Spirituality Isn’t Love
Spirituality adrift we wander in darkness. Searching for fulfillment in a world that aggressively suppresses the Divine. Squeezing our souls and draining us of our humanity. Like pressed fruit, we find ourselves empty, exhausted and exploited.
Read MoreLove as THE Ethic
Since my spiritual awakening, I describe God as Love and myself and all people as children of God. Children of Love. Describing God as Love might seem serene, peaceful and benevolent. Attributes I would certainly associate with love but the love I’m describing is more than a sentiment; Love is an ethic. For me, it’s THE ethic in which to live my life.

Read MoreGod is Love
Using the finiteness of language to describe the Infinite seems audacious, naïve, even ludicrous. Nonetheless, as a writer it’s my primary tool to describe God. That and my actions. Musicians, visual artists, sages and teachers or any person anywhere might use other mediums or methods to describe God, but for me it’s in the Word.…
Read MoreKnow Your Worth
When I was a child, before adult responsibilities, I was told I was invaluable. There was no amount of money in the world that could ever replace me. A sentiment shared by the adults who surrounded my young life, a spoken sincerity shared by loving parents. With adult responsibilities came the realization that while this…
Read MoreMy Life’s Meaning
For some people not knowing the meaning of life or more specifically the meaning of their life, is very unsettling.
