The Heart of the Matter (Summer ’22)

My column in The Owl Magazine’s Summer Issue features four amazing children who share timeless, insightful wisdom. They offer glimmers of hope for the future. One day, they will be adults and they have already seamlessly grasped, despite their young ages, how to be kindhearted and the need to speak with love (from the heart). One boy models what an intuitive, empathetic and compassionate response looks like. Another innocent boy shares what needs to be done with guns to keep kids and teachers safe.

These children value what a lot of adults seemingly have forgotten. Let us humble ourselves enough to recognize sometimes our children are our teachers. We have a lot to learn from them!

About the Author

Reverend Mary Ellen is a minister, author, teacher, and activist from Cleveland, Ohio. In the year 2000, she took a leap of faith when she responded to her heart’s sacred calling and left behind a secure job with a steady income. She became self-employed at a wellness center as a full-time healing arts practitioner, and she has committed her life to be of service, not only with what breaks her heart but also what fills her heart with joy.

Her first children’s pre-chapter book, The Day the Goose Squabble Stopped, is meant to invoke laughter and deliver a timely message. She considers her book the first one in a series of goose stories. Rev. Mary Ellen can be contacted through her website www.thelovingway.me. Her books can be purchased through Amazon, Barnes and Noble, or direct through Sacred Stories Publishing. Ebooks are available on Amazon, Apple Books and Kobo. An audiobook is available on iTunes, Audible.com, and Amazon.

 

I have worked with Mary Ellen Lucas in many capacities for 15 years or more. Her spiritual direction and mentoring are wise, deep, compassionate and loving. Her astrological work is focused, accurate, practical and spiritual and always helpful; her classes and my sessions with her are high points of my year. Her Reiki and energy work have been very effective in alleviating both physical and emotional pain for me. If I could, I'd give ongoing sessions with Mary Ellen to ALL the people I care about.Neal S.
