It is precisely in our defeats not our triumphs, that we discover the deepest nature of our hearts and the true face of our most private hopes. It is what the trials of the climb threaten to take from you that frame with pristine clarity the connection we have to any meaning we might come to in life.
the only right way to worship is your own way. even so, it is up to you to make it count. We have many powerful traditions at our disposal, and people throughout our lives that prescribed to us, often in ways we had no freedom to ignore, how we should […]
The theme for this month is Accepting our Natures. This month we explore how our biology, our genetics, and our neural chemistry affect our psychology.
Each of us can begin by facing the small discomforts we have been avoiding, and learn to sit with those, learn to show leadership to our selves, and learn stillness, to not be so easily triggered and moved about by the flutterings of emotion and the drama that is authored by the apparatus of our minds when our conscious awareness and sense of adult leadership is not in the room.
If we inspect our hearts closely, we discover our wounds were caused, so seldomly, by people who intended harm, and so often instead, by people who who simply did not have the presence of mind to be self-aware and exercise self-ownership. Our closest relationships wound us, because so often, they, […]
words of inspiration. Your dance and your song have their own sacred truth. Your light and your voice and your shadow that you cast; the footprint you leave on this earth and in the hearts of other people, is rare and unmatched and inimitable.
we cannot choose our starting positions, or the tools we have today, but we can choose tomorrow's. To reach, means both to strive towards something beyond ourselves, and our arrival there. Our job is not to explain the handicap we have or the mess we have inherited from our childhoods […]

there are two ways to be made whole: connection is the horizontal integration, and Integrity & Authenticity is the vertical integration. the sad fact of a human life is this: you can have one without the other, you can have either vertical integration without the latter or vice versa,and when […]
the divine that i seek, is not in the temple, if it is not also outside the temple... Our journeys through childhood, our lack of initiation into adulthood, our being lead and taught by people who themselves had never been properly inducted into life, programmed by a culture that had […]
We are who we repeatedly choose to be. Everything is hard at first. A lot of the project of Growth and Healing comes down to a kind of growing up, accepting that: There are no quick fixes, there is not some Deus Ex Machina, there is no magic bullet that […]
every wave we ride becomes a wave we make. Quantum means measured in ‘packets’. Setting and pursuing Intention, exerting will, the living of a Life, is done in packets. We experience these as cycles, seasons, tides, waves, even Incarnations. At the ending of each meaningful cycle or packet, our ticket […]
There is nothing in life that is not improved by increased perspective and stillness. To be curious and present in the face of tragedy, pain, regret or fear, requires great vulnerability and great courage, but you cannot grow and heal without those key aspects and the chosen stance to embody them: Curiosity, Presence, Vulnerability and Courage.
