AUTHORS

AUTHORS      There are hundreds of excellent spiritual authors who have prepared me for this blog over the years, but I was unaware of it until much later. It made me and my blog universal,  meaning an all-embracing faith in Life whose Ultimate Source is always alive and can be awakened in anyone.
