This first paragraph is here to acknowledge the suffering created by the pandemic, and whatever challenges you’ve gone or may still be going through because of it. Taking a step back and be contemplative may be a luxury to some, and there’s little point to making any ‘analysis’ when suffering is present and ongoing. So whether it’s serious illness or (…)
At the moment the world is in a state of turmoil. And it’s safe to say it’s a turmoil that is more or less affecting everyone, virtually speaking, each in their own way. Be it dealing with the disease itself, the stress and uncertainty of a loved one going through it, the anxiety about going outside, going to work, commute, (…)
If Earth was to go through changes and shifts, not all about the process was going to be clean and easy. Sometimes only acute situations are able to dislodge energy that was stuck and hardened for a long time. It is so on an individual level, and it is so on the collective one as well. Some parts are going (…)
In a relatively short period of time, social media rose and took center stage in our lives. Information of all kinds goes through, and is spread, across social media platforms.

Information travels extremely (…)
At various points during his/her lifetime, the human being will be assessing potential romantic partners.

Yet despite this she felt some difficulty in truly connecting with Spirit, in a close and clear mannner. She asked about how to see with her third eye, and also wanted to know who was (…)
When I was in college, on one particular semester I was able to arrange my weeks into 4 days of classes and 3 days of weekend. This was the best work/rest ratio experience I had at the time. Later in life, when I left my conventional career and became responsible for managing my own time, this one situation represented the (…)
There is a common, core hurt about living in society. And that is, when one individual chooses to do something “bad”, negative, unscrupulous, not only does he gain a competitive edge other other individuals — one that may be considered unethical and unfair — but also, there may not be anyone or anything willing, or able, to effectively prevent him from engaging in that (…)
In every human being there’s a deep spiritual thirst to quench. You may become occupied for some time, on occasion, with issues of survivability, comfort, love, acceptance, and so forth. But after these are taken care of, there remains one thing: the spiritual, or philosophical thirst, that can’t be ignored or dismissed indefinitely. This is part of being human. This (…)

One kind is the “profession” show, featuring a group of people as they go about doing their jobs and daily lives: manufacturing cars, bikes, and guns, gold digging, restoration, baking, pawnshop and auctioning . Or even about nothing special, for example “The Jersey Shore”. The second kind would be the different talent (…)
