. What do you think?
Are you fixed. Music, lyrics, and video by Richard Murrey.

Straight talk
I don’t know. Sometimes I think I should give up trying to make sense of the memes I see. Oh, wait, it’s because there’s so much chaos, and so many sides to every story. Let me see. Perhaps we all need to be fixed. Then again, check out the stats in this meme regarding the drop in sperm count. Maybe all the women who are upset about seeming losing the federal right to an abortion are focused on the wrong aspect of the situation. One day, they may want a baby, and will be unable to conceive.
Meme: “So, let’s get this straight. The United States: 4% of the world’s population; 70% of the Pharmaceutical profits; 50-90% of studies funded by Big Pharma; 38% of 12-19 year olds are pre-diabetic; 7% adults are metabolically healthy; 50% drop in sperm count in 40 years; The most pandemic deaths; The most chronic disease; The most autoimmune conditions; The shortest lifespan. And yet this sick-care system still has the audacity to tell us to sit down & shut up?” –Dr. Will Cole / @DrWillCole
Let me get my kaleidoscope out. You can think of it almost as one would when they say, “Let me get my crystal ball.” I look into the kaleidoscope (and teach a class on that) to garner myriad perspectives on an issue.
