STOP & LISTEN STOP! Just stop. Really. I know it is difficult. We live 25 hour lives, each and every day, in a 24 hour reality. There is so much to process. It is all just more than you can handle. So ….. just don’t handle it.
Crazy Is As Crazy Does
It is really not nice to call someone crazy. But what if they are? What exactly is crazy, and how easy is it to discern when you come up against one? Should you run away, far away, as quickly as possible, so as not to catch whatever it is that they have? Or should you start a conversation with them, …
Is That All Ya Got ?
THE UNSEEN CONFLICT Life can be really tough, sometimes. I know that mine is, and has been the most difficult one, of how many I do not know, that I have ever experienced, or can remember. It is extremely difficult not to get wrapped up in those things that impact your life and your own well-being. I am not sure …
Namasté
You will hear us talk about the power of words many times on these pages. They are a tool. They can be a weapon. They are misused all the time, even by apparently well-educated and informed individuals. Words have meanings, and those meanings can be very specific. We need to use them wisely, with forethought and consideration for their essence. …
I Cry
I cry for you. I cry for me. I do not really know why I cry, sometimes. And other times, I know quite well. This thing we call life is quite an experience. I am not sure we give it the attention it deserves, what with the complexities of what has come to be known as the ‘ daily grind …
The Wall
Walls, walls, everywhere. Here a wall, and there a wall. How many walls do you have in your life? How many have you constructed so far? And how many have you destroyed? Walls give us structure. They contain things. They protect us, and we like that. Sometimes they restrict us, or deny us, and of course we don’t usually like …
Alone
One of the most perplexing of complexities is the concept of aloneness. We all live with the idea that man is a social animal. It is taught to us as we develop and it is drilled into us throughout our education, and well beyond. It is a perfectly good theory, if we do not think about it too long, and …
Forever And A Day
Love is a beautiful thing. Unfortunately the word has been used by all the wrong people, and for all the wrong reasons. Over-used may be more like it. The word is so simple. We all use it. All the time, and often in ways that have absolutely nothing to do with love itself. We all abuse the word, and the …
The Hard Road
There are no easy roads. Not in this life. The easy road is one of little or no challenge. No wonder. No excitement. No substance. No enlightenment. No value. So, in reality, the easy road is just kickin’ the can down the road, waiting for whatever may come next, with no direction and no expectations. Not caring what has already …
For Rent: Old Soul
Nothing seems different today. But today can never be the same as the one that is now past. I feel like the same person that I was yesterday. But in reality, maybe not exactly. We are the product of our experiences, and there are new ones all the time. We learn something new, no matter how small, each and every …
