Spirituality
Spirituality to me is about truth. Finding out what our true nature is and living in this truth. Awakening to the truth is a deep realization of what you really are. Many have tried to name it or put a label on it. You can not really name it because whatever name you put on [...]

Landing on my Feet The traveling has brought us to a new home…at least for now I call it home. We’ve landed in beautiful Gibson’s on the Sunshine Coast of British Columbia. I must say, it is beautiful here. I am feeling extremely blessed. We are renting a space on the water. We have a view of the coastal mountains, Keats Island and the ferry as it makes its hourly runs back and forth from Horseshoe Bay. I’m feeling a real connection to the Earth, a grounding.

I recall a time in my journey where I could not read enough spiritual books, could not listen to enough CD’s...
You are not a Problem to be Solved!!
I’ve been reading poetry from my favorite spiritual teacher, Adyanshanti, from his book, “My Secret is Silence”. He has such a beautiful way of speaking the Truth. One quote of his, really hits home to me. I have actually heard him say this quite a few times. “You are not a walking mistake. You are not a problem to be solved”. Whenever I feel really down on myself, I try to remember those words. It lifts the weight of the world off of my shoulders. It really...
