Shoulda, Coulda, and Woulda. No Regrets…

mom-scolding

Back in the Neolithic early 60′s when I was a kid, we played like hell all weekend (except for a forced break for church on Sunday).  After watching Lassie or maybe halfway into Dennis the Menace on Sunday night, that horrible thing happened…we remembered that we had about 2 hours of homework to do.  What [...]

Determine your Own Worth

When I was a young man (which now means when I was 20 – 40 years old) working for small companies and large corporations, I had a lot of misconceptions.  At first I thought the engineers were infallible since they were “professionals” and educated.  I thought the corporate heads were unfailingly upright people who pretty near always knew what they were doing…after [...]

Happy Appreciation Day

Every year here in the U.S. we set aside a day in November to celebrate abundance…and, we’re told, to give thanks for that abundance.  Our political and religious leaders admonish us to pray and express gratitude for what we have in life.  But exactly who or what is it that we’re thanking? It’s easy to [...]

Little Hop-Toad and the Penny

As anyone who’s dealt with me for any length of time is aware, I’m big on the idea of physical synchronicities as being some of the most useful guideposts for us.  Songs on the radio, street signs, the “11:11″ phenomena… even cloud formations have served me well in the past.  These signs can be useful in any number of [...]

Phone Phobia: I Don’t Bite!

I was recently reminded of a phenomena that I’d best describe as “phone phobia“.  It’s an irrational fear of speaking with strangers on the telephone; the roots of this fear are deep and subtle, yet it appears that many people are subject to it to some degree or another. I know whereof I speak.  Growing up [...]

Take the Long View to get the Big Picture

As many of you know, when I first began offering my services I identified myself as  a Soul Realignment practitioner…and that was that.  And that trademarked modality served me well for quite a while.  It gave me a framework upon which to hang my natural intuitive talents.  That work depends upon using a specific method [...]

The Difference Between “Need” and “Want”

A very nice lady recently posted a comment on my Facebook page to the effect that she doesn’t always have what she wants, but she always has what she needs – and is satisfied with that. Fair enough – sounds like a peaceful way to live.  But it got the wheels a-turning in my head; something didn’t [...]

Consciousness and Responsibility

Life – both physical and spiritual – is all about constant change.  As the old saying goes, you’re either busy being born or you’re busy dying (and in a physical sense you’re really doing both at the same time).  This is self-evident in all forms of physical life, and it’s also true when it comes [...]
