Why are we called the human race? Are we humans in a race? A race to survive for a lack of wisdom to stop and see each other in need of a caring embrace? So there is a race with wonderful achievements even conquering space testimony to our ability to question and create Togetherness makes…
Kill the snake?
I don’t know. I simply don’t know. Too many things I have been certain of have become illogical and childish now. Now I can only question and wonder and seek a way to be my own true self and live with responsibility. The snake and the dragon, one real, one imagined… beautiful, dangerous creatures for…
Conveyor belt Christianity
They do not know they cannot see the ones who work this dusty machinery to them it is their call to ministry Call this their home then make them a clone full of doctrine and knowledge and ritual and garbage Tell them this is a family where they can belong as long as they go…
The Emperor’s clothes
Comparisons and Contradictions Paradigms and Paradoxes Irony and Incongruency Metaphors and Relativity Conscience and Consciousness I’ve been trapped in the realm of linearity of one-dimensional dogmatism Where the dogs are vicious they growl and bite they also want to get out of this prison this lesser than smallest non-space of gruelling greyness false hope daily…

Love is not a fairy tale, it is a myth
Love is whatever we make of it. We get to define it. We have to decide it, define it, imagine it, create it, live it. If we don’t do these things, love will not exist. This is something I’ve written that kind of explains, to myself, my own perplexing journey in search of romantic love….

I recently read a book by Dr Philip Maffetone: “The Endurance Handbook”. It is a marvellous book. Whether you consider yourself an endurance athlete or not, I recommend it. If you have a body and you are alive, you are enrolled on the greatest endurance event there is. It is called life and life can…
Blissful surrender
We can try to make sense of our own path in life from many different perspectives. We are complex beings who live complex lives interwoven with each other’s and the other life forms all around us. Who can understand or make sense of it all? I think it is a worthwhile pursuit for each and…
Surrender
Learning to let go can take a lifetime, maybe more. Learning to flow with life and it’s rhythms can take a lifetime, maybe more. Learning to make magic out of what can so easily become mundane can take years. Life is difficult and marvellous, full of frustration and paradoxes. There are also moments of bliss…
