This message is one in which we can begin to recognize who we really are. So when you close eyes, where are you? Where is this body you cling too? When the eyes are closed it seems to be gone, the only reminder of the body is the senses you have. So my question to you is, if this body is only recognized by the senses, then where in fact are you? Where is this YOU we are all talking... Read more
I remember sitting in a college class and the teacher quoting from, Descartes, “I think therefore I am.” Like everything, consciousness is ever expanding and shifting the way in which see life. We used to believe that the earth was square, now we know that it is not. We know this because someone questioned the paradigm of what we thought we were seeing. With quantum physics, different sciences, metaphysics, and spirituality, we are beginning to understand that it maybe should... Read more
Life is a process, a process of going from talking about it, listening to it, and then finally walking it. The process from the known which is everything you have ever accumulated in your life, such stories of the same relationships, same jobs, beliefs, expectations, needs, co-dependence, addictions, behaviors, bias, judgments, criticisms, self-hate, humiliation, abuse toward self and others, family, friends, blame, complaining, worry, with-holding, white lies, dark lies, etc…all of it.

This presence is for you, for life, for love without any conditions. Yet as we experience our life we run up against wonderful opportunities to expand even further. So is God breaking... Read more
I observed someone telling another that their friend had passed away. The other , after hearing the news remarked, “I will hold you and your family in prayer.” There was a long silence, as the two sat there in a slightly uncomfortable way. What can one say? We say, “RIP” which means Rest In Peace. I invite you to look at Life. The larger Life. The whole. The place in you, where conflict, stories, bias, doesn’t exist. Sit there, however... Read more
