The ego is a funny thing. For many it is what defines them (USED BY IT), and they daren’t venture beyond its confines. For others, it is like a cage they are trapped in. For still others, it is all that is. And for yet others, it feels like the controller of who they are [...]
In conversation with another renegade free thinker this morning, I shared my experience of Braco, who shared his gazing gift at Agape this past weekend. He suggested I write about my experience as it may serve others. You can find my friend Ran at http://livingthedreamdeferred.blogspot.com This past Sunday, Agape welcomed Braco (pronounced Brat-zo) and he shared [...]
“I can’t afford to.” “I don’t have time.” “I am too busy.” “It’s not my thing.” If you have said any of these before (and I have too), get a clue! “I don’t know what your destiny will be, but one thing I do know: the only ones among you who will be really happy are [...]
Humility means different things to different people. For some, it means weakness or being less than. For others it has connotations of shame or chagrin.

Saying there was a little trepidation as I took what was one HUGE leap of faith is about as accurate as calling the weather in Los Angeles slightly sunny!

Again, these traps are equally impactful, and the order is somewhat unscientific! Let’s get to it. It is so tempting in this life to do what gets us by in our everyday lives. How many times have you made the choice to not do something risky or challenging or that may change your status quo? [...]
Honestly, these three traps are not graded by intensity or survey preference. The trap (or traps) you recognize for yourself may be in a different priority order than mine. The information, awareness, and resolution, however, are not dependent on the order! I just chose to write them in reverse order subjectively! So let’s get started. [...]
How can you be spiritual and yet get upset? Being spiritual means different things to different people. It may mean you have an understanding of who you are as a spiritual being, or have a spiritual practice of some sort, whether meditation, yoga, reading, or something else. For some folks, it is important for them [...]
Before I get rolling, let me disclose that what follows is my own personal perception and knowing of God, and if yours differs, that is the uniqueness that we all are. The title is lifted from Joan Osborne, yet it opens up an interesting discussion. God is not just one of us, God is all of us, individually and collectively. God [...]
