Finding our way to The Way one situation at a time. I don't know how great it will be, but I expect it will be interesting, and I look forward to it going on past all reason because wonder is just that way. Are you coming or not?

We do what is called for in each situation as it arises,And let that be thatUntil the next situation arises.Throughout the time left for living.And that is all there is to it.Why make it any more difficult than that? Sitting quietly between situations is an excellent way to spend the time.

The newest book is up on the Kindle Store. #2 and #3 are written and need only to be proofed and uploaded. What a trip this has been! Oh, the price is a quite affordable $1.50. Why should the truth be expensive? This makes number 11 for my books on Kindle. I never guessed IContinue reading “February 25, 2026”

Knowing what is called for in a situation and doing what needs to be done about it, when, where, and how it needs to be done is done trusting ourselves to our intuition and allowing, in the words of the Tao Te Ching, “the outcome to be the outcome.” This is the crux of theContinue reading “February 24, 2026”

Is it real or is it AI? The line is becoming increasingly impossible to recognize, making disclosure significantly important in those situations where it matters, and how can we be sure where that is? Perhaps we should simply assume that nothing is real/actual/true/for certain and take it for granted that the House of Mirrors isContinue reading “February 23 B, 2026”

What is called for here, now? Being right about that and doing it where and how it needs to be done is all there is to it, moment by moment. When we get that down, we have it made.

I don’t put much stock in what someone else says, so I don’t expect anyone to put much stock in what I say. What we have to say is more help to us than to someone else, I think, in that it reflects us to ourselves, like looking into a mirror, so that we knowContinue reading “February 22, 2026”

I’ve been hobbled by a complete lack of sophistication all my life–a spinoff of the Puer Aeternus syndrome of never growing up and always being surprised that life turns out to be this way. (Of course, I don’t see how any of us could have ever seen THIS present state of affairs coming.) And needingContinue reading “February 21, 2026”

What do you have to say that needs to be said? Write it out. Saying what needs to be said will open the door to what else needs to be said, and that will open you to all that needs to be said all of the time. Say it by writing it out.

Jesus did not worry about believing anything in order to get to heaven when he died. His only interest was to do what was called for in each situation as it arose, where and how it was called for. With Jesus, it came down to doing the right thing, in the right way, in theContinue reading “February 19, 2026”

169. From 200 Zen Thoughts #3 on my WordPress Blog Curiosity and no ulterior motives are the two character requirements for the exploration of spiritual reality. We aren’t in it for anything we can get out of it. We are simply wondering what’s what and what’s called for and what might happen in an if,Continue reading “February 19, 2026”

I don’t want you–any of you, all of you–to lose heart. I want you to believe in you. To not give up on you. You are precious beyond words. When we run out of words and there are no words for what we have to say–as in the experience of this photograph, for example, orContinue reading “February 18, 2026”

We need more help than we get. We can nod in agreement and then go back to doing the best we can. Here’s to you! Good luck with what you’re facing today! And tomorrow! Etc. A moment of silence for us all! And may we find there solace and direction, comfort and peace with theContinue reading “February 17, 2026”
