Positivity: We Go On

We go on. The world turns, and things happen out there which we have little to no control over.  It’s easy to get caught up in politics, wars, social injustices, celebrities, and all sorts of other matters that we are not much more than voyeurs of.  Yet we personalize these matters, let them affect our everyday lives, and often allow them to dominate our consciousness. It is important to be informed, and it’s a good idea to know what is

Crossing the Bridges: A Request for Feedback

I would like to take a different approach to my usual blogging, and request from you, dear reader, some feedback. Over the years I have written about striving to find greater positivity in the world, and discovering and walking one’s own path.  This particular posting was created to explore more closely not just the journey, and how one can choose to take it, but more specifically MY journey. Crossing the Bridges is where I share with you my very personal

Positivity: All Are Created Equal

All are created equal. Men, women, black, white, heterosexual, homosexual, American, Russian, Chinese, Jewish, Catholic, transgendered…what have you, we are all created equal. Beneath the meat sacks we are running around the planet in, we are the same.  We are all creatures of energy, when you get to our very core.  The suits we wear to encounter the world differ, and our likes and dislikes may vary, but when all is said and done we are all equal. Martin Luther

Crossing the Bridges: The Concept of being a Brand

One of the reasons why this blog is titled “Crossing the Bridges” is because of the vastly different styles of writing I work with. I can, however, break down pretty much all of my work into three distinct styles/genres. These posts, as well as Pathwalking and Positivity, fall under what I refer to as self-help philosophy.  My fantasy series, my Steampunk series and all my other imaginative works fall under fiction.   Beyond that, there is the business related writing and

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

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

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

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
