Knowing we we are and what we are about is a matter of looking, listening, seeing, hearing, tuning in to what catches our eye, becomes a recurring theme throughout our life. Being who we are and doing what we are about is taking up the adventure of being alive and seeing where it goes. OurContinue reading “September 24, 2026”

The return to silence is the key to finding what is missing from our life. The right way, the right path, things our body knows that we keep getting confused with what we want, with how we want things to be, with how we wish things were. And THIS isn’t it! Gene Gendlin with “Focusing,”Continue reading “September 23, 2026”

Listening to what our body is saying is our guide along the way. With me, it started with looking out the window. I took up the practice in the 5th Grade, and it is still with me. I take the window with me wherever I go, and know how to drop into the silence anywhere,Continue reading “September 22, 2026”

Greed, Hatred, Fear, Anger are not helpful characteristics in those holding public office, but it happens often enough to make psychological testing a prerequisite for all those running for office. The higher the office, the more essential the testing. I wish we could enforce it retroactively. Don’t you?

We do not have to think our way through our life. Our life is way beyond anything we can think into being. Thinking is for what we need at the grocery store and what we are going to give someone for Christmas, and for what today’s date is if someone asks us. The important thingsContinue reading “September 20, 2026”

Meeting the day as the day needs to be met, doing there what needs to be done the way it needs to be done, day after day is all that can be asked of us any day.What makes that difficult? What keeps that from happening? Our place is to sit with that and allow itContinue reading “September 19, 2026”

Rather than looking for our life, we might simply wait for our life to find us by being aware of our dreams and the things that catch our eye, draw our attention, attract our interest, day to day, and look closer, make inquiries, investigate the possibilities, and see where it goes. We cannot think ourContinue reading “September 18, 2026”

Looking out the window without a care in the world is the key to reclusive living within the hubbub of the modern world. We don’t need a hut in the woods or a cave in a remote mountainside. Just a window and a recliner. The doorway of perception, and a soulful perspective on life andContinue reading “September 17, 2026”

We can make things happen without knowing or caring what needs to happen, guided only by what we want to happen. The world we live in is pretty much the result of what someone wanted to happen in response to what someone else wanted to happen. What does wanting know? Or better, perhaps, why don’tContinue reading “September 16, 2026”

Sit quietly within emptiness, stillness, silence, waiting, listening, for the questions that need to be asked, for the things that need to be said, writing them down as they come for as long as the exercise is leading you along the way. When it begins to wind down, set it aside until the time toContinue reading “September 15, 2026”

Living from our own personal authority grounds us with ourselves and in our ability to trust ourselves to ourself. It makes us responsible for knowing what we know and living out of our sense of what is good for us and what is not, what is right for us and what is not. Who knowsContinue reading “September 14, 2026”

The God of theology consists of nothing other than words about God. We have created the God we talk about (and pray to) by talking about (and praying to) God. The God of theology is a product of projection. Whatever we say about God is a reflection of our interpretation, understanding, belief of/about God. WhenContinue reading “September 13, 2026 – B”
