Derrick's Spiritual Journey. Finding my path to spiritual enlightenment. Monthly Archives: February 2014. February 28, 2014. This week’s blog post will be completely off topic. I’ve been tasked with a short book review of Nahlah Ayed’s A Thousand Farewells. As much as I’d like to somehow tie this book into the central theme of my blog, it doesn’t appear to be possible. The Arab proverbs at the beginning of each chapter were a nice touch. It would have been nice if she would have included a picture of a s...

Derrick's Spiritual Journey. Finding my path to spiritual enlightenment. The Old Guy in CreCom. April 25, 2014. Deciding to go back to school at the age of 33 wasn’t easy. But I had grown up. All around me friends had established themselves with degrees, mortgages, families and commitments. One day I was sitting at my desk at work staring at the clock, trying to mentally force the minutes to pass by faster. Just another day at the office, working a mundane job with no opportunity for advancement....There...

Derrick's Spiritual Journey. Finding my path to spiritual enlightenment. The End Is Nigh. February 21, 2014. I try not to think about dying. Especially considering it’s not something I plan on doing for a very long time. Regardless, I think it’s natural for us a human beings to periodically ponder our own mortality. I learned that once he feels his work at the studio is complete, Chaligne plans on developing a project that will help fill a void in the medical system. His goal is to open a centre excl...

Quote The Raven……wait a minute, ravens can talk? | Derrick's Spiritual Journey

Derrick's Spiritual Journey. Finding my path to spiritual enlightenment. Quote The Raven……wait a minute, ravens can talk? April 4, 2014. I’m one of those people who surrounds himself with meaningful quotes. Anything I find that inspires me gets printed out and hung up somewhere around the house. Even though some of these sayings are older than I am, and pale in comparison to some of the more inspirational quotes you’ll see from people like Ghandi or the Dalai Lama, they never really lose their luster.

Victor & Sargent & Me | Derrick's Spiritual Journey
https://derricksspiritualjourney.wordpress.com/2014/03/06/victor-sargent-me
Derrick's Spiritual Journey. Finding my path to spiritual enlightenment. Victor and Sargent & Me. March 6, 2014. For the second week in a row my blog post has to be school related. The storyline was compelling. Afterwards, I found out the play was originally called Victor and Sargent. Patterson was encouraged to include her story into the play to give it added context and I’m glad she did. I’m not sure the production would have been nearly as interesting without her character being the focal ...It’s fair...

https://derricksspiritualjourney.wordpress.com/2014/04/11/captain-springtime
Derrick's Spiritual Journey. Finding my path to spiritual enlightenment. April 11, 2014. Unfortunately, I haven’t had a lot of time to fill my blog post with insightful thoughts this week. I’ve been hard at work editing my first video, which I’ve posted below. Let me know what you think. It’s ridiculous, but the fact that I’m capable of doing something like this kinda blows me away. I had zero editing skills 3 months ago. Newer post →. 5 thoughts on “ Captain Springtime. April 11, 2014. April 11, 2014.

The Power of One | Derrick's Spiritual Journey
https://derricksspiritualjourney.wordpress.com/2014/03/14/the-power-of-one
Derrick's Spiritual Journey. Finding my path to spiritual enlightenment. The Power of One. March 14, 2014. What if the world woke up one day with amnesia? What do you think it would look like? Would our initial instinct be to cooperate with our neighbor, or would we feel the need to dominate them? Would we look for ways to help our community grow as one, or concentrate solely on improving life for ourselves, even if it came at the expense of others? Would we lead with our hearts or judge with our minds?

Do Mean People Know They Suck? | Derrick's Spiritual Journey
https://derricksspiritualjourney.wordpress.com/2014/09/19/do-mean-people-know-they-suck
Derrick's Spiritual Journey. Finding my path to spiritual enlightenment. Do Mean People Know They Suck? September 19, 2014. Becoming a mean and miserable person is a gradual process. Think about it like gaining weight. No one goes to bed skinny only to wake up fat the next morning. The pounds slowly creep on over the weeks and months, until one day you look in the mirror, and realize there’s a whole lot more of you then there used to be. The same scenario is applicable to mean people. That’s when they go...
