Today I made time, one hour in fact, to go for a walk, celebrate spring and surrender myself into the energy that is re-growth. You see nothing in the universe is new. There has not been something new in the universe for billions of years. All there has been is transformation. Spring is one form…
What does it take in order for my mind to be completely quiet and still? When did it last happen? How often does it happen? Do I decide or does it just happen. These are fundamental and important questions we each must answer in order to come to clarity around our choices in life. Our…
We are a collective. It is interesting because often we are told or sold that we are individual. I would suggest we are part of a collective consciousness and a better word would be an individuation of the consciousness rather than an individual. Why is this distinction important?

The fact we are here. The fact we live. The fact we see, hear, touch, smell and taste. The fact we have languages. What about these things would you not name a miracle? What about your life is mundane? Would it be that the heart within your chest started to beat after only a few…

How quick we can be to judge what we know almost nothing about. I can remember many years ago when people would ask me about something…
When you look at the photo what do you see? Is it a scene of decay wherein the colors are caused by the absence of life giving sap or do you see nature in a spectacular display of its cycle? Neither perspective is more correct than the other. Neither perspective is “better than the other”.…
The typewriter is the instrument through which fantastic story telling can emerge. The typewriter fulfills its role because it does what it needs to do. The typewriter knows how to pick up ink from a ribbon and transfer it onto paper. It does it repeatedly and it does it well. The same is true for…
Context is everything. A few small drops of water can mean the difference between rescue and disaster. Let’s say we are out hiking and we drop our water bottle. It is a hot summers day and we are repelling down a cliff face when we come upon a plant that still has about a half…
