You may not know
the answers you seek.
You may not live
from your heart out.
But you do know
that you wish to be happy
and you know
self-honesty and self-being
are your ways.
Wish to know
your hidden spirit.
Wish to live
your heart calling.
Then you will be
who you must be.
Then you will live
you for others.
On This Coming Day
Each day we strive for self and home
to make our lives complete.
But on one day, a coming day,
our hearts for others beat.
It is a day we know as Christmas
that we wish happiness for others.
As this day comes we act from love
and think and do, one for another.
And if once a year we can do so much
what about the remaining days?
Could we not do one for all
and give each other praise?
On this coming day, this day of hope
I wish each of you happiness
for each day you live this coming year
and I wish for you to be blessed.
Doing Your Work Is Becoming You
Becoming who you know you are and want to be is not something that happens with the flick of a light switch and “Ta-Da, here I am.” It involves daily work (sometimes every single minute) and must have intention and determination.
It is the work itself that is the journey, the person you intend to be.
And how you carry out that work shows who you are becoming and who you intend to be.

We get busy living our lives and doing and gaining those things that we believe we must do and get. Yet buried beneath the busyness lies our spirit heart, the quiet beating of our higher self that waits to be called and listened to.
I attained the things in life that were important to me as a young man: marriage and kids, a good career that ultimately allowed me to retire in comfort, and the possession of things I “needed” to make my life comfortable and accepted.
I had done everything right on the outside but had forgotten to pay attention to the inside.

I recently wrote about how we need to have the determination to pursue our intentions, otherwise, we may get easily sidetracked by any number of things, good and harmful.
Here are some things that I’m doing. Perhaps they’ll help you on your journey as well.

Have you ever climbed a mountain or even the local ski hill just to get away and think? About what you’re doing with yourself, whether it be your job, your family, school, or even about the meaning of life (whatever that means to you)?
Now, I come by mountain climbing naturally having been raised in the mountains and accustomed to having a mountain to climb outside my back door. This was the perfect opportunity for a teenage boy to take the dogs for a hike, hang your feet over a cliff, and view the distant highway, wondering where everyone was going and how important was it that they got there.

The Coming Season Of Thanksgiving
An endless season starts.
We all feel it’s demands.
No one an island
as the season grips us all.
Not all who begin
will see it close.
For reasons unknown
it swoops erratically.
Within the brackets of this time
humanity is afraid.
Exposed, vulnerable, and screaming
at this season of fear that invades.
Our new bravery
demands we say, “We’re fine,
illness cannot happen here.”
…and then it does.
This season will cost much
but raise hope
until, together again,
we enter the season of thanksgiving.
We Are Responsible For The Place We Live And For Making It Better
At no other time has being responsible for the place we live been more important. In this time of a worldwide pandemic, we must take care of our little corners of the world – our communities.
We’re told to self-isolate and meet only in very small groups. Great advice, even when it includes your family. We will get through this but we must get through it together.
