  • The Trees of Life

    The Trees of Life
    Feb 22 2025
    Comparative analysis serves a purpose philosophically as we examine this thing called life. For example, let's consider the trees that surround us, what we often take for granted in our Earthly realm. Let's look deeper. Join us for an exploration and perhaps an explanation about how to survive an often brutal environment. How does the delicate weeping willow withstand the onslaught when the sturdy, stoic oak cracks & snaps? A subject worthy of our thoughtful consideration.

    The Greater Sea Beckons - A Siren Song
    Feb 8 2025
    Predisposed as we are, rightfully conditioned to live in the physical world, it is the metaphysical path to enlightenment which proves to be the longest journey with the greatest reward. Kahlil Gibran's prophecy is worthy of study and interpretation, a feat we'll attempt to achieve during this episode.

    The best way to make our way through life is to love actively, to cultivate kindness at every turn. With the use of a simple but very timely metaphor, we will discuss the value of extending a helping hand to the helpless. It matters.

  • Resolving Inner Conflict

    Resolving Inner Conflict
    Jan 18 2025
    Human beings have a distinct tendency to internalize our angst, issues we don't discuss beyond our own thought process, afraid others won't comprehend what we can barely understand or even articulate. Our mind becomes a maelstrom of troubled thoughts, a predicament which isn't unique at all. In fact, it's a very common condition we all share and there's a remedy for the dis/ease we so often suffer in silence. Join us for an illuminating conversation.

  • Good Grief... Whats so good about it

    Good Grief... Whats so good about it
    Dec 21 2024
    Human beings are sentimental, emotional creatures who most grieve our loved ones lost during the holidays. The empty seat at the table is a stark reminder of a glaring absence. Acknowledge them. Include them. Welcome them home to their own family gathering. We shed tears for a reason. Let them flow. The pain comes in choking them back so let them flow like the river of life. Don't drown in quiet despair. Celebrate the Season of Light together.

  • Could You Repeat That Please?

    Could You Repeat That Please?
    Dec 14 2024
    A follow-up to last week's show,
    "I Heard You the First Time!", Jeff Turner will join me to discuss the premise of that presentation. The subject being the redundancy of prayer (and meditation or other forms of Universal connection), we will explore the process and the reason why we feel compelled to ask (or beg) the same question over and over again. Is it an act of desperation or indicative of doubt or is it something else entirely? Jeff's personal background as a pastor gives him a rather unique perspective. He will share his own interpretation of the practice -- no doubt about it.

  • I Heard You the First Time - The Redundancy of Prayer

    I Heard You the First Time - The Redundancy of Prayer
    Dec 7 2024
    If our faith is strong, why would we assume the existence of a benevolent deity who doesn't even listen to us? Human beings learn through repetition, so perhaps the practice of prayer is merely an acknowledgement, a connection with the Universal One for our own benefit, regardless of the request already made. Maybe a prayer whispered reverberates throughout the Cosmos like a symphony, lighting the stars. Let's examine the purpose and reason for practicing the presence with the sacred ritual of prayer. "God willing" is a common phrase, so often uttered without a thought of what it means, yet we speak it as a quick little quip in response to how we hope a circumstance will be resolved, placing it in God's hands, but our participation is a part of the resolution because we said so, connecting the event with a divine intention, or a request for intervention.

  • Dare to Believe in Miracles

    Dare to Believe in Miracles
    Nov 23 2024
    There are moments in life that force us to reconsider life as we know it, moments that teach us to look deeper, feel more and trust in something out there on our side, if only we acknowledge existence is more than meets the eye. Watch for the messages, omens and even the occasional miracle to manifest when we least expect it. Life is a magical journey. Buckle up and enjoy the ride, especially when prayers are answered!
