  • Giving in not giving up

    It has been said a thousand times that to change you have to do the work. You can’t buy your way out or through it. You can’t wish it away. You can’t really avoid it because anything you are putting off is gaining momentum in the astral plane. This is one of the things I… Read more

  • A true spiritual student

    To my fellow yogi brothers and sisters, in my humbleness I wanted to share some thoughts with you about what my teacher means to me, and how I feel this gives me a responsibility in return for his service. There have been many master teachers on the planet and we are very fortunate to have… Read more

  • hope and the point of pain

    I have just dealt with another loss. And loss of any kind is hard on humans, it’s not fun. it’s not fair. I hate it and the word hate doesn’t quite describe it. I have dealt with a lot of loss in that last few years. The loss of people family and things. And really… Read more

I could look for someone to talk to about… Read more

  • I woke up to another grey cloudy day. The dog sensing my displeasure began to desire a walk beyond any distraction I could come up with. Not even a busy bone would do, “walk or die” he said. The ground is wet, the air is chilly, I do not want to go out there!!! For… Read more

  • The art of being sick

    Ahhh nothing like being sick to put things back into perspective. What was important the day before you thought you might actually die from body pain due to the flu becomes , what was that thing I was thinking that was so important? Because nothing is important on the day you think you might die!!!… Read more

  • No man succeeds without a good woman behind him. Wife or mother, if it is both he is twice blessed indeed. A disturbing trend I see and hear about is the breakdown of the duties of the wife and mother, (good God read on before you roll your eyes). Face it and you know it,… Read more
