Dropping this person and picking up that person doesn’t end the loneliness that drives us into dead-end relationships. This isn’t letting go. We have only managed to put the emptiness on hold. Changing jobs to get away from someone or something that sets us off doesn’t cancel our conflict. This just delays the inevitable angry feelings that always surface whenever we feel threatened. Our anger cannot …CONTINUE READING HERE: The Realization that Leads to Genuine Letting Go

On writing, and publishing, a novel of ideas – particularly one with Spiritual underpinnings: It’s been three months since I posted my initial thoughts.

Which would you rather have: a personal fire truck and a fire to put out every day, or a life free of painful fires? The truth is… most of us spend a great deal of our time struggling, in vain, to sort out one conflict or another… with others, with the world, or within ourselves. …CONTINUE READING HERE: Freedom From the Fear of Feeling Powerless

Let Go and Awaken to a Whole New You

By the fact that everything about her existence is perfectly ordered, Mother Nature is “choice-less.” What does being “without choice” mean in this context? All creatures — from the smallest to the largest — from gnat, to gorilla, all the way to the humpback whale, must serve nature as she demands. Their individual lives exist to serve and to sustain a living planetary matrix greater than themselves. One of the gifts of being human is that our individual potential far exceeds the boundaries of our animal body, which like all natural creations must serve the general laws it’s been created …CONTINUE READING HERE: Let Go and Awaken to a Whole New You
