Life is Absurd

Life is absurd. Recognizing the overall absurdity of life helps with understanding this. Do you ever pause and look at the world way outside of yourself and think, isn’t this bizarre –or-wtaf? People get all in a tizzy about variations in skin color, choices in lovers, which god/gods/goddesses to worship or not, invisible borders, civility, and basic human decency. It is just so crazy, so illogical, so…absurd. Then perhaps you look a little less far afield. The sun and clouds,

Nobody Can Be “On” All the Time

Nobody Can Be “On” All the Time Even when you are walking your chosen path, this includes you. Working on walking your own path in this life takes time and energy. A lot goes into the necessary mindfulness and positivity required to consciously create your reality. But for all that work, and with all the time and energy invested, you still need to take breaks and pause along the way. I know some people who seem to only ever have

Am I Being True to Myself?

Am I being True to Myself? How does that even work, and what does it mean? For the second time, I am listening to Steven Pressfield’s The War of Art: Break Through the Blocks & Win Your Inner Creative Battles. This is a most outstanding analysis of the writing process, and facing off against what Mr. Pressfield calls “Resistance.” What is resistance in this form? Resistance is the intangible something that whispers in your ear and gets in your way

What Does Your End Result Look Like?

What Does Your End Result Look Like? Finding sufficient balance of clarity and detail to manifest your reality. When you start down a path in life, it is usually done with an end goal in sight. But do you know what that end goal looks like? This can be a slippery slope because while detail counts, too much detail denies the Universe its power to present you with what you desire. Let me put a few things out there in

Who Controls Your Fate?

You are not a victim of fate. Just because you were born into a certain circumstance, raised in a given environment, got the education that you did, and hold the job you hold, you are not trapped. Fate is not written in stone. You have the power to change your fate. People tend to want to believe in fate because it means that they have a purpose. Fate means there has to be a reason, and purpose, to living your

The Philosophy of Pathwalking

I would like to explore with you the details of my personal life philosophy – Pathwalking. When I first began to write about this idea, it was just meant to be a weekly post to my blog. I needed a topic, so I decided to begin to write about how I seek to make my own way in life. The name Pathwalking came about for two reasons. First, because of the idea that life is an ongoing journey, so you

Who Are You Trying to Impress?

I have spent a great deal of my life working to live up to the expectations of others. Some of this has been in my real day-to-day life, while some has been in my hobby life. In either case, the notion that I needed to impress person ‘x’ or group ‘y’ would dominate

What Control Do You Have?

This post contains affiliate banner links. For more info, see my disclosures.   You can take control by giving up control. One of the most dominant messages of society is control. There are any number of examples of this you can look to. Control over immigration; shifting control of industries away from federal regulations; controlling the media to be more favorable to one opinion or the other. Everywhere you look, there are attempts at assuming, creating, destroying, or otherwise shifting

Working With the “Well-Meaning”

This post contains affiliate banner links. For more info, see my disclosures.   What do you do when the “well-meaning” friend or loved one offers “helpful” advice and commentary? If you are working on creating a unique, non-standard life experience for yourself, it has all sorts of pitfalls, trials, challenges, and obstacles along the way. When this is your why, and you are striving to consciously create reality by choosing your own path in life, it can and will impact

What is Your Why?

This post contains affiliate banner links. For more info, see my disclosures.   Why do you desire the things you desire? When you were a child, you believed you could do anything. Hell, you may even have believed that you could fly. You were open and eager and ready to explore and experience all the amazingness that life could offer you. Then, when you started school, depending on your experience, you either found even more paths to explore, and/or you
