I am constantly talking about balance in regards to Pathwalking.  Moderation, knowing the yin and yang and finding what we need in order to successfully walk our paths in this life as we would choose them.

We live in a universe of abundance.  Everything we could want or need can be found in this universe, around us, because everything is energy, and we can alter frequencies to move the

Most people are familiar with the Golden Rule, and the phrase “Do unto others as you would have done unto you.” What ends up being neglected is the notion to do unto yourself as you wish to have done unto you.

We form communities because it is human nature to not want to be alone. What do communities form around?  It is usually a common element – everyone shares a skin color or similar beliefs about nature or a faith in god or a common activity and so forth.  The people find common ground with one another, and form a group that shares that commonality.  Now we are not alone. The trouble is, while this starts off innocuously enough, often communities

Do you overthink things? This is a very important question, because knowing the answer makes a tremendous difference in how and where you find satisfaction in life. I often remark that my inner skeptic gets in the way of my plans.  But more realistically, I think, it is my tendency to overthink. What exactly is overthinking?

Around the world today people are celebrating the New Year. Why is this significant?  What does it mean?  What way, if any, does this effect Pathwalking?

“Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.”  – Albert Einstein. As a Pathwalker, I choose my path every day.  I have a course plotted, an idea in my head for where I am, where I want to be, and even how I want to get there.  As I have stated before, there are numerous twists, turns, bumps in the road, diversions and other incidentals that will occur along any given path. As much as
