the pace of which
Our paths are not the same. Two completely different worlds, shaped in different ways, under completely different circumstances. That is not good or bad, better or worse, easier or harder, it just is. We live the lives we have, as it was of our own choosing. After a year you could be much farther along…

the peaceful journey
The ebb and flow of lifeYou crash against the shore, you get carried away in peaceSuch is lifeSuch is the wayBeyond lies the stillness we all seekJust close enough to be able to touch it brieflyThe last glowing atom from a magnificent sunsetInfinite warmth on your delicate handYou have found your Self, if but for…

the path
Paths are meant to be taken. The Path you were meant to take, the one that was defined for you, by you, is always there. You have a free will and are free to choose that path, or any one of an infinite number of paths available to you. You have done this your whole…

it is for you
Recently, I read a bit of a rant on Facebook from someone who seemingly is a leader in the “spiritual community.” Maybe they are, maybe they aren’t, I don’t follow them or know who they are. It had a lot of engagement. Essentially the sentiment was there are far too many people sharing spiritual points…

the most significant moments of our lives
One of my favorite films is “Field of Dreams”. The W.P. Kinsella book the film is based off of, “Shoeless Joe”, is a good read. I re-visited it again recently. It is, however, one of the instances where the film surpasses the book. The film is magical and there are a couple key moments where…

the way
“The Way is The Way is The Way” Think for a moment about all the steps you have taken on your spiritual journey. I would imagine for most of you there have been many “ways.” For some, you may be on your first “way.” For me, it was as an adult and the Catholic Church.…

by invitation only
What is it you are choosing to invite into your life? Not by of our own ultimate choosing, but of our continued active choice we continue to see a world split into two; the world we have always known (what was given to us by God) and the world we have always seen (what we…

what you deserve
Have you ever thought to yourself: “I deserved that.” I am sure you have. I know I have. You made a misstep, and fell upon some misfortune. You exercised poor judgment and something bad happened. You mistreated someone and they mistreated you back. You made a mistake and now you are paying the price. Perhaps…

from the ashes?
Where are you right now? Your Self will meet your self there. So much that surrounds you leads you to believe you are not enough. Your career, your health, your relationships, your financial situation, your knowledge. None of that is true, of course. You are one with the Source, by definition you are all and…

partial surrender
One of the ego’s tricks and why many struggle on the path to peace is they convince themselves they can “surrender” the challenging parts of their lives to “God” or the “Source”, whatever makes them feel comfortable, and continue to control what they believe is going well. This is a delusion. There is no such…
