Recharging, Reconnecting and Rebalancing – Finding Perspective

Some days certain things seem clearer, and while going through our lives at other times these same things can seem very elusive. You may have noticed I have not published anything lately on the topics I commonly write on for this site.  Today (which was actually 2 days ago now) was my day to fully…

Which Path to Take???

It is strange how we seem to come across the things that we need to hear or see right when we need it. I can’t say that I believe in coincidences, but rather believe certain events coincide with one another when we need them. It is as if a parallel path which was running along…

Understanding our Personal Conflict Dyanamic

This is a continuation of the previous posts. IN order to really understand how we are affecting others, and ultimately what our role is in the conflicts that occur around us, we need to be aware of our inner conflicts. I will say that this is partially to get my own thoughts out on this,…

An Intermittent Note on Conflict

The follow is part of a online conversation held in a spirituality group. It adds a bit more to the previous post. It was part of a discussion, so I may refer to things that seem a bit out of place, but I believe it still portrays the ideas which are relevant. Here it is……

The Underlying Element of Conflict – Why we do it

What is the fundamental source of conflict? Why does it occur? Why can it be so hard to move beyond it? Even with a desire to get it out of our life, it can be hard, unless we understand why it occurs. And the reason it occurs has nothing to do with conflict per se…

The Accident

What started as a normal day, led me down a path in which normal will never be quite normal again. The blood still soaks my jacket, and my shirt remains damp from the onslaught of tears. Removing it, cleaning up, just seems like a feeble attempt to wipe away the impact of this day, this…

The Power of Promises-Constructive and Negative

I was struck the other day, by something seemingly so simple, and yet it has a huge impact on how we feel about ourselves.  This thing that I believe has a large impact on us, is our commitment to keep our word, not only to others, but too our self. We must keep the promises…

Love, Soulmates and Relationships

Here is a little continuation to the Glimpse at Love and Soulmates post. A few comments and questions have arisen which I will touch on (thank you to those of you who sent emails or posted comments on the different places this article was posted) Here are a few things that have been raised -cultural…

Are Your Values Really What You Think They Are?

Often we think we know what our values and goals are, but many people really don’t. The following is about finding out what our values and goals really are, as often these values and goals conflict with each and cause us suffering. It is fairly long, but the process discussed is very powerful and can…

Just 5 More Minutes

The following is a little story I found.   It puts a few things in perspective. The author was unknown and the original source was unknown. Enjoy…. Just 5 More Minutes While at the park one day, a woman sat down next to a man on a bench near a playground. “That’s my son over there,”…

7 Laws of Spiritual Success

Couldn’t help but put this up.  From the book by Deepak Chopra.  Some sounds advice for how to live each day of the week (and then maybe eventually all of them all the time).  But let’s start with this. Monday: The Law of Giving Bring whoever you encounter a gift: a compliment or flower. Gratefully…

Pursue Your Dreams

The following is something I wrote about 4 years ago.  At the time I was writing it more for myself than for anyone else, but reading over it now it seems like some good advice and a good reminder that we should always do what we feel we should.  Looking back, this was right around…
