About the Book

Safe or Squandered was created from the creative writing journals I’ve kept for years. When I was 5 years old, I distinctly remember telling my dad “Someday I’m going to write a book.” That notion or feeling has always stayed with me. After years of writing, healing and helping others, I’ve finally taken the time to assemble this small book of musings from a heart revived. A philosophy of love and understanding from one wounded warrior to another. Throughout the years it was my privilege to share some of the writings contained in this book with friends, random strangers and few family members. Everyone has expressed positive reviews. It’s my respectful intention that you enjoy them too.


About the Author

Hello! My life journey began in a small Arizona town. It was 1963 twenty-two days after the US President JFK was assassinated. The Geminids meteor shower was peaking; the elevation was 3333 feet where the crossroads of Highways 66 and 93 meet. These are the facts surrounding my birth into this gorgeous existence. Looking back on my life I realize I’ve always been at the crossroads. Always wondering which direction do I take now? Today, I cried and felt frustrated with life. In the past, I used to slam doors, throw things and spout words in anger. Behaving badly without regard was an acquired behavior. Now, after years of following a personal curiosity to learn and feel safe in life, I have contemplated and created Metta verses of healing gratitude. Verses I say morning, day and night to heal YOU and all sentient beings myself included.
