God or No God

What's the most loving thing to do?

Taking my book Not So Little Cora public has been an eye opener. The reception has been wonderful and yet unless I make a change, its message will be inaccessible to many.

Why?

I use the word “God” to describe the love that is bigger than we are or Life itself.

The use of that word has triggered a powerful wound around the word God and prevented the greater messaging from being heard. And because of the word ‘God’, Not So Little Cora can’t be used in public schools here in Nova Scotia.

Even though over 6.5 billion people on the planet believe in a higher power, God is a word laden with baggage and often not allowed in the public domain.

One of Cora’s ‘not-so-imaginary’ friends helps her understand what the word God means. Cora knows there is something outside of herself that is a mystery. She asks-

“What is breathing us? I don’t have to think about it at all; my body just knows what to do.”

It was Marco who replied this time. “What a wonderful question. Yes, there is a spark inside each of us that comes from Life itself. Some humans call this God. That spark is connected to us like a battery. It ignites our breathing when we’re born. Then, when we are complete with life in a body, the spark lifts us out, back into the big love that holds us all.” p.27

Not So Little Cora is a book about love, and even though many define God as love, others do not.

Some who are responding to the word God and wondering if I will change it, are in fact honoring the potency of the story and describing for them what is in the way at a deeper level for them to be able to understand.

Cora always wants to know, what is the most loving thing to do? I’ve wrestled with this over the past couple of weeks as I’ve assimilated the feedback and asked my sacred allies in love what would be best.

If I take out the word God, I am not eliminating God/the All of Life nor the presence of Love from the book. That’s the wrapper, the container for the whole story.

One of the purposes of Not So Little Cora is to assist in helping grow an understanding of what Love is and can be, in order to inspire a more loving world.

So……

I am taking out the word God from the book and replacing with other words or terms like love or the All of life.  I don’t want there to be stumbling blocks to the important messaging in Not So Little Cora.

An edited version will be coming soon. It’s an easy change. If you’d don’t mind having the term ‘God’ in the book, the original is still available online on Amazon.

I’ll let you know when the new version is ready

Thank you for being on this journey with me. And for standing in your own soulful knowing, your uniqueness and love that I hope to champion through Not So Little Cora.

I’d love to hear from you.

It’s been a couple months and many changes since we last connected. Much has transpired in our lives and we have some wonderful news to share-

First – Susan’s book Not So Little Cora is now officially published!!!!

It’s available in paperback and e-book on Amazon and Barnes and Noble in the United States, Canada and Mexico as well as on Amazon in other countries around the world.

If you’d like to buy a copy or leave a review- here are the links:

US- Paperback and E-book

CAN- Paperback

MX- E-book

For me, Susan, it took a great deal of courage, hard work, along with support from many others to turn Not So Little Cora into a reality. I’ve never shied away from hard work, but I’d often allowed the naysayer voice in my head to be louder than the voice in my heart. I’m heartened by the outreach Not So Little Cora is beginning to have.

Here are some pictures from the book launch in Mexico on Valentine’s day.

More than 50 friends gathered in our home to celebrate.

And a picture from Susan’s first school visit in Nova Scotia.

And Other News…

We moved to Nova Scotia, Canada in March.
Our time living in Mexico has come to a close and the next chapter of our lives called us here. Mexico has a forever place in our hearts, and we’ll return there as visitors from a new home base. We took the month of March to rest and reinvigorate. Moving is no small task as you know. ?

Our doors are open and sessions times available. Thanks for your support as we cared for ourselves.

Help Bring Not So Little Cora to the World

Help Bring Not So Little Cora to the World

 

There is something in each of us that is bursting at the seams.

It can’t wait to come out and play in the world.

As some of you know, I was inspired, some would say ‘called’, to write Not So Little Cora, a children’s book for adults too. The journey of writing this is something that I think we all can relate to. I had to face into and make peace with all the dark jackals that wanted to talk me out of manifesting what my heart was calling me to create.

This is a time in the world when each of us is being called to live joyously and wildly. We are all are being inspired to arise. In creating this book, I wanted to give children and adults the remembrance of what it’s like to live unfettered through love connected to the ALL of Life.

As Cora’s friend Marco says,

“Love is bigger than Big and knows just what to do.”

What if that playful, curious, wonder-filled child in each of us had a place at the table of our lives?  I want more of that inside me.

A friend who read Not So Little Cora wrote,

“I’m sure kids will love it, but I’ll be very excited to give more than a few copies to adults too!! Not So Little Cora taught me so much. I’ll be reading it more than once. Cora awoke the kid inside me that I had to protect for so long. But now, I’m inspired to bring that inner kid out again and see life from a higher and more loving perspective!” C.P. San Miguel de Allende, Mexico.

I’m writing to you because you are each part of my spiritual family, my family of love.

Today I’ve launched an IndieGogo fundraiser to help with publishing, illustrations, website, Spanish translation and marketing.

Will you help bring Not So Little Cora into the world? I’d love your help in championing the cause of creativity, innocence and love that Cora embodies.
