We learn to live in lack We convince ourselves that more is better We forget to realize that more will never be enough We run in circles tirelessly searching for something that we can never truly find We leave behind the child that could be amazed by a single blade of grass We’re taught toContinue reading “The Game”

At times, it just feels like a battle. I fight and withstand what later appears to be nothing but the making of my own hands. There’s warfare in my mind, making my whole world go blind. I detest the words that serve no purpose, yet allow the reoccurrence to form again like a current. IContinue reading “The Self Prisoner”

For as long as I can remember, there has been a peculiar utterance that I could only discern as being in the back of my mind. For most of my childhood and adolescence, it took a backseat, observing all I did. I by no means associated myself with it, but to some degree it wasContinue reading “The Cultivation of Awareness as a Gateway to Freedom”

Although fortunately for all other species, they are not capable of experiencing a way of being outside of their instinctive andContinue reading “Wholeness: The Way of Being”

At times we expect it and so we accept it, while when we can’t see it coming we tend to reject it, that “it” being change of course.

In its passive form, change is unavoidableContinue reading “Change: The Inevitable Life Force”

I have come to the awareness that I exist, that I am aware over my own consciousness as well as this ever-present experience. I state this to simply say as Descartes put so eloquently, “I think, therefore I am,” which is fitting to suggest that an individuals awareness of life validates existence in itself. So,Continue reading “A Step Into Existence”
