I have no idea where this image was taken. If you have been there before, I would appreciate your telling me where I was. I received notice today that my driver’s license can be renewed for four years through the mail. I will grab that opportunity, thinking this will be the last one. I stillContinue reading “August 11, 2026”

The thing that matters most to me today is synchronicity. Coincidence that matters. That is built into the framework of existence, without which nothing would be. Which is to suggest that nothing happens for a reason and the old Taoists were right 5,000 years BCE in saying all of this is the result of “circumstancesContinue reading “August 10, 2026”

Living to see what catches my eye and calls my name is my primary motivation. I discover who I am by way of all that attracts me and holds my interest. “What will it be today?” I wonder, getting out of bed.

Our experience with life is the source of our beliefs about God. Early humans explained lightening and earth quakes as having their origin with an angry God and sought to appease that God with sacrifices and worship and things took off from there to the Roman Catholic Church and the Westminster Confession of Faith, andContinue reading “August 09, 2026”

I crawled to the lip of the canyon to take this photograph, amid the laughter of other photographers gathered about. I got the picture and they got to laugh. Worked out well, I say. A little something for everyone. We have to know what our limits are and honor them by living within them. ThisContinue reading “August 08, 2026”

We live, in part, to offset the impact of our life upon us to this point, at every point along the way. There is a sense in which we never get over having lived up to this point. We carry our past with us all the way. And we do not know who we mightContinue reading “August 07, 2026”

When it’s too much for you, call time out. Acknowledge the overwhelming nature of events and circumstances. Sit quietly, or go for a walk, or take a shower… Whatever form timeout needs to take, and just allow the moment to be as it is, and turn things over to Psyche Tao Intuition (I don’t sayContinue reading “August 06, 2026”

Psyche, Tao, Intuition have always been and always will be. Settling in with them for the long haul is all it takes to have what it takes to do what needs to be done. That’s what emptiness, stillness, silence (One thing, not three) is for. We meet up with Psyche, Tao, Intuition in emptiness, stillness,Continue reading “August 05, 2026”

Donald Trump wants to transform history, and the Republican Party is all for it. This is crazy. And wrong. It’s psychotic, as in losing touch with reality. And, in this case, refusing to allow reality to be what it is by insisting that it is as they want it to be. When the President ofContinue reading “August 04, 2026”

My new web site, Tao-Psyche-Intuition.com is open for business and is home to the best I have to offer, representing the essence of who I am. I hope you feel at home there.

I had a piece of lemon ice box pie and a cup of coffee Saturday at our weekly family lunch out with the daughters and granddaughters. The pie and the coffee is what I had for lunch. My new Saturday lunch. I intend for it to be a regular thing. It is my way outContinue reading “August 03, 2026”

It’s all up to us, what we do with it. What we do. I’m all for doing what is called for. The trick is knowing what that is. We know when we are imposing ourselves upon the situation, and when we are cooperating with the situation, merging with the situation, being one with the situation,Continue reading “August 02, 2026”
