Interesting perspective wouldn’t you say? It never fails. It never fails that when I lie on the ground and all my weight is born upon the coolness of the earth that my perspective and understanding about life is tweaked. This is why as often as possible I try to do a lot of photography from the ground looking up/out. As I lay on the earth and journal…and create my 2021 there are lots of families…

You…yes you.  And I.  As long as we are in this body we will be both darkness and light.  The intensity of the darkness and light will fluctuate in intensity as we journey.  That is because none of us are static.  We are not fixed beings.

I don’t care how much work Jesus does in you.  I don’t care how much inner work you do.  How much space you hold.  How many vices you conquer.   You will NOT…

My new way of processing the hardships of life is stealing away…

I’ve slept maybe 3 hours. I’ve thought all night about subjectivity and relativity. About vibrance and frailty. About the fading nature of seemingly pinnacle pursuits and how very much I’ve grown as a human and am growing. I have undergone major paradigm shifts in the last 3 years or so and pain and sorrow have been the catalysts for all of them. My philosophy about the human experience has…

Hermetic Wisdom In Modern Times: The Behavior of Jesus

Isaiah 53:7 He was oppressed and afflicted, yet he did not open his mouth; he was led like a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before its shearers is silent, so he did not open his mouth.

Romans 8:35-36

Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or hardship or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword? 36 As it is written:

“For your sake we face death…

This week I will be welcoming a new little nephew into my life.  We are on baby watch for my youngest brother’s first born.  The cycles of life never cease to fascinate me.

Liminality.   No matter where we are at in life one thing is constant and that is that we all are in liminal space.   We are always on a threshold of some kind of transition.

I look around me and at once feel an…

You Have A Compass

That gut feeling. You know the one. That inner voice that says, “even though they are betting against me…they’re gonna regret sleeping on me.” How many times has this still small voice came up inside you but you ignored it? How many times have you ignored the emotional intelligence that IS your very essence?

You have a compass. Trust it. You didn’t come this far by some stroke of luck.

You are a…

Wisdom chooses the path to honor. When I say the word, “honor” it’s likely everyone reading this will have various images come to mind. What 5 words or visuals come to your mind when you read the sentence, “wisdom chooses the path to honor.”? Maybe you picture a patriotic scene of an American flag and soldiers and your heart fills with gratitude for their service. Maybe you picture your parents…

When you’re feeling small…just remember…

For all the times you’ve felt insignificant. For the times you’ve felt completely unnoticed or unseen.

A shift in perspective is needed. Allow me to be your catalyst.

You are everything. The universe, everything that exists can only be perceived because of, “I.” There is no “me” unless there is a, “you.”

The world really does revolve around…

“One after another the greatest writers, poets, and artists confirm the fact that their work comes to them from beyond the threshold of consciousness.” Percy Bysshe Shelley

Creatives can we talk?

Your gifts are about so much more than you. They are bigger than you. And, that’s why sometimes you feel so much struggle and pain when you are birthing your greatest works.

Our gifts and…

If You’re Going To Heal You Have To Be Able To Feel

Just heard this statement, “in order to heal you need to be able to feel.”

How often in our journeys do we wrestle with uncomfortable emotions that we don’t know what to do with?  Recently, I’ve been doing some intense shadow work.  I’m acknowledging rather than stuffing down some really tough feelings.  Feelings of inadequacy, loneliness, disappointment, and frustration have made me feel like…

I laid in the grass today at the park for nearly 3 hours.  Getting my luxes in and recharging in the sun.  I could help but notice that the nail art (here’s that a-word again) mirrored the sky.  White wisps on a bright blue palette. 

I am a metaphorical thinker.  My brain quickly finds interesting correlations that often lead me to profound self-discovery.

It occurred to me that what was…
