Life out if balance?


My oh my oh my!

What is going on?

If you listen to the news or talk to others much you understand the world seems to be falling apart.

Guess what...maybe it is!

You know as well as I.

But one thing I know for sure is there are many angry, lost, desperate people out there completely detached from their spirit.

We as a humanity are at an important place in history. I have no idea why I feel this but I know it is so.

This is the time we need to reach inside and see what resides within.

I had a revelation the other day while making our latest film. We do these impromptu videos in case you haven't noticed.

Spirit led me to talk about the word abide.

Suddenly I felt overwhelmed with emotion and understood that when we are told to abide.... it isn't just about abiding in HIM....but allowing HIM to abide in us.

Not that I really know what that means, but I feel it.

It provides comfort and courage to understand everything is alright. I am able to remain in a calm, comforted space although all around me might be spinning out of control.

Perhaps if you feel like everything is falling apart it's time to do a personal check and see what the word abide means to you.




It just might make you day, or even the rest of your life easier.

Litter.....My Pet Peeve!

I live on a somewhat rural road, but several hours during the day many cars pass by.

I am amazed that with all the public awareness out there about tossing trash out your vehicle people still disrespect the environment; not to mention other peoples property.


What do they think happens to their "junk?" It doesn't go away on it's own! I am tired picking up candy wrappers, papers, cups, articles of clothing and unmentionables.

This behavior is disturbing for many reasons. It clearly shows a lack of respect for nature and man. It is an outward manifestation of detachment from spirit. It is a ....you to society and it's rules and formality.

It is a mindless act, like others perpetuated upon society at large. It is yet another sign of those individuals experiencing an entitlement existence. It  is a symbol of an ego so self absorbed it fails to recognize the common good.

Practice appreciation for the world in which we all must share. Encourage others to act responsibly. It took a few years, but eventually my mom stopped tossing her gum wrapped out the window. In fact just yesterday she commented on how good it was that I have a trash bag in my car! So please do us all a favor and "pick up," and ya, that means after your dog also.

Oh and in case you were wondering.......cigarette butts.........are trash!!!!!!
