Living with integrity, sincerity and spontaneity, transcends the contriving, willful, pursuit of the acquisition of wealth and power, and opens the way to following the flow of life energy through circumstances and situations as they arise. In so doing, we create a path that can only be recognized as a path in hindsight by thoseContinue reading “March 27-A, 2023”

We help each other find what we need to do what needs to be done in each situation as it arises all our lives long. It isn’t about getting ahead or having it made. It is about having what it takes to do what needs to be done. The right attitude is one if theContinue reading “March 26-A, 2023”

A) This is the way things are, B) and this is what we can do about it, C) and that’s that. D) And THAT’S the way things are! The A-B-C-D’s of life/living/being alive. Coming to terms with them, making our peace with them, being okay, alright, fine with them is the work of being alive.Continue reading “March 25-B, 2023”

Luck is the ground of life and being. And, the old adage applies: “The more I practice, the luckier I get.” What is your practice? How often do you practice your practice? It is amazing what sitting still, being quiet and empty– and having no expectations and nothing stake in the outcome– can do forContinue reading “March 25-A, 2023”

I think we can’t live our life– the life that is uniquely ours to live– showcasing our original nature and innate virtues/specialties, while living like life is being lived around us. I think we have to draw a frame around ourselves, set ourselves apart, listen to our own body, heart, soul, self. Tune into ourselves,Continue reading “March 24-A, 2023”

What catches your eye? Sit with that, exploring the connection. What does that reveal to you about you? What has been your relationship with the things that catch your eye? Water does it for me. And cypress trees. Give me water and cypress trees and forget about me. I’ll be fine. Where are you fine?Continue reading “March 22-A, 2023”

The flow of energy through life was called “The Tao” in 500-and-earlier BCE, for lack of a better term. “Tao” is gender-neutral and free of the cumbersome baggage of theology, and cosmology, and astrology, and all of the other “logy’s” we have developed over time to control/master/explain/exploit the mystery at the heart of life andContinue reading “March 21-B, 2023”

We work to keep it going for the good of all concerned. The good of all is our social contract with one another. It is essential that we make it, and keep it–no matter what. No matter what we think of each other, we work to keep it going for the good of all concerned.Continue reading “March 20-A, 2023”

Go with the flow of energy guiding you through your life to life spilling over, pouring out as blessing and grace upon you and all those who come your way. Follow the flow of energy as it leads you where you need to be, trusting your sense of Yes and No from here to thereContinue reading “March 18-B, 2023”

The heroes in Jesus’ view were the prodigal son’s father, the good Samaritan, the sower who went out to sow, the gardener who said, “Let me tend the fig tree, and give it another year.” The people who shared a cup of water with the thirsty, a loaf of bread with the hungry, who visitedContinue reading “March 18-A, 2023”

Money is a tool for making/buying the tools we need to do what is ours to do in in serving/expressing our original nature and our innate virtues/specialties in doing what needs to be done in each situation as it rises. But who understands our mission in these terms? We use money to pass a goodContinue reading “March 17-A, 2023”
