http://withmewalk.blogspot.com/2009_01_01_archive.html
And the road is wide open. Thursday, January 29, 2009. I was recently asked to deliver a message for a conference at Asia Plateau. The subject was America, Obama and New Beginnings. It was part of a session entitled New Beginnings, which reflected the importance of a number of forward-looking events unfolding at the same time (Chinese New Year/Lunar New Year, New American President, Indian Republic Day, 1st Anniversary of Australian Sorry Day, etc.). It’s a new beginning and he opens it with hope&#...

And the road is wide open. Friday, June 27, 2008. Underneath the Mediterranean sun, he sank further into a quagmire of resentment and failure. The spring air floated over the stunning sea, but nothing could pull him from the bitterness he held towards the directors. He hated them and he was miserable for it. I’ve reached a few conclusions.

And the road is wide open. Friday, October 31, 2008. But it is the end of a long day, the last and most celebrated of Diwali. It started in Aundh, a booming neighborhood west of downtown. This morning started different. No jet lag and in Pune, not Mumbai. After meeting her a month ago in Panchgani, we had arranged to take the crew to meet Sister Lucy, a nun working with orphans and destitute women around Maharashtra. We piled back into a Sumo and cruised across Pune to find her there. The drive home memo...

http://withmewalk.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html
And the road is wide open. Monday, February 16, 2009. It's been a while since I last posted here and I thought I would give you a chance to decide for yourself what it was that kept me away. A) I finally gave into the pressure of my boosters and entered the rickshaw derby from Mumbai to Goa. B) I took on the ascetic lifestyle and gave up on computers and internet for two weeks. C) I ate too much food one night, suffered a severe case of delhi belly and laid in bed for half a month. F) All of the above.

Action Is Everything: July 2008
http://withmewalk.blogspot.com/2008_07_01_archive.html
And the road is wide open. Saturday, July 26, 2008. The Faces of Infinity. There’s a spirit that moves through some homes and families, some places and people. It’s a spirit that wraps others with gratitude, but moves without prentention. Those who have it, act like they don’t. It’s that kind of gift. The kind you don’t know you are giving. The gift that is who you are. Of course, what I had felt personally moved to a new level when I told Harmine that I had an old friend coming to town (“Ulla, fro...

And the road is wide open. Saturday, November 29, 2008. I've been moved by your many phone calls and queries about my safety in India. I'm many miles from there and feeling safe where I am in the south of India. What's happened in Mumbai is tragic. I ask that you keep the situation and those affected in your prayers.

And the road is wide open. Thursday, October 8, 2009. Shifting Sands: Ends and Beginnings. Action is Everything served it's purpose. When I set out back around the world in 2008, I wrote this:. Action is Everything seeks new ground. Not as bold in ambition. Not seeking to be the revelation of my first world journey. Instead, exploring. Reflecting. And a love letter to home. And those I wish to, with me, walk.". So as one door closes, a new one opens. I spoke with a dear friend of mine, Jeff, and he w...
