Paradox is balance. Be open to dissenting views and opinions knowing that they do not have to change yours or invalidate yours. Each to their own. You have as much right to your beliefs and feelings as anyone else has to theirs.

I am often humbled by all that is beyond the obvious moment. Of course, what is beyond any obvious moment is anything and everything that we do not grasp or hold awareness of in any unfolding moment. Each moment is so rich with context, texture, lessons and experience. Each moment has such meaning and purpose.

The mystery of understanding seeks to engage us in a journey of living an examined life. A journey of seeking personal enlightenment. Do you find that there are aspects of your life that just seem to defy your understanding in actual and purposefully consciously aware ways? Are you a seeker of more personal enlightenment when it comes to aspects of your relationships, your attitude, your moods, and your over-all choices in your life?

There are times in life, the journey and process that is life unfolding, when sadness is every where. What it is important to remember about loss from the past that is still being resolved is that the transformational process of growing through its resolution hurts and brings with it much sadness. That sadness is necessary. [...]

You will know … where you are going when you get there. You will know … so much more when you open to being a student of life. You will know … what you need the moment you open to the needing of it. You will know … that you can do better the moment [...]

Just being there, that’s really all any one of us has to do in each and every unfolding moment. Just be there. Just be in it, with it, present to all it offers without judging it in anyway. Mindfully observing all that we experience in each unfolding moment. Be the one living the moment in [...]

Today marks the one year anniversary of my dog Mandy’s death. It has been a long year of very profound grief for me. It has not been an easy time at all. And yet, ironically, as I come to meet this day, as I had feared to some degree, the meeting and experiencing of this [...]

We all know that death is inevitable eventually. This reality is one that is not always easy to hold in our consciousness. So much harm is done, however, in attempts to deny this fixed truth. If we deny the reality that life is not infinite and live as if it won’t ever end we can [...]
