"The two of us, as partners, have created a life where we are both fully present for our son, to the best of our abilities. We chose to co-create him out of love; we chose to stay at home the first few months to adapt to the new lifestyle; we choose to split the chores and responsibilities equitably; we choose to raise our son together. The evolving ... Continue Reading >>

Eaney… Meaney… Mieney… Mortality
These are interesting times! Without precedent and the accompanying pre-packaged, well-practised, habituated responses, we are faced with mindfully choosing the behaviours which we think will best serve our interests and those of others we care about. In truth, we are now in a time when those ‘others’ must include any and all with whom we may come in ... Continue Reading >>
Yuval Noah Harari: We become what we think about
No matter what the moment presents, we are faced with deciding how it's going to go. Either (A) we allow the moment to become the context for our decisions, or (B) we expand the context of who/what we are from within which we make choices that redefine the moment.

Our ability to ... Continue Reading >>

As far back as I can recall, my curiosities have often proven to be deeply annoying to many of those around me. Over time, if that changed at all, it was with an increasing perturbation of the murky waters of the status quo. I wanted to see what was under the surface… to see what littered the bottom that might trip us up should we choose to attempt to stand ... Continue Reading >>
Tenets of a Life Well Lived
I believe we live in a Sea of Intelligence; that wholeness is our essential Nature; that reality unfolds as required to lead us back to ourSelves. I believe that the greater the upheaval, the greater our need to pause... and consider: who have we been that brought us to this place? And who else must we become to create anew? ...

Challenges
Our greatest challenge is never the one we think we’re facing – it’s always in the way we’re facing it. ... Continue Reading >>
No Filters
I like being at this place in my life. I no longer seek permission, full in the realization that I already am that permission, for myself. Finally, on the cusp of the curve of final release, I am without filters. Although often highly selective about doing so, I find myself very fortunate to continue to be invited into the lives of the amazing (and ... Continue Reading >>
