‘Author Patti Clark is a cross between Elizabeth Gilbert and Julia Cameron.’
– Joanne McCall
Why I made this blog –
Do I want fame? Well maybe a little, but mostly, to be honest, this is all a little embarrassing. In my mind I think – who am I to be writing a blog, what do I have to say?
But then on the heels of that, I hear Marianne Williamson:
“Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and famous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that people won’t feel insecure around you.”
Do I want attention for my work? Well, yes I do. I want women to think about how they live their lives, to look deeper and live more consciously. I want to share the 7 Tools for Transformation – I want women to know that they have the power to create the life that they love. I want women to know that their minds are the most beautiful and powerful things on Earth.
I want to talk about Intention, Attention and Memory (I AM) – making the most of each and every day on this planet. I want to motivate women to follow their bliss.
I want women to know that it’s safe to trust their inspired thoughts. I want to communicate that all people can access their intuition – it just takes time to learn to listen to it and trust it. I want to encourage women to live with an attitude of gratitude and abundance.
I want people to know that the old paradigm is changing and that I am one of the people who is in the process of changing it – I’m doing this by paying attention everyday, by practicing my own 7 Tools of Transformation, and by being willing to move forward a little bit everyday.
So why did I create this blog? I guess to bring attention to this work, my work, and to maybe make a difference…

Well, here I was, going along blissfully in my life until my boss announced that she wanted my life because I am so happy and my life is simple (compared to hers). She said a few more similar thoughts to me on a few successive days that I then began to feel badly and took it all so personally. I gave myself a scathing case of shingles — on my face, no less, because I let her get to me. When I finally realized, and accepted, that it was my behavior (being blissfully happy in her presence) which led to her comments, I was able to see that she would have said the same thing to anyone who exhibited my behaviors. From this experience I have learned to take nothing personally, from anyone, and have put a post it in my bathroom cabinet stating: Nothing is personal, because I need reminders that it’s okay to be happy when others are not. I am happy again, even at work when my boss is around.
We have much to learn from each other and I thank you, Patti, for putting your energy into this blog.

But I find the more we stick to it the easier it gets. So, thanks for stopping by my blog and liking one of my posts, which brought me to yours – to find we are on the same page.

I really like your mission statement. I too want to share myself so that others might know what works and what doesn’t. I share my failings as well as my successes, and I make no apologies for my faith in Jesus Christ in the process. Some of my ruminations are on creativity, some are on recovery, and some are on spirituality. Don’t expect to find religious dogma here. Instead, watch for conversations about what it’s like to be human, what it means to be a Christian in recovery, to be a Christian in relationship with Christ, and what it means to be creative. We are all creative, and we get our inspiration from the Great Creator. We can lead better lives by improving our conscious contact with God.

I would love to make a long narration of how I re-claimed myself for it is the only way I can prove that there’s a possibility of hope and happiness regardless of the trials we have to overcome. I had been sexually assaulted at a very young age until I became a mother when I was fourteen. Most of my years were spent not knowing what to do but I did earned a degree of which I don’t even know if I like. Because the society has persecuted and judge me that my parents had planned how I should live my life. I had dysfunctional sexual relationship, body dysmorphia, been under a severe identity crisis that drowned me into alcoholism and smoking, and a lot more. Yet somehow here I am writing my story not to commemorate my past but to prove that I now happily embrace my last piece of dignity and is living to give back what the world has taught me. I am just a regular person behind this keyboard but in every place I go with every people I met, I somehow make them smile or help them in any way I can. Reclaiming myself must be the longest adventure I’d ever had and probably the hardest but it’s all worth the effort. A friend once told me- a fallen angel who learns how to fix his wings can soar above the rest.

I would like to add that the polarity of the feminism right side of the mind and the masculism of the left side create the conflict where the woman has the full power to embrace and nurture their true power as goddesses who procreate our species. We have lost site of their purpose for their ability to accept their ancient ways of taking care of their loved ones. Their feminism power to accept their true nature of knowing that the creator could be female. Before birth at conception we were both female and male until the many sexually reproducing species, humans have special gonosomes (sex chromosomes, in contrast to autosomes). These are XX in females and XY in males. Our sezx is determined at this point. Then when delivery starts life in a violent way that they have to squeeze through tight tunnel then slapped to breath already we start the male violent way of birth. Where woman now have nonviolent water birthing which is a spectacular way for a baby to enter the male dominated world of the womans right side of the mind. I truly believe we are having a higher consciousness level of relating to the universe and realize that woman could be empowered to change the world from the old paradigm shift to the new age of higher consciousness in the world. So Patty don’t hold back what you truly mean where woman can also be warriors and be empowered with the same energy as men and we polarize our selves with unconditional love. Good luck with your new book I am impressed with your knowledge of the ancient ways of the past. You have tapped into the crux of all of our spiritual abilities.

Yours is a fascinating and interesting book. The idea of healing and moving on using the creative process is one that I am sure will help many people. I am focusing on writing about creativity and aging. Do you have any thoughts on that?

Absolutely! So many thoughts on that subject. I would love to have a longer conversation about that. So many women in my workshops think they are ‘too old’ to start being creative! NO! There is no age limit, and as a matter of fact, creativity is vital in keeping the brain and spirit young and vibrant!

Writers write because they cannot not write. It is their calling. Harlan Ellison published a work in March 1967 called “I Have No Mouth, and I Must Scream”. I think this is how many bloggers feel. Their blog becomes their mouth through which they scream at the world. So blog on. The world needs people to care enough to scream at it.

So let me just say “Thank You” for bringing me over to your site. It’s funny I was just praying about this the other morning laying in bed not wanting to keep up and not sure why I needed to. Asking myself who am I to write although I have been doing it most of my life but not feeling I had anything anyone would want to hear and feeling I was not good enough. So I say again thank you!
