I don’t believe limitation was ever meant to be a source of suffering.  I believe it was meant to be an immersive game—boundaries we use to explore possibility and potential before returning to a greater state of rest.

Intelligence (the ability to handle increasingly large amounts of uncertainty and logically predict the likeliest outcome) and creativity (making unapparent connections that have practical value) can only take you so far.  I’ve seen plenty of intelligent, creative people use their intelligence and creativity to advance their own bias and flawed premises, resulting in failure at…

Possibility has a habit of defying our expectations.  That needn’t be bad, for there are hidden opportunities in each “disappointment,” and each “frustration.” Depending on our perception, life can be an adventure, instead of a letdown or a rigid set of predictable events.

I become much more lucid when I accept and empathize with the insanity of others.  Only then can we both make a case for our individual sanity.

Did we come into this world to pay for past transgressions, to save others, to learn lessons, to sacrifice and toil until we earn a heavenly reward? Or did we come into this world to appreciate the moment and channel a natural, creative transcendence? I think our beliefs shape our experience.  I think that our…

I’ve seen people continuously harangue each other to “wake up” to “the truth.” Rarely, however, have I seen people exemplify their positions.  Those who live their truth make a powerful, effortless argument for it.

The religious model of thought binds us to a checklist where we pay for heaven/enlightenment with a litany of actions.  Often, we are encouraged to be martyrs—happiness is an “indulgence” unless everyone else attains it first—and look out for the devil. The fundamentalist/evangelical mode of thought builds on this—not only are we obligated to live…

There is settling for worse—making excuses to remain stagnant and rotten, perpetuating the fight within—and there is accepting what is, which allows me to give up the internal fight and open my eyes to the best way forward.  Giant difference.

Like most people, I’ve struggled and striven for optimal systems—an evangelist set of do’s and don’ts that will shape my outcomes—but I’ve found that unless I’m dealing with safe, predictable, low-reward problems, it’s a shortfall approach. It’s better to train my moment-to-moment focus, trusting that everything happens for a good reason.  This opens my eyes…

If I believe in my own worthiness and I work with what I’m given, I may not have to “pay the price” for whatever I desire.  My perception can be trained to see reward/synchronicity as a matter-of-fact occurrence, instead of a scrap I should grovel and sacrifice for.  With a trained perception, I will spot…
