Pathwalking 263

This week I continue to work with Pathwalking in Practice. Last week I broke down the three means I believe everyone lives their life by:  letting life live you, curling up in a ball and waiting to die or living the life you want.  Pathwalking is a means to the end of living the life I want to live the most, and has evolved into a self-help philosophy I believe I can do more with, for myself and for others.

Positivity: Little Things of the Moment

Life is full to overflowing of little things. These little things are day-to-day items, occurrences, people, places and things that build up positivity.  They are many, they are varied, and all too often they are taken for granted. The little things are things that bring us moments of contentment, of joy, of peace.  They make us focus on the moment, forget the overarching world situation.  They are of far more power and import than we realize, and they can help

Crossing the Bridges: One Small Step

To cross any given bridge, you need to start by taking a step, literally and metaphorically. One of the reasons I began this particular blog post was to help me get my head screwed on straight, while I assess both where I am and where I want to be.  Positivity is a specific topic, and far more general, and while Pathwalking is my life philosophy, it is also a more specific focal point. What neither address is the more personal

Pathwalking 262

With the start of this new year, I want to begin working on a new aspect of Pathwalking. Tentatively, this will be called Pathwalking in Practice. Pathwalking in Practice is setting up actionable items in order to better work on conscious reality creation. What is an actionable item?  The things you do to actually walk the path you are choosing. Everything we choose begins at the same point.  There is a thought, an idea, an inspiration.  Something you read opens

Positivity: Expectation

What do you expect for the New Year? Expectation is a reflection of your mindset, whether positive or negative.  If you are expecting good, exciting, fun and awesome things, you’re thinking positively.  If you are expecting bad, depressing, bothersome, terrible things, you are thinking negatively. If consciousness creates reality, and I firmly believe that it does, then expectation of positives needs to be empowered more than that of negatives.  I don’t want to create a world of terror, failure, misery

Today and the New Year (2016/2017)

Today. Today is.  That’s all, today is a day. The question is, what will you make of today?  How will you treat today differently from how you treated yesterday and how you will treat tomorrow? As we enter into the new year, and we prepare to celebrate the transition from the one to the other, we should all take a moment to consider what last year wrought, both good and bad, and what we might want for next year. This

Crossing the Bridges: The New Year

The New Year is frequently used as an opportunity to get a new start to things. Many people make resolutions, which amount to often grand plans for sweeping changes.  Years ago, I decided that while resolutions are all well and good, they are soft, non-committal, and easily disregarded.  This is why I started instead of creating New Year’s Resolutions, to take New Year’s Actions. I began to blog regularly five years ago, as a result of my 2012 New Year’s

Pathwalking 261

This has been an interesting year. In some respects this goes with the Chinese curse of “May you live in interesting times”.  In some respects it has simply been full of odd and unusual, fascinating things.  In some respects it has just been interesting as opposed to uninteresting…and in some ways it’s very much Joss Whedon’s definition from Serenity: Mal: “Define interesting?” Wash: “Oh god oh god we’re all going to die?” Much of the latter is due to the

Positivity: Remember, We Are All One

We are all one. I’ve said it before, I’ve written it before, but it bears repeating.  We are all one. We are all composed first and foremost of energy.  Energy, which can neither be created nor destroyed, just transmuted from form to form.  Beneath the skins of so many colors, under the genders we claim for ourselves, we are all made of exactly the same stuff.  We are all one. This time of year for some is hugely joyous, while

Crossing the Bridges: Optimism for the Future

I’m not feeling it today. I have attempted more than once to start this post, and every single start has stumbled.  I get maybe an intro paragraph, and then can’t go forward. Why am I not feeling it today? Because I have gotten too caught up in outside influences.  Because the madness of the world around me is interfering with my own thoughts and feelings, and I can neither shut it out nor replace it with something more useful, something
