We live in a culture that doesn’t sit well with most of us. We feel trapped between deep seated desire to follow our inspirations, and the reality of having to conform to the systems around us in order to live. Basic needs—food, water, shelter—cannot be met without participating at least to some extent in this […]
Money can be a roadblock on our path. If we have an idea where our road is going, clearing the path is easier. We should start with questions about our path and not money. Begin with the type of life you want to live and then figure out how money fits the plan. Working backward […]
I’ve never been the best at taking care of myself. I’m not sure where the disinterest comes from, but I do know that I feel like my physicality holds me back from becoming all that I am truly capable of being. I know that I am a soul in human form, here to grow through […]
Hundreds of movies and songs have pointed to it. Books and poems have alluded to it. Religions have embraced it: love is all the world needs to solve its problems.

Why are we here? This is the question that has driven humankind since the beginning of human reflection – when the first cave dwellers began to ponder the night sky. Can we ever really know the answer to this question? The doubters say no. They argue that our existence is too complicated for the human […]
If we think of Life as an ocean, and ourselves as water particles existing within it, I think it’s easy to imagine how we are all actually one. The energy of Life carries us along; sometimes it’s rough with us, sometimes it’s soothingly calm – at times, we’ll get pulled down by undercurrents into complete […]
I recently listened to Steve Pavlina’s podcast entitled, “Life, the Universe, and Everything”, and it got me contemplating our soul purpose and the worthiest pursuits in life.
