Wednesday, October 1, 2014. Tales From the Labyrinth—Endings (Completion and Rebirth). The Straight and Narrow of One Eternal Round. My way of changing the subject until I am really ready to go there. I know, as well as anyone, that running away from our Dharma can have weighty consequences. When prompted to. As she landed near my feet),. My desire to snap a picture, without disturbing her faded quickly with a flush of sadness, when I realized that she had likely reached the end of a glorious journey, on...

Syliloquies: February 2015
http://syliloquies.blogspot.com/2015_02_01_archive.html
Saturday, February 14, 2015. One Step Forward, Two Steps Back. My sister said lately that she felt like she was taking one step forward and two steps back. Recently, I've been integrating a 7-month old puppy (Nala) with my older, high-strung Belgian Mallinois, Bailey. Given my current doggie-oddesy, I seem to have relationship harmony (and disharmony) on my mind. In fact, this entire 2015 is turning out to be a series of relationship themes streaming though every aspect of my life. I thought of the four ...

Wednesday, May 21, 2014. Like Sunlight and Oxygen (from my personal history). This coming new moon on June 27th will be four years since the passing of a dear, dear friend. When It comes to those we love, who love us back and seem to leave this life too soon, time does not fly. It passes oh-so slow. But rather than miss him in slow-motion today, I am choosing to focus on one small moment from his life. Sharing this post for his many Bodhi Yoga friends and clients. He called out a name and a conservativel...

Saturday, December 13, 2014. Four Corners of the Soul. Of course I've been thinking about the Christmas Spirit of late, but not in the way other's may assume. The holidays used to be such an extraordinary time of year. I don't need to reminisce, to show what I mean, so I won't. Recall, is another time in my life, a time when I was feeling vulnerable, healing hurts,. Waking-up and getting centered. I heard his soft foot-stomp down the hall to me, where he asked:. Who was this boy! Through the practice of ...

Sunday, January 19, 2014. The Art of Handfuls and Pinches. So many words are usually here on my blog. Yet for the most part, at my heart, I am a listener, a people watcher, a lover of meditation and observance. Others may think not. But for me it is the silenced quiets that I love most and personal contentment (for myself and loved ones), my passion. One of those places where this meditative space opens an engaged watching. Is in the simultaneously busy and peaceful space I call my Sattvic kitchen. Just ...

Sunday, July 27, 2014. Tales from the Labyrinth—Beginnings. I learned a bit more, to cherish the prosperous heart and keep cleaner-clearer perspectives within some of my greatest challenges. Simply put a Labyrinth is a metaphor for. The one we all must walk in life, full of twists and turns. Just when we think we’ve got it down, it throws us a curve and we find ourself headed in an entirely different direction than we had. Originally planned, or so we think. I believe it is no mistake that a Labyrinth re...

Sunday, August 17, 2014. Tales From the Labyrinth—Middles. 8220;Are We THERE Yet? This Labyrinth of mine. It’s quite something. I’ve patterned her after the Labyrinth found in the Chartres Cathedral, just outside Paris. Date back over 5000 years, this particular style was first used during the time of the crusades between 1095 and 1201 A.D. The crusades were a time when there was an intense struggle for control of the Holy Land. Yes, this path in my back yard is. I believe it is advanced work,. Last week...

Friday, October 25, 2013. Where "Better-than" is the Benchmark. You may not know it, but I live in a little corner of heaven on earth. A town, that is right in the heart of “happy valley”. I was born and grew up here, so naturally, I would want to raise my son here. This place is beautiful, stunning scenery, amazing seasons, well educated and well-placed in the sight of God. We really wouldn’t have it any other way. A natural people-watcher, I have seen him work his way though his pre-college school year...

Thursday, March 28, 2013. Between Certainty and Sanctification. The most frightening thing to me in this life is not whether a person will live or die. The scariest thing I have witnessed, is another human who is past feeling empathy for a friend, a family member, a fellow human being; the person who may see things differently than them. I felt a well of faith in me rise to hear words of comfort. I know how to open myself to real healing, energetically, and could feel the divine channels of connectio...
