01 What are we doing with our life? Who are we becoming through the process/experience of being alive? How mindfully do we live? How conscious are we of living? Of being alive to the process/experience of being alive? What makes one day different from another? What do we mean/intend by the life we are living?Continue reading “June 10, 2021”

01 We all are looking for what works. The tragedy is that we all know what works, and it isn’t splashy enough for us. We want something else to work, and spend our lives trying to make something work that isn’t going to work. And we know it, but maybe if we try harder… AndContinue reading “June 07, 2021”

01 It is a psychological saw that we need to stand out and fit in, and between those polarities lie all of our problems. Fitting in is being like those we aspire to be like (Or are afraid to not be like). Standing out is expressing our natural self in the way we go aboutContinue reading “June 03, 2021”

01 If you are waiting for things to make sense, you are standing in the wrong line. There isn’t a line. Things do not make sense. Coming to terms with that positions you well to make it the rest of the way. Now, you only need to square yourself up with doing what needs toContinue reading “June 02, 2021”

01 There is a price to be paid for doing it– and for doing it the way we do it. Whatever “it” is. Democracy carries a price tag. “Freedom isn’t free,” as the popular catch phrase goes, though the people saying it rarely apply it to themselves. It applies to wearing masks during pandemics asContinue reading “June 01, 2021”

01 It all starts with and flows from our being in balance and harmony with our life, meaning our situation in life, our circumstances, our context, our here and now. Being in balance and harmony with here and now, moment by moment, in each situation as it arises, is the most important thing. That positionsContinue reading “May 28, 2021”

01 Balance and harmony are the best we can do. Spirit, energy, vitality are traveling companions with balance and harmony. Together, they form the foundation of life and being. The adamantine rock of human existence. The Five Friends are the Hope of The World. Why do we put all the emphasis, effort, focus, time andContinue reading “May 14, 2021”

01 If we had someone to listen to us, it would be easier for us to hear what we have to say. We aren’t taught how to listen to ourselves, and we grow up strangers with “the other” Carl Jung was talking about when he said, “There is, in each of us, another whom weContinue reading “May 13, 2021”

01 We all crave the freedom to do and to be with no clear notion regarding doing what, being what. It is as though we are being pushed to do something, to be somehow, without knowing what or how. What to do? How to be? The possibilities are endless. Where do we begin? Not this!Continue reading “May 06, 2021”

01 The most important thing is what needs to be done moment-by-moment in each situation as it arises. Take care of the moment! The moment matters most! Doing right by our moments adds up to doing right by our life. Nobody can do better than that. What did you miss, thinking about something else, inContinue reading “April 24, 2021”

01 Our orientation has to flow out of, and be in sync with, the wholeness of our being in space and time. What is wholly us about us? Hold that thought. The phrase “raised from the dead” has to be understood metaphorically, symbolically, spiritually, psychologically– not actually, physically, literally. We can be “raised from theContinue reading “April 14, 2921”

01 What does orthodoxy fear from heresy? Orthodoxy’s insane response to heresy– excommunication, denunciation, torture, execution via burning at the stake and attacks in the Colosseum by lions and wild dogs, hanging and drowning– exposes fault lines destabilizing the foundations of orthodoxy. What does truth have to fear from the exploration of truth? Orthodoxy onContinue reading “April 11, 2021”
