Nudges and Hints
Have you experienced the ennui and laziness that seems to envelop one at times, eroding one’s intentions and diminishing one’s focus of what really matters? I certainly have. I try to shake out of it by setting my intentions before I go to sleep, but as an insomniac I treasure my sleep when I manage to get it. Waking up at 5 a.m. when you have tossed and turned until 2 in order to meditate is…

The Schism
As politics drives us further and further apart a void is forming between the intractable opposing sides. What will fill it? Isn’t it time for a third or fourth political party to form in this country of divisiveness? There is a swathe of people whose views are moderate and at each opposing end, the extremes to the left and to the right of Republican and Democratic parties. President Biden…

The Destruction of Mars
The Destruction of Mars
I have been driven to write this post, it is stranger than any information I have received or have been compelled to write. A few days ago I started doing a watercolor of a picture I had seen of the Martian surface. Unfortunately the painting morphed into something quite unexpected and what would have been an interesting color palette of pinks became filled with red spheres, and the resulting…

What was THAT?!
We sat around a fire with friends on Saturday night, toasting marshmallows and looking at the stars; Mars shining brightly behind us, the moon growing in girth and luminosity in preparation for Halloween. I saw a fast-moving light and wondered idly if it was a satellite.
“No,” said our neighbor. “It’s not high enough, also, it isn’t moving fast enough.”
“Perhaps it is a meteor,” his…

Love in the Time of Covid-19
Panic fatigue is setting in.
I have noticed fewer posts on Facebook about the pandemic, but there are still some die-hards who refuse to acknowledge that it is really happening. We’re already tired and worn out, our bodies cannot deal with the constant influx of stress hormones. We want to shut out the world, the news, the hype.
But Lo!
What light in yonder window breaks?
It is #KevinLove, an…

Only Fear Holds you Back
Only Fear Holds you Back
I have been spending a lot of time reading various spiritual books which have been greatly inspiring, but after some considered objective analysis the question remains: what if you don’t believe in something?
Why do we need to believe in anything?
Belief requires no proof. It only requires blind faith.
Religions are set in stone when followers begin to lay down rules and…

Near Death Experiences
I love reading about near death experiences and I marvel how many people returning to their bodies share similar experiences. However, there are some who have quite frightening, disturbing or unsettling experiences, such as a friend of mine who seemed to travel through a region or dimension where she saw great suffering, people screaming in anguish and this cause a great deal of distress to her.

Get stuck?

Crisis of Faith, New Insights
Crisis of Faith, New Insights
I recently experienced a brief few hours when I began to doubt everything I believed in.
This is not unusual, especially when a disaster, a loss or an unimaginably difficult situation rears its head.
I do not believe in a God that exists outside of me, I don’t believe in the concept of a “god”. I don’t believe in religion or even much of the New Age beliefs since they all devolve into…

A Rumination on Euthanasia and Faith
A Rumination on Euthanasia and Faith
“The whole conception of “Sin” is one which I find very puzzling, doubtless owing to my sinful nature. If “Sin” consisted in causing needless suffering, I could understand; but on the contrary, sin often consists in avoiding needless suffering. Some years ago, in the English House of Lords, a bill was introduced to legalize euthanasia in cases of painful and incurable disease. The patient’s…

Magnetic Pole Reversal and Edgar Cayce's Predictions
Magnetic Pole Reversal and Edgar Cayce’s Predictions
Edgar Cayce, America’s best known Christian mystic and prophet, predicted that the Earth’s magnetic poles would begin shifting in the 1990’s. Scientists have discovered that this occurs roughly every 700,000 years.
Seismic events such as the massive earthquake in Chile (the strongest quake ever recorded was in 1960) as well as subsequent major tremblers on the Pacific Ring of Fire , including the…

Physical Death and the Personality
Physical Death and the Personality
The recent passing of my mother has left me pondering many aspects of the soul.
It is often difficult to distinguish between the meaning of soul and spirit.
Essentially, the soul is the part of the human experience that allows for mental abilities, emotions, the ability to reason and above all character. We know people according to the character they have, how they interact, love, laugh…

Slay Medusa
Eyes wide open
Darkness is a womb
A struggle to emerge
beyond thralling thoughts
Stretch your arms out wide
Ride to the outer limits of the darkness
and feel yourself fly
beyond the stars, the galaxies, the universes
you are free
and the snakes writhe and tremble
your mind striking down
each memory
that haunts you
does not define you
Swing the axe boldly
slay each one precisely
at the neck

Frida Kahlo: Appearances Can Be Deceiving, at @brooklynmuseum. All photos by Julia Chesky.
A number of films and TV shows have taken on the Colombian drug cartels, including Netflix’s hit Pablo Escobar series Narcos and the recent Tom Cruise action movie American Made. But the new Spanish-language drama Birds of Passage, directed by Ciro Guerra and Cristina Gallego, is the rare project to show us the illegal drug trade of the 1960s and ’70s from the perspective of an indigenous Colombian tribe impacted by it. Film critic Justin Chang says, “Although it runs a swift, tightly plotted two hours, Birds of Passage is genuinely epic in scope.”
