Read MoreThoughts on Spirituality: Our Magnificent Journey
Opening the Heart Perhaps the simplest way to look at life is a journey, or a trip. Literally, that’s what it is. We’re traveling on the planet Earth through space at a rate of 67,000 miles per hour as it orbits the sun. Multiply that distance times 24 hours, then times 365 days, and that equates to 587,463,120 miles (945,430,247…
Read MoreThoughts on God: Reconciling the 'S%&t'
Commenting on my post, Thoughts on God: When ‘S%&t’ Happens (12/27/2006), NJ poses the following question: I just read “Thoughts on God: When ‘S%&t’ Happens,” and it struck deep. I’d like to ask you, how do you reconcile “I am responsible for everything in my life.” (I create/attract the good stuff and the S%&t.) and “God is responsible for everything…

Read MoreThoughts on Race and Humanity, Part VI
‘Black People Can’t Be Racists’, and Other Myths In roughly two and a quarter centuries the United States of America has experienced a dramatic shift in its racial attitudes. Founded on the principle that all men are created equal, but steeped in the 18th Century’s practical reality of slavery, race relations in America have been likened to a “black eye”…

[I started this essay a few days ago, then set it aside, as it does deep, perhaps deeper than I was ready to go. On the other hand, if I limit the depths of myself that I’m willing to share, then I limit the heights to which I can soar. Connect always to the spirit behind these words.] While I…

I received an email from a friend of mine in Wisconsin to whom I sent a copy of Mark Sircus’ book, Transdermal Magnesium Therapy (396ppg, Phaelos Books, $18.95), and a small sample of liquid magnesium chloride.

Read MoreThoughts on Creativity
Unfolding Our Story: Unwrapping the Gift When writing, it is common practice for me to begin the journey without even knowing what will be written. I have written many essays, poems, and several books using this practice. On occasion I will have a hint or clue as to the ideas that wish to be expressed, but invariably, other thoughts will…
Read MoreThoughts on Life and Love
Who/What We are I don’t know about you, but to me, the most important achievement that I can make during my life experience, is to find out who, or what I am, and perhaps, where I came from. I say “perhaps” on the last point because understanding the other two can make “specifics” about the last one a moot point,…
Read MoreThoughts on Reality Creation: Beyond Santayana’s Axiom
On the ‘Birthing’ of New Futures There is an axiom that has been repeated many times over the years, which states: “He who does not know the past is doomed to repeat it.” Written by Spanish-American philosopher, Jorge Agustín Nicolás de Santayana (1863-1952), the phrase is often pounded home by activists who are in angry opposition to the status quo.…

Have you ever noticed the subtle or sometimes blatant suggestion that if anything “goes wrong” in our life, then it’s an indication that we haven’t “embraced God enough?” We haven’t praised Him enough, or we haven’t accepted His only begotten son as our Lord and Savior. Or perhaps we…
