What if I am Just Not Feeling It?

This post contains affiliate banner links. For more info, see my disclosures.   I’m doing all that I can, but I am just not feeling it. For more than four-and-a-half years, I have written about Positivity here, every week, without fail.  Over the past week a number of happenings have left me feeling mostly angry, sad, and not positive. A madman shot up a synagogue, and the unsympathetic President blamed the victims.  Another madman sent out bombs to prominent opponents

Life is Energy

Life is energy, and energy is life. When we lose people dear to us, their energy has not gone…it has been transmuted back to the Universe. We will miss the people we care about when they leave us.  Their energy may be gone from our lives, but it is not truly gone.  Energy can never be created nor destroyed, just transformed into a new form. As I am sitting at my desk writing this, I am witnessing the sun rising

How Does Loss Effect You?

Loss is a part of Pathwalking. Because life is ever changing, and because we are not static creatures, we will experience losses along our paths.  Some are good for us, some less so.  The hardest loss to take is that of a friend or loved one. When we lose people, grief is different for every one of us.  In a society where we often look at the “norms”, how we grieve is one of those things that no two people

Hindsight is not always twenty-twenty. We often look to the past, look to what has come before, and we think we see it in perfect clarity, now, after all that has occurred. But in truth, more often than we probably realize, hindsight gets colored by nostalgia, by wistfulness, by a sense that it was oh-so-good and can’t ever be that good again, but it really should be. The past is past. Period. What was is done, gone, and no more.

Energy is the root of everything. Everything you can see, touch and experience begins with energy. That is what we are at our ultimate core; this is what everything in the universe begins with. Because of this fact, energy can be neither created nor destroyed, it simply changes form. Some forms are visible, some are not. Energy can be transmuted and manipulated to achieve different things at various times, but is always present. Science explains the universe in this manner.

What am I afraid of? How come I constantly find myself uncertain, unsure and lost? Why can’t I break out of this pattern? I know how this goes, and yet I still find that I cannot get out of my own way. I am afraid I will disappoint. I am afraid of disapproval. I am afraid of letting people down. I am afraid to succeed. I am afraid to fail. Fear is the loudest message being broadcast to us. Every

How do your beliefs effect the paths you are walking? Short answer – considerably. Long answer – what do you believe? First and foremost, this has NOTHING to do with religious, faith or spiritual beliefs. This is all about the specific beliefs we hold when it comes to ourselves, our lives, and our understanding of how the Universe works. What we believe is often tied into what we think we do and don’t know, and how we are feeling. Unfortunately,

Why have you chosen the path you are on? Whether or not you are consciously Pathwalking, why have you chosen whatever path you are on? This is a surprisingly important question that all-too-often gets waylaid. We know there are paths we want to walk in life, but why do we want to walk them? Pathwalking is about choosing your own destiny. It is about taking control over your life and finding what makes you happy. Because, when all is said

Today is my birthday. My birthday is my personal New Year’s Day. So what? What does that have to do with Pathwalking? If this is the start of a new year, then it is the perfect opportunity to set new actions to take. I have written before that I do not believe in New Year’s resolutions, but rather New Year’s actions. Resolving is a passive concept, while taking action is direct. It is through one of my first new year’s

Do you have a tendency to second-guess yourself? I do. It has often been, as far as I can tell, one of the main causes of my indecisive moments. I make a decision, sure…but then I second guess it. Pathwalking is about choosing a path and making your own way. I have the idea, I have the notion I know what I want to do with the given path. But…but what if I have it all wrong? It was recently
