Come what may, whatever tomorrow may bring, we need to deal with it and move on! The world is in pieces and we can not change it or fix it with the same thinking that got us here. Greed and Selfishness will not be tolerated moving forward. The truth will be first and foremost the determining factor on every decision and petty bullshit will not be tolerated. Stupidity and ignorance - willful or otherwise will be called out and not be allowed to continue. We are all in this together the Social Compact must be adhered to and practiced and encouraged if we are to survive and evolve beyond this moment in time. "Some of us think holding on makes us strong; but sometimes it is letting go." ~ Hermann Hesse There is a lot of misinformation out there. Conspiracy theories are running rampant. Fake news, disinformation, social media is inundated and saturated with memes and cartoons depicting gallows humor a person doesn't know what to believe - so we cower in our c

"Man is lost and is wandering in a jungle where real values have no meaning. Real values can have meaning to man only when he steps on to the spiritual path, a path where negative emotions have no use." ~ Sai Baba We value what we understand. Understanding takes effort, interest, and intent. To understand we need to care. Caring, compassion, peace are virtues. Virtue defines and expresses who you are. Your values determine where you want to be and who you want to be with. That is why shared values are the connective tissue that binds a community together and encourages a state and a feeling of unity. Without shared values, we are just a group of individuals.  The virtues that you choose to practice and guide you to support you and exemplify your character. No virtue. No values. No understanding. No empathy. No love. No peace. No order. No growth. We get to decide who we are and what we want to be. Do we just accept the status quo and what is and not tr

FOR-PROFIT AND DIVIDENDS "Those who do not hate their own selfishness and regard themselves as more important than the rest of the world are blind because the truth lies elsewhere" ~ Blaise Pascal I was recently diagnosed as having Type 2 Diabetes. I went to the Dr. for a regular check-up to get a physical. Pretty routine stuff. He scheduled me to get labs done. I hadn't seen him in a couple years. So it made sense. Saved time so he had the baseline numbers PSA etc.. to work with. Turns out my blood sugar was through the roof - 15 when 5-6.5 A1C is an acceptable number. He said we would treat it with meds first then pursue getting the number done with diet. I thought ok. It was all new to me. I did not even realize that I was looking at diabetes until I asked him what was going on. Later after doing some research, I realized that the Dr. did not even mention exercise or what foods I should eat or other options as far as medication. I did n

Just because you think, it is so, or just, does not make it so. You may be wrong. I know it is hard to believe right. What else could you be wrong about, who knows. Since you believe it, it must be so. That is called conformational bias. We all suffer from it. We all want to be right, but because the ego must always be right so must we. If we think we know everything how will we ever learn? We are entitled to our own opinion, as the saying goes, but not to our facts. The facts are the facts. We must keep an open mind and not run everything through the filter of our experience alone. We must try not to interpret everything and assign it a fixed meaning. We must approach everything from all sides, put ourselves in the place or space, and do our best to apply reason and logic whilst we trust our intuition. If we are able not to blame, shame, admonish or praise we are better able to see things as they truly are. Our life is shaped by our mind, for we become wh

MASS CONFUSION INSIDE YOUR HEAD “the worst lies are the ones we tell ourselves.” The ego’s goal is to persuade us to believe things that are patently false, untrue, to create a distorted reality so that it can protect us. To bend and warp what we think we know and believe is its way of keeping us where it wants us – unsure, on edge, enmeshed in self-doubt. Men will exaggerate thousands of things. Collectively we misremember most events that we experience as if the odds were always in our favor. We reconfigure and reconstruct and hyperbolically color and edit and embellish.  Everyone loves a good story. That does mean we live a good one. Nostalgia takes us back and fills us with a feeling of how - perhaps we wished we felt. In actuality, the truth is hidden in a reality that we may not want to process or accept. Hindsight is 20/20 through rose-colored spectacles but there are shades of grey that we don’t see because we may not be able to come to terms with
