Oh to live in a world where beauty, peace and harmony surrounds me every day. To awaken in a place where the sun is always shining and the birds are always singing.

Cut to the Chase
Experience is the one and only true teacher of our belief system. We may have an idea about certain things – but until we experience these things first hand, our idea of what we believe is true remains our belief. Any attempt to change another person’s beliefs will be met with resistance, reason being, mostContinue reading “Cut to the Chase”
Minnesota Burning
A knee to the neck was not the match that started the fires in Minnesota. Embers from injustice have been steadily sparking-up since the 1960’s and going as far back as the 1690’s. But a foot in the mouth during a press conference certainly fuelled the flame. We all need to stop – take aContinue reading “Minnesota Burning”
Will History Repeat Itself
Claims of ‘incredible’ dishonesty, ‘unbelievable’ voter fraud, ‘ridiculous’ scams and … the list goes on and on. These ideas [made up claims] are being spewed by a man who is the supposed leader of the free world. He sees himself as the ‘ultimate’ victim. Too bad he couldn’t see himself as a leader – afterContinue reading “Will History Repeat Itself”
Lying to Myself
“So much to do, with so little time.” A phrase I’ve heard many people say, including myself. But now I wonder if I said it as an excuse for not doing something I should have done.

Stirring the Pot
Sometimes it’s hard to be joyful when our thoughts are constantly focused on worrying. I learned an interesting approach to negative emotions years ago that is very helpful. When sad, make someone else feel happy. When hungry, feed someone else. It’s amazing how doing for others lifts you up and makes you feel better inside.Continue reading “Stirring the Pot”
Value’s Weight Varies
Liking or disliking anything [or anyone] is decided after weighing its’ value. It’s a process most often done consciously once we recognize our own personal gains or losses. This made me feel good; that made me angry; these cost too much; those are ugly. I can’t help but notice there seems to be some confusionContinue reading “Value’s Weight Varies”
Intention is on Trial Today
The trial in the Senate is a battle between Trump’s current and temporary future vs America’s constitutional and permanent future. Today will determine who will put themselves first over their country, or who will put country over themselves. What drives each and everyone of us to do anything is purely based on our intent. WhyContinue reading “Intention is on Trial Today”
Personal Interests
We all have personal preferences and individual goals that we each aim to achieve. However, the minute we arrive at work, our personal life should be set aside, and a mutual co-operative goal should be the focus. One that follows the business at hand. Politically speaking, any government servant is supposed to work for theContinue reading “Personal Interests”
