Recently, I read a news article which stated something like this: “Scientists have shown that, contrary to popular, modern philosophy, there not only “is” a self, but it is measurable.†I did a short search for the article but was not successful in locating it. The reason I bring it up, today, is because I… Continue reading Small “s†self is Ego
As I was working, this week, gathering everything I needed for our taxes I found an old book hiding in an unexpected place. It was a forty-two year old little book by Helen Steiner Rice. I am not sure where it came from but I think I bought it as part of a collection of books from an… Continue reading Love, The Greatest Mystery
Buckminster Fuller has been touted as one of the greatest minds of the twentieth century. I will not go into depth about this man, as the internet is filled with information on him, but I will state that he is someone who greatly intrigues me. He had an amazing mind and his observations of everything spiritual… Continue reading Bucky’s Approximation of TRUTH
Last night at Spiritual Cinema we watched the beautiful movie, I Am by Tom Shadyac. There were a couple of quotes, which inspired me, in the movie but I had not taken any notes, so I went to the director’s website to search for them. Instead of finding the exact ideas I was seeking I… Continue reading I Wish For You …
Life is a journey, filled with myriad destinations: Â some near, some far, some purposeful, others surprising. The journey itself is a paradox: Nothing is as it seems. The senses betray us, though not on purpose. The mind misleads, though without any malice or intention. Many advise us not to think; but being alive requires an… Continue reading Life is a Journey, Not an Obstacle

The brain, the source of our human mind, will recognize that something, unnamed, is missing and will seek… Continue reading Life’s Greatest Mystery
The path to enlightenment is an interesting journey. Most of us begin this quest driven by some vague, inner emptiness. Although many people search, everywhere their intellect guides them, most stop before ever reaching any level of spiritual satisfaction. Assuming this premise is true, why would this spiritual prize be so elusive? The simple truth… Continue reading The Path to Enlightenment is not an Easy One
Sunday, when I unloaded my home and garden purchases, I noticed that I had taken home two more bags of mulch than I had purchased. I am not certain how the discrepancy occurred but it is the type of event that I always used as a teachable moment when I had children at home. Yesterday… Continue reading You Can Never Out-Give the Universe
I love the way life is so serendipitous. I wrote yesterday’s piece about needing some sort of Truth, something we absolutely KNOW to cling to when life appears oppressive. This morning I was getting close to the end of The Legend of Bagger Vance by Steven Pressfield and I read the following: “Forget all else,… Continue reading Serendiptous Blessing
Why do we resist life as it is? Why is it that campaigns which promise to help us be, do, or have more, carry such great appeal? What if we could just thoroughly investigate who we are and examine the unique set of gifts and talents we bring to the mix, instead of hoping to… Continue reading Gifts from Family
