The Life of Trees

Those who know me are aware that I have been torn between two paths in my life – two great passions, and thus far I have done both. Now as one appears it may be ending and uncertainty is the dominant force of the day…sitting on my deck, coffee in hand and looking at the…

A New Life

It is very interesting how different fields of thought talk about losing the ego and not identifying with anything (but rather everything) but then in the same stroke call this “enlightenment”.  This has been a conundrum for spiritual seekers (and here in lies the problem…”seekers”) for a long time.  I think we need to need…

Moving Towards Our Personal Legend

In a few of the last posts I have discussed our personal legend, our vision for our life, or seeing our personal evolution unfold. By looking at this we saw some things which often keep people from living their vision, such as “having a dream of something is as powerful as actually  living the vision,”…

Self Sabatoge, Conflict, Problems, Unrest and the Evolution of the Self

It took some time for me to figure out how exactly I wanted to approach this issue. A book could be written on this topic, but for now I will try to paint a portrait of this idea using a few words. I struggle with releasing this, because like a detailed scene, trying to describe…

Soul, or No Soul?

So I have gotten side tracked a little bit from the “Healing” posts, and I will post the last article in that series soon, but something else I have been writing on deserves attention.  I have been engaged in a discussion on whether there is a soul, or no soul.  I have taken the side…

Our Path and Our Path to Healing -1

We come into this world with a path which we have laid out for ourselves. This includes major things we want to accomplish or overcome, and this is done in our spirit from before we enter this world. In my book (hurry up publishers!) I called it life mapping and I called it that because…

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…

Continued….

Here are a few additional thoughts based on the previous post… We so often only see what we are conditioned to see, and don’t open ourselves up to the possibilities which abound around us. Right now, in university quantum physics laboratories you see objects that exist simultaneously in two different places at once. Now one…

What Are You Missing?

The child whispered, ‘God, speak to me’ And a meadow lark sang. The child did not hear. So the child yelled, ‘God, speak to me!’ And the thunder rolled across the sky But the child did not listen. The child looked around and said, ‘God let me see you’ and a star shone brightly But…
