Want to Keep Promises? Stop Making Them by Roger Elmore
Promises. We make them every day without even thinking about it.

Living with Purpose by Kitty Holman
Purpose. It’s one of those lofty words that are used in motivational conferences, commencement address speeches, and places of worship. It is supposed to make us feel big, feel like individuals that are more than just the sum of our banal daily experiences. But what does it mean, precisely, to have a purpose? Are words…

Calming the Mind: Lessons from the Sea by Jacob Mojiwat
Spending time underwater changes your perspective on life. It may sound trite to say that it’s peaceful under the sea, or that diving to the depths brings me to my own inner depths, but it’s very true. Since I’ve been diving, I find I’ve become much more philosophical about certain things. I think that is…

Respect for Planet Earth by Alvina Lopez
We read about environmental issues nearly every day. We buy “eco-friendly” products from stores like Whole Foods or farmer’s markets. And we watch with fascination nature and wildlife adventure shows on television. We do all these things in an effort to be closer to nature, more in touch with the planet earth. But how much…

No You in Love by John Ptacek
Love is where you are not. It would bomb as a pick up line, but it’s a concept of love worth pondering. They are the words of Jiddu Krishnamurti, a renowned spiritual teacher who travelled the world in the twentieth century extolling the merits of self-inquiry. At first the statement comes across like one of…

Eating vs. Eating Well by Amber O’Connell
Eating. You’d think it would be, should be, such a simple thing. But oh, how difficult it can be. The analyzing, over-analyzing, the under-analyzing followed up by guilt. One simple meal can turn into a stressful affair in no time. I’ve had my share of moments (or rather days and weeks on end) when eating was too complicated…

WORRY AND ANXIETY It is in our human natures to worry and be filled with anxiety especially when it concerns such things as our children, our income or our health. The trick is not to worry excessively. One should rather think first, assess, then act. Adjust your way of living as need demands, changing things if one can, but then,…

A Greater And Higher Reality by Robert Gresak
We accept the familiar and the usual. We are comfortable and “at home” with it. Anything that threatens the stability of our three dimensional world causes us untold anxiety. Anything that may lead to the shattering of the usual, the familiar, brings fear and worry. We are very comfortable with our certainty. Strangely, even the…
