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,

You Are Worthy, Deserving, and You Matter

You are Worthy, Deserving, and You Matter In our fear-based society, this is an important fact to find, maintain, and grow positivity from. One of the most positive things you can know is that you matter and that you are worthy and deserving of finding, having, and/or creating an amazing life. I know that life is seldom easy. You and I are in a constant struggle with forces both internal and external to get from here to there. But that

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

The Adventure is Yours to Choose

In what direction would you like to take your life? Every day is a brand new day. Why does that matter? Because it means that every day you get new choices, new options, new possibilities, new opportunities, and more. No matter how the previous day may have ended, you get a new day full of new options. Or rather, you get to choose how to view this new day. You could also possibly see every day as the same as

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

Doing, Positivity, and the Life You Desire

Doing opens the door to having. Positivity is a key to that door. Do you have a dream? A goal? Is there something that you really want to make/have/or be in your life? What are you doing to make it happen? When I was a kid and saw The Empire Strikes Back for the first time, this line from Yoda always resonated with me: “Do, or do not, there is no try.” Yoda was not, by any stretch of the

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
