Love
Thanks
Gratitude
Ownership
Truth
Renewal
Each year I learn more about the truth surrounding the founding of America and the holiday we call “Thanksgiving.”
My eighth grade social studies book was titled,
“The History of the New World.”
This was not the “New World” to Native people. We sold their people, stole their land, brainwashed their children and have continued up to this year to break every treaty or agreement we have ever made.
The only thing that will make any difference is if we come to a place where we treat every person with dignity, grace and loving-kindness.
We stop denigrating others because they are different from us.
We recognize that when people do damage to others physically or verbally it is because they do not value themselves, are weak, fearful, insecure and afraid.
Let us take time to reflect, love, beg forgiveness and commit to a new way of being, now and always!
With all the love I know!
Namaste!
Now
Now is this second only. The past is gone and can only be learned from. The future is concepts, not experience. What can you do to experience the incredible number of things that have had to align in order for you to be here in this moment? ...
Igor
There is an angel-winged begonia next to my desk. From time to time, Igor has been eight feet wide and just as high. Now, about four by four. The delicacy of the clusters of flowers is absolutely stunning. The dark red leaf backs and green with white speckled fronts are ...
Beauty
Many old lines are grounded in the truth. For example, “Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.” What would it be like if we looked at everything that way? There would never be a “more” beautiful person. There would be “different,” not “better.” Who else, other than the advertisers, ...
Quiet
Imagine the place in the world where you experienced the greatest sense of tranquility. It could be a mountain, the ocean, a lake, a flower, trees, desert winds, the sound of rain on a tin roof, the purr of a well-tuned engine. Listen to it in your mind. What does ...
Today
Today is a gift. Are you above ground and breathing? Can you see that there is a choice about how you will be? What attitude will i bring to this day? What will i do that is constructive, useful? What kind of a day will i make for myself? ...
Enlightened Capitalism
The top 1% of the richest people in the United States own more than the bottom 90 percent combined. The rise of the top one percent of our society is the result of a lack of understanding of the phrase “Enlightened Capitalism.” That’s where the investors, the management, the workers ...
The Small Letter (i)
Of late, i have been experimenting with using the small letter i instead of capitalizing it. As i do that, it must be corrected each time it occurs because the computer wants it to be a capital I. Using the small i reminds me each and every time that i ...
EVERYTHING
Everything you see in other people, their strengths, courage and determination as well as their weaknesses, damage, fear and hatred reside within you. The capacity for all things resides within each of us. What will I water today? What will I nurture? How will I choose to be? ...
Water
There is an old expression, “You can lead a horse to water but you can’t make him drink.” First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Socialist. Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out—
Because ...
Dying
Why is the suicide rate among soldiers so high? Could it be that they were asked to do and did things beyond the scope of human reason? Or perhaps the human heart? Not one soldier or soldier’s family I know thinks war is a good idea ...

How is it you will be today?
Not what will you do.
Rather how will you be in the face of adversity, success, joy and loss?
Will you seek to see, touch, feel, smell and experience the miracle within which you live?
With or without you, can you not sense that it will be there just the same?

If you look into the eyes of a child (below is Jacob Howlett, Katie Abbott and Nigel Howlett’s son), you will not only see what real presence looks like, you will see the entire miracle that is ours.
In how many other places might you see miracle today?
