About Whispering Wind

What do you Hear in the Wind?

Whispering Wind is a blog dedicated to uncovering the secrets of a living a joyful life. It explores my journey to spiritual freedom, boundless abundance, personal growth and unconditional love.  

I’m a writer, artist, and educator from rural Appalachia. I grew up close to nature,  to family and to Creator. As Dolly Parton sings in her song, “Coat of Many Colors”, “although we had no money , oh, I was rich as I could be….”

LOVE IS THE ONLY WAY

We live in a world where millions of voices are shouting at us, telling us where to go, what to wear, how to think. There is so much noise, but deep inside us there is a longing to be connected to the universe, to our Creator, to each other.

There is a “way” of balance, peace, and harmony, of spiritual growth, mental clarity, physical health and longevity. All of these things are connected and that’s what I discuss in this blog.

I would like you to journey with me as I explore ways to be healthy, spiritual, mindful, connected, creative, alert and alive. It is my wish that we learn together.

I feel that in this world of everyone living “perfect” lives on social media and shouting to be heard, it’s good to hear a voice in the wind, a soft whisper that says, “I love you–unconditionally. You are enough.”

I invite you to visit me here often. We are all human, not perfect in ourselves. Love, the genuine acceptance and appreciation of each other, is what perfects us. Love is the way, the only way.

I too had lot of headaches growing up& never felt good enough.I was bullied at school & made fun of because my dresses were to bid& not pretty. God healed me also as a young married woman& he made me realize I belong to him. That he loves me.thank you we have all suffered & our savior helped ud
