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

The first step is to realize that pain is a beacon which should not…

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…

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,…

A Beautiful Message

They’re Singing Your Song From a story told by Alan Cohen in his book: Wisdom Of The Heart When a woman in a certain African tribe knows she is pregnant, she goes out into the wilderness with a few friends and together they pray and meditate until they hear the song of the child. They…

Hi all.  There are a lot of books out right now on the Law of Attraction – being able to manifest or attract to yourself what you intend for your life.  Many of you may have heard of the DVD or the book “The Secret.”  If you still had questions after reading this book (I…
