Why is it that people seem to think that they need a teacher to teach them how to have a relationship with their creator. Spirituality, like breathing, is a natural function of who we are. We are all born with this ability of communion.

In such a hotly debated political world the Pope's comments are anything but peaceful. Pope Benedict XVI has insulted and pissed off over 22% of the population of the planet. Instead of apologizing, he arrogantly sits on his golden thrown firmly hanging onto his ego in an act of uncompromising pomposity. Is this the behavior of a man of peace?

Why do schools think that kids are somehow not human beings. Every school year is filled with silly rules, memos, meetings, mostly nonsense. What's with the Lab Lunch?

This ever changing world is one giant poker game among the world's top gamers. So what would happen if one inspired player decided to fold, pick up their chips and move on?

Consciousness is eternal. Our energy transmutes. Existence is not entirely linked to the physical body. We are all the Spirit Tree, linked through energy waves. Our compassion can raise consciousness by spinning our energy waves on the electromagnetic spectrum, changing our chemistry, raising our frequency, and thereby moving us towards Illumination.

Is the root of all suffering, the root of war desire or memory?

I've been away on vacation, and while I was off resting, the world seems to have gone crazier. It's Monday, the mail is piled up, the Middle East is blowing up, and while I was resting, the world has gone mad...business as usual.

What does it say about our elected officials when they vote themselves another pay raise while rejecting an increase in the minimum wage? What does it say about us if we let it stand?

There is a time for Peace, a time for War, and for Celebration. June is a time for Graduates and their Families to rejoice! Some folks feel that anytime is a good time to protest the war... I disagree! Every purpose has a time, but at all times Peace requires respect.

He paid $300,000 in connection with charges of Perjury, Misconduct and Major Ethics Violations. He was forced to step down as Speaker of the House, and now he might run for president. What is this country coming to?

What do a heartless right wing author and a terrorist have in common? 9-11 and hate.

The earth is like a basketball spinning endlessly through time and space. How do you see your self in this strange land? Have you always thought about taking your shot?

Memorial Day started in 1865 in Waterloo New York. Today we observed by watching the amazing Blue Angels, and remembering those who gave their lives in the service of our country.

No pay, no chance for advancement, and no pension. We spend 20 or so years of our lives working at a job that our government doesn't even recognize as a real job. We need legislation!
