I’m feeling the push-pull between frustration and disappointment that my life isn’t evolving the way I’d hoped—and the pull to keep going in the direction of the pull. Which, as I’m writing this, I realize keeps changing. When I sat down to write this week’s missive, I noticed I’m becoming Read more
Here’s something different… I’m in a good mood. It’s a curious thing, too, because I just got home from being with family in San Francisco yesterday, and today I had to go to work. I went from sweatshirts to sweating. It is really hot here in Pittsburgh and I was Read more
Q. I’m tired, I’m cold. I don’t feel like exercising or walking. I want to sleep. This video I’m watching is making me frustrated. I got nuthin. What does the “U” have? What should I be asking? A. There are no shoulds in Universal speak. You do something or you Read more

Sooo, as I am wont to do, last night while journaling, I started to spiral… down. Does anyone spiral up? And, once I start going down… I go way down. I ended up listing all my frustrations, exaggerating them to the point where I even surprised myself at how terrible Read more
I walked into my apartment today, after going out to pick up something for lunch, and at the same time said to myself I hate my life, and I love my life. Like both thoughts at once! Now, I know I’m a Gemini but that’s a little crazy even to Read more
This week has been one of surprises—ones that shook me to my core. First, on Monday, a lifelong friend, Peter, reached out for my thoughts on something, asking for guidance. A welcome, albeit unexpected surprise. And then, again completely unexpected, on Tuesday, an email from Mike Dooley’s TUT.com website letting Read more
As a writer, there’s this thing called writer’s block. It’s where you know you have to write something, but nothing’s coming to you. I have much experience with this. In fact, the 2nd channeled book I’m working on has faced a lot of blockages. The first book, Back to Being, Read more
