Home bound

What determines the feeling of home, that feeling of comfort to relax and just be yourself? Is it truly the place, or is it a mind set? It would be hard to argue that memory isn’t involved. The feeling of familiar surroundings continually reenforced. A safe place of predictability. The floor that creaks, and the […]

Unified cosm

The idea that everything is connected and works as one, is an age old idea. It’s generally split up into two parts, the microcosm and macrocosm. Does two parts imply the other is different? A closer look reveals the microcosm to be a mirrored image of the macrocosm on a smaller scale to dissect and […]

The unseen

Our small piece of the total picture holds no position for judgment. This also includes self-judgment. We simply do not have the whole picture, but we assume we do and run with it. Every bit of this tendency stems from our own self judgment. And as I’ve said before, this self judgment is what causes […]

What really matters

Getting to the core of what I really want in life has taken me on quite a ride over the past year or so. Freedom from the worlds promise and a noisy mind sent me in all different directions. Mostly with a theme of helping others find the same. There is one very big difference […]

Future tales

Mapping out events to come with imagination is tricky business. If it’s seen to be a good thing it will bring feelings to match. But as you know there is another side to that coin. Either way, it comes as it comes and rarely does it match imagination. I have found that past trauma and […]

Lost to innocence

To the one that knows their own light, life will give you its sweetest touch. A quality daring any word to capture, fills a life that’s truly lived. Wealth that flows without end, sings a melody. One that has no sound, yet fills the air with brilliance. Sell a thought for this kingdom and it […]

Self loyalty

The idea of loyalty to yourself is mostly attributed to protecting and standing up for yourself. It’s often missed that how you treat others is a truer reflection of how loyal you truly are. First let’s establish what being truly loyal to yourself looks like. Loyalty is compassion and value for yourself. Knowing you’re not […]

No more time

Time is an interesting experience. Or is it just an interesting idea? All the wisdom teachers say it has no existence, and yet here we are, feeling like it does. It’s difficult to argue the fact that we can only ever experience this moment. So what’s the deal? The deal is, the sensation of time […]

Identifying temptations

The awe felt through the eyes of artistry is truly a divine gift. Reserved for those that follow their hearts calling, it’s a life of timeless creation. Larger than life they line our memory with greatness. Nary a one, lived an ease life. Like fuel to the fire of creation, tragedy and heartbreak follows the […]

Lonely light

There is one feeling that stands above all others. A feeling that carries an impact that will challenge your whole sense of value. Loneliness is a gift for value. There is no other dualistic experience that creates more value than loneliness. Loneliness carries beyond the physical realm of opposing qualities. Being left out in the […]
