Most of us bring unnecessary drama into our lives. Drama helps us feel alive, responsible and reactive. What the drama truly serves as is a distraction. Their’s an art to “cutting to the chase.” It’s the ability to see what’s truly going on and respond to the reality as opposed to getting caught up in the fictitious […]

When people say their world is upside down it’s usually not a good sign. Typically, some uninvited force effected their life and they feel that things aren’t the way they should be. Imagine if you deliberately turned your world upside down. Why would you do that? Because glimmers of another reality have broken through the […]

Worry is one way to deal with reality.  It’s also the more unhealthy way. Doing something about it is far more productive.

Diversity has a nice ring to it. It’s popular. I”ll join a group that stands for it. Discrimination has a negative connotation. It’s not popular. I’m scared to be associated with anyone who advocates for it. Diversity and discrimination are two sides of the same coin. Through discrimination, we notice and appreciate diversity.
