August 20, 2010 - In my experience questing for understanding of spiritual aspects of the human community, I have had occasion to encounter some unusual synchronicities. One such event emerged while perusing a lecture by noted Initiate and spiritual scientist, Rudolf Steiner. 
Marcus Aurelius asked “What am I doing with my soul?” He suggests we interrogate ourselves to find out what inhabits our “so-called” mind and what kind of soul we have right now; that of a child, an adolescent, a predator orits prey?

August 20. 2010 - I've been getting a lot of emails to join prayer groups for the healing of the oceans, the forests, the earth; and just when it seems to me that people are starting to actually wake up, I get other emails that say 'the gods are angry', 'the earth is angry', 'these catastrophes are happening in areas where people have been evil for too long and god is teaching a lesson'. They reek of judgment, fear, and projection. 
August 19, 2010 - It’s hard to turn away from spirit, and not become egotistic.

SUCCESS versus FAILURE.. which is a better TEACHER?
Consider the basketball contest that is close all game, hard fought and is decided in the final seconds by a single point. What happens? The winner moves on to the next game. The winner feels pretty good as in the end, it’s another victory. Most concerning, when you win, many issues ,mistakes, problems and ‘sins’ get covered up with the win. With the exception of the most driven of coaches like Lombardi, Landry and Wooden, the mistakes are, for lack of a better word, overlooked. Now what about the team that played just as good or better, and for whatever fateful reason, came up a point short. They have a ‘L’ in the Win/ Loss column. While the winners are out celebrating, the losers are combing through the entire game wondering… ‘what if we did this’ or ‘we should have done that?’ Where do we need improvement so we aren’t even in a position to lose that game the next time?

March 2, 2010 - Commonly known as Dr Seuss, Geisel may be THEE best children’s book authority that ever has lived. Known for his witty and life lesson rhymes, Seuss has authored countless treasures such as ‘Green Eggs and Ham’, ‘Horton hears a Who’, ‘The Cat in the Hat’ and arguably the most famous of all, ‘The Grinch who stole Christmas.’ Most remarkable is the fact that adults can learn quite a bit as well from his works.
