Often when things aren’t looking the way you believe they should… a shift is in order. And often it is human nature (or perhaps just mine?) to assume that changes that seem required are tangible and physical. Persons, places or things must be moved, dressed up, forgotten or thrown away. Everything on the outside is [...]
What happens in Australia stays in Australia? Not if I can help it. I always talk about balance in my life, more than often when I am out of it. When someone is IN balance it is likely that they wouldn’t be thinking about it (a little like the old saying that claims if someone [...]
And the beauty of this is that I just don’t care. There was a time when the most important thing in my world was to make sure that I was pleasing people and liked by all. A bit disgusting, although I did not handle it as much outwardly as I thought about it inwardly. A [...]
Sure beats the crap out of frustration or paranoia. The art of surrender and the path towards the attempts for breaking of habits is filled with potholes and diversions. Each day can be a challenge and a field trip in acute awareness. It should not be a negative journey… not by a longshot. It can [...]

It is akin to awareness of addictive behavior and can be the direct result of the surrender. Detachment is release and renewal of priority and focus, but should not be [...]
It is always good to develop a mantra to help in the aid of a new process. I have discovered that the central susceptibility to self will is environment. What we are around… listening to, reading, experiencing can be detrimental if allowed towards a sense of spiritual comfort and peace. Subconsciously the human mind can [...]
Sometimes change comes easier when it happens within. Perhaps it would be better to say that I am kick-starting a spiritual death in order to bring forth a new and better path. It is likely that this will be the same path I’ve been on but with a different focus, including new priorities and a [...]
Some days it feels like Sunset Boulevard. There are people in the world that do not embrace change. It is a challenge and a roadblock to a pattern that provides comfort and shelter. I am not one of these people, as much as it seems some may think. … and I’m fine with that because [...]
The sound of letting go of the results. Fear is incapacitating. It drives the car. It makes the decisions. It chooses the fates. It is so very easy for me to know how things are going to turn out because of experiences I have already had. If it happened before it is bound to happen [...]
