The Ramblings of the Titanium Don
Explorations of Conscious Reality Creation, Mindfulness, and Other Matters
It is never too late. You are only too old, too poor, too uneducated, too uninformed, too fat, too short, too little or too much if you believe it to be true. So, too, is the concept of being too late untrue. Time is only an illusion. Our perception of time is frequently shifting, changing, and though we look to clocks and calendars, we see and feel it to be fluid and unexpected. Ever notice how there are times when
Planning is all well-and-good. It’s the actions that I find frequently challenging. The purpose of this particular blog is to share personal accountability as I do the things I do to live the life I most desire to live. Positivity is specifically sharing positive things to combat negativity while Pathwalking is more specifically about the mechanics of my conscious reality creation process. Crossing the Bridges is my personal journey, and the challenges as I take it. I have written about
Sometimes you just need to escape from it all. There are times when you feel so overwhelmed, you just need to get away, escape from your life, escape from your routines, and try something different. As you are reading this, I am on a vacation in a place I have never been to before, with the medieval reenactment society I have played with for over twenty-five years now. Yet the majority of the people I will be with will not
Crossing the Bridges can be difficult if you insist on burning them down before you reach the other side. I have always been a fan of the phrase, “I’ll burn that bridge when I come to it.” I know the word should be cross, but I think I’m a pretty funny guy, so I use burn instead. The problem is, I DO have a tendency to burn the bridges, often while I am right in the middle of the span.
The future is not yet written. This is one of the most amazing, positive truths we can face. Why? Because it means that everything is still negotiable, and that even if we find ourselves on a less-than-desirable course, we can change it. It is easy to get caught up in believing that the future is set in stone. Lots of people work very hard to sell you on the notion that there are limited possibilities for the future, and that
I can see across the bridge. So how come it feels like I will never get to the other side? Look familiar? I don’t know anyone who has not dealt with this sort of thing. You know where you want to go, you’ve a pretty good idea how to get there, you are on your way…yet it seems like you will never manage to arrive. The metaphor of Crossing the Bridges can feel very literal at times. I am where
New day, new way. No matter how I am feeling about what lies ahead of me, I know that this is a new day, and no matter what I have coming to me, there is always a new way. It is so very easy to get caught up in routine. There is often comfort in our routine, which I think is part of why we as a species are so fond of maintaining status quo and continuing through certain patterns
Virtually everything in life can be a learning opportunity. Frequently we do not realize it at the time…but once in a while you get a rare glimpse at the process, and get to be fully and completely aware as it occurs. I have been coping with a situation for a bit more than a week now, which I am going to share with you. I am deeply grateful for the job I have currently, but while I appreciate having it,
What makes you smile? What can you look at, listen to, or read that puts a smile on your face? Is there anyone you can speak with who can make you laugh and smile, someone who has that effect on you? We all need to take some time to seek out sources of light and laughter. We all need to find and enjoy things that make us smile. We are living in a world where fear and anger and terror
I was recently delivered a rather serious blow to my ego. Without getting into too much detail, I ran across something online that made me question my worth, my value as an individual, and my ability to do good work. It was early in the day, and set the tone for the rest of my day, leaving me feeling discontent, nervous, unhappy, and otherwise uncertain. I spent a day feeling ill, unhappy, and discontent. Worse, the general news of the
