(Art by 7th Dimension Energy ) I like the image above as representing the concept of alternate realities: where from the central core of our soul we spiral out spokes of infinite branches that develop their own version of potential lives. This consideration that alternate realities exist is hard to get your head around; andContinue reading “Considering Alternate Realities”

Pendulum Swings
In the back of my mind I was still mulling over the metaphoric aspects of the previous post on “Highlights and Shadows” when I listened this morning to Frank Bruni on Margaret Hoover’s “Firing Line” show where he solidified my thoughts on how we view our political and ideological extremism. While the skilled artist worksContinue reading “Pendulum Swings”
Highlights and Shadows
As a longtime artist, I know my way around tools of the trade: from drawings with pencils/pens/charcoal to painting with watercolor, acrylics and oil. In college I was primarily a woodworker with woodcuts and sculpture, but I leaned toward functionality over pure aesthetics, which meant more of a useful framed construction and practical creations, likeContinue reading “Highlights and Shadows”
I Want Peace
Sometimes I run across a new posting that catches my eye enough to explore it further and then share it here. This one from Sister, I am with you had me at “..I also want Mexican food, but you know….” It takes a decent sense of humor to survive through this strange ‘living-experience’ thing thatContinue reading “I Want Peace”
Quasars
“A quasar (/ˈkweɪzɑːr/ KWAY-zar) is an extremely luminous active galactic nucleus (AGN). It is sometimes known as a quasi-stellar object, abbreviated QSO. The emission from an AGN is powered by a supermassive black hole with a mass ranging from millions to tens of billions of solar masses, surrounded by a gaseous accretion disc. Gas inContinue reading “Quasars”
Being Human
“This being human is a guest house—every morning is a new arrival. A joy, a depression, a meanness, some momentary awareness comes as an unexpected visitor. Welcome and entertain them all. Treat each guest honorably. The dark thought, the shame, the malice, meet them at the door laughing and invite them in. Be grateful forContinue reading “Being Human”
Surviving the Storm
Evidently my intuitive energy-awareness is still able to pick up similar inputs to what Lee Harris is intuiting. He covers much of the same ‘flushing out the old energies’ aspects that I mentioned in my previous post, but also gives it broader context for you to consider so perhaps it might make more sense toContinue reading “Surviving the Storm”
Expectations and Disappointments
Hey, don’t we all have certain expectations on all aspects of our lives, and then feel the subsequent disappointments that naturally accompany those unmet expectations whether they were realistic or not? Maybe we expected our lives to turn out as some fantasized version of happiness and prosperity, but it just didn’t happen for us. OrContinue reading “Expectations and Disappointments”
Memory As Such
If I could only remember everything I’ve read throughout my life, what wisdom I could spout now. Unfortunately my memory spits and sputters like an asthmatic lawnmower engine proving it has just enough spark to announce important potential to the situation at hand, but not enough cranking power to keep the entire thought moving forwardContinue reading “Memory As Such”
Sitting in Your Soul
NICABM (National Institute for the Clinical Application of Behavioral Medicine) offers Facebook image blurbs to encourage healthy living and enhanced mental resilience; plus occasionally offering online classes and speaker summits that I’ve participated in previously. Today’s image above is focused on the importance of MINDFULNESS with the Ram Dass quote: “When you are down hereContinue reading “Sitting in Your Soul”
Standing in the Stream
During summer’s heat, if you don’t mind getting your feet wet you’ve likely stood at least one time in a gentle stream and allowed the cool running water to casually flow over and around your feet and lower legs. There where the current is mild with water tickling your ankles and calves as it envelopsContinue reading “Standing in the Stream”
Remember the Mountains and Valleys
“When you start to feel like things could have been better this yearRemember the mountains and valleys that got you here They are not accidents and those moments weren’t in vain.You are not the same You have grown and you are growing.You are breathing , you are living.You are wrapped in EndlessBoundlessGraceAnd things will getContinue reading “Remember the Mountains and Valleys”
