Thoughts. Findings. Revelations. Beliefs. Theories.

And the occasional epiphany.

(These are the things I know for sure)

What is happening to each of us at the moment we question our purpose in the world is more than just a mid-life crisis… it is a spiritual intervention.

Under the grace of a burgeoning spirituality, there grows a wondrous, encompassing sense of humility.

Inside each one of us there is a great passion. With it, we can alter destiny, create our own future…even change the world. All we have to do is find it.

If you’re successful in this world, you have a responsibility-the social, ethical and more importantly the cosmic responsibility to help others reach their dreams.

When you are finally on the road to your purpose, you know it, because you can feel it. Suddenly, out of inertia there is incredible velocity. Your future is also pulling you towards it. An undeniable attraction.

It is a paradox. The very thing that you’re afraid to face in your life, you avoid…and by avoiding it, you only make it more real and more insurmountable. The only way out is through it.

In order to be really, truly happy, you have to create your own life. What you end up with is a sequence of daily events designed to sustain a heightened level of feeling.

There exists for each of us in this world-an optimum trajectory. A path in life that ultimately leads to happiness, spiritual awareness, and the fulfillment of purpose.

We all came here for a reason. We are not just tourists.

The passionate life is the life in which all blessings flow.

Spirituality is the awareness, the celebration, and the nurturing of our connectivity to each other, to everything there is…and to that from which we came.

We are all, everyone of us, on a spiritual timeline. We all come to spirituality at some point in our lives. How will you choose to respond?

The world is a beautiful place to be. It’s not worth even one minute being angry, sad, depressed, or worse…..indifferent.

Most of us live somewhere in between-the life we have, and the life we have not.

I believe that if I wish hard enough, one day I may find myself living inside the dream instead of the other way around.

Turn the logic off. Find your way through the world emotionally.

Spirituality does not have a standardized first contact protocol. It comes to each of us in different ways, it whispers different things to each of us, and we in turn translate its message in different ways.

It is impossible for any of us to fully understand the nature of our existence. It is outside our realm of comprehension at this point in our evolution..but I am convinced the truth will exceed even our wildest expectations.

I am already what I believe myself to be.

Here, against all odds, there is a miracle unfolding all around us.

When you meet someone for the first time, instead of asking them what they do for a living, ask them what they like to do in their free time. It’s closer to the truth.

The goal is to find our way back to the natural world.  To remove all of the man-made obstacles…or at least make them so utterly transparent so that we can eventually…instinctually return to a state of cooperation.

Finding real peace is a point reachable only under various synergistic conditions….one of which being spirituality.

See yourself standing in the middle of the intersection where purpose, passion, and spirituality collide.

I am alive, awake and aware. A cosmic avatar in search of what rightfully belongs to me-my purpose.

It is for all of us. A moment when we are absolutely certain that there is more to us than what we are seeing in the mirror.

Some egos have teeth. I have the scars to prove it.

Smoking is nothing more than suicide in slow motion.

If you are facing a challenge of any kind in your life, you better start with nutrition. You can’t build a skyscraper on quicksand.

Slow down. We are all living in a world where instant gratification is not fast enough.

The American Dream is about utilizing our resources, our opportunites, and our freedom to create a life-not necessarily of wealth or stature-but one full of meaning.

When we were young, we dreamt of becoming astronauts, ballerinas, cowboys, movie stars, and magicians. I’m pretty sure none of us grew up saying we wanted to be the West Coast Senior Sales Administrative Analyst.

In search of purpose. Fueled by passion. Guided by spirit.

There is an inexplicable wonder that is happening to all of us right now.

We are all…..pioneers. Everything we do here, no matter how grand or how infinitesimally small, has never before happened in the history of all creation.

I believe I have lived many lifetimes. It’s like a relay race-each life you try to move closer to your purpose, your truth-because ultimately, that will bring you closer to the source. The problem is, it is difficult to remember where you left off in the previous life.

There needs to exist a symbiotic relationship between your role and your spirit. It creates an infinite loop that ultimately allows the universe to flow directly through you.

The universe does not have a spoken language. It speaks to us through our instincts, our intuition, and in our health.

There is a spiritual (r)evolution happening inside of me.

We are a part of it all, and all of it is in everyone of us.

Underneath all of our madness-the billboards, deadlines, politics, identity theft, car alarms, traffic jams, busy signals, news alerts, and violence, there is only peace. It is as it was intended.

The future of reality TV….. You sitting in front of the television, watching yourself sitting in front of the television. Not much happens on that episode.

I found my spirituality in a little garden on the side of the road.

Flowers are ethereal ambassadors. Royalty…sent into this world from the next as a reminder.

The very thing that tormented me my entire life, became the very thing that set me free spiritually.

I used to live my life like it was a dress rehearsal. Then I discovered my spirit. Now it’s showtime.
