Fanning the flames
[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] What IS love, and why is it so hard for some to find it? I recently … well more accurately – often … put some thought into this matter, and suddenly, in that crazy, eye-opening way that so often floors me: UNDERSTOOD Love can only be defined by individuals. It is not possible to […]
The voice(s) of compassion – #1000Speak
[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]It is sad that lately the only time I feel compelled to write here is when something bad happens in the world. But instead of my usual rant (though I do have a bit of rant to share), maybe for a change I will have words that will ultimately bring hope and positive thoughts into […]
Re-reflecting on reflections
[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] My journey of late has become more metaphysical than physical. Who knew that would be the more painful adventure? I love mirrors. Well, to be more accurate, I love reflective surfaces. To me they are like gateways to other worlds; doorways to What If. They are spark plugs for the imagination engine … ready […]
What do YOU want from The Wizard?
How strongly do you hold your beliefs? What is the line that you will not cross? Is there one? If you set such a limit, are you actually being true to your beliefs, or admitting that they can be compromised? If someone does NOT set such limits, are they therefore more barbaric? More cruel? Or […]
Is HOW your primary question?
[vc_row][vc_column width=”1/12″][/vc_column][vc_column width=”10/12″][vc_custom_heading source=”post_title” font_container=”tag:h2|text_align:center” use_theme_fonts=”yes”][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text] Far better is it to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered by failure… than to rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy nor suffer much, because they live in a gray twilight that knows not victory nor defeat. -Theodore Roosevelt I have often heard […]
Cupid is being replaced!
I am constantly amazed at how technology can improve our lives. There is no aspect of our life that has not been made easier by advances in technology. We hardly have to expend any effort at all any more to do … well … anything. Hungry? We could always go to the kitchen, prepare a meal, and […]
Keeping on track.
Clarity of vision can be affected by many factors. Physical limitations of the eyes. The amount of light available. Are there any things around that might block vision? Obviously it is much easier to see far in an open field on a clear sunny day than it is to see in a dark room filled with […]
What IS “peace” anyway?
PAX nation is devoted to bringing humanity back to its senses. Or for many maybe to find their senses for the first time. Most of the differences we perceive in each other are just that … perceptions. Everybody has the same basic drives, the same basic needs. It is not until we get the mind involved that […]
How do I know what to do?
[vc_row][vc_column width=”1/12″][/vc_column][vc_column width=”10/12″][vc_custom_heading source=”post_title” font_container=”tag:h2|text_align:center” use_theme_fonts=”yes”][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]What determines the value of an action? Is it just the results? Or do intentions play any role in the matter? This is a very old question, and the answer is one we each must answer for ourselves. It usually takes the form of “Do the ends justify the means?” To me […]
