  • Observations. . .from my lifetimes. . .

    If you do not intend to look back,  it’s best to remember to lift the plow. ***** Wishes are as potent a force as fishes swimming in live water. *****  Under adverse conditions, we become more of what we are. *****  To think is a holy obligation.  And to be held accountable should follow.  We…

  • Observations. . . .

    I live in a neat house.  On the day I set out the trash, garbage pickers drive by to look for good things.  They drive away when they realize my garbage is like everyone else’s.  They soon realize I don’t throw away good stuff. *****   For too many people life is a closed circuit TV. …

  • The Scales Are Just. . . .

      We are not  the product of one lifetime, but many lifetimes and many frameworks.  And we are a reference point to other frameworks. ***** The Ego which needs continual stroking becomes unwieldly and obscures divine passage. ***** ‘I am only human’ is an excuse that has been overworked. ***** To dismantle another’s world demands…

  • Time’s Gleanings. . .

    All knowledge is applicable to the self.  If it is used to manipulate and maneuver Others  it then becomes a game. ***** Insight implies sight to be applied inward. ***** Genuine laughter cleanses the toxic waste from swollen glands. *****  Only the secure one can afford to laugh at oneself. ***** To laugh at oneself…

  • From My Plate. . .

        Perspective depends on how open one’s head is.  Or how tightly closed it is.                                                   *****  We yearn with the client for a vacation in an Eden which feeds and does not accuse.                                        …

  • Scribings. . . .

        Scribings. . . . To stand straight need not be at the expense of another’s fall.  It can be because of one’s need to reach higher than one knows.                                            ***** Facing one’s self in declining years is a task best left to those who point to kudos on their walls.  Their sights…

  • A Resting Place. . . .

      Conclusions are reached by methodical circumcision.  We  cut apart our hearts and yield what we can.  ***** There will always be those things which cost dearly and have no remunerative value.  They may be outside our frame of reference but are recognized when the time is right.  Then you know you have paid dearly…

  • This I Know. . because I learned. . .

      This I Know. . . because I learned. . .
