Beautiful and Courageous

July 6, 2011

Today, I am heading to funeral.  I have the honor of singing for a man who was a brilliant musician.  I wish I had had the opportunity to sit with him for years and learn all he knew–just a reminder that time is fleeting and the importance of seizing the moment.  Uncle Elroy will be [...]

The Discipline of Standing Nowhere

June 15, 2011

  “The discipline is not being attached to any patterns whatsoever, the discipline of standing nowhere.  That’s a very scary discipline.  It’s terrifying to stand on the edge that way, to have no definitions you can cling to: no reference groups, no identifications, no self-concepts, no models.  Will you dare do it?  Will you dare [...]

Compassion Creates Happiness

“If you want others to be happy, practice compassion. If you want to be happy, practice compassion.” Dalai Lama Such a simple instruction, isn’t it?  And yet, and yet…how often do we fail?  How often do I fail?

Intentional Moments

April 18, 2011

Silly Mind

February 10, 2011

You know that speech I was rehearsing the other night that was keeping me awake?  Well, I didn’t have to give it, and all resolved as I hoped—easily and quickly.  In fact, it was so easy that I began to question the resolution!  Silly mind. It occurred to me that on some level I want [...]

Mainstream consciousness is too constrictive.  Even the alternative options feel inauthentic and limiting. You yearn for change and realize that you must [...]
