Once there was a little soul who got very excited one day, ran to God and said, "I know who I am."God said, "That's nice who are you?The little soul said, "I am the light."God said, "That's right you are the light."The soul thought for a second and said, "But I want to be the light."God said, "But you are the light."The soul said, "I know I am the light but I want to be the light. I want to experience myself being the light. I want to know myself in my own experience."God said, "Oh I see, you want...

Here we are!... embracing this new full moon during the same day we have a big celebration: Halloween. To that we have to add,  the fact that is also a blue moon.  There seems to be quite a bit of confusion over the internet about this. I did see in extremely popular blogs how the last New Moon was actually called a blue moon which is completely incorrect. When we have  two full moons in one calendar month the 2nd full moon is what we call a blue moon. That’s it. Quite simple. And that's where we get the expression...

The idea of the monkey mind comes from Buddhism. The term has been adopted by yogis to describe a mind that jumps from thought to thought as a monkey jumps from tree to tree. The monkey mind cannot exist in the present moment, but rather is constantly distracted by the thoughts that pass through. Buddha described the human mind as being filled with drunken monkeys, jumping around, screeching, chattering, carrying on endlessly. We all have monkey minds, Buddha said, with dozens of monkeys all clamouring for attention. Fear is an especially loud monkey, sounding the alarm incessantly, pointing out all the...

Once upon a time there was a little girl that touched the world with her little toes with every step. Her eyes wide open absorbed the good and the bad and the questions that made everything possible and extraordinary. Because life was made of stardust, dreams and wishes,  moments and glimpses of other worlds. Made of everything she was.  Made of everything she could.  Made of everything she needed to be… to shine. But the little girl didn’t know that this world  was also made of shadows and dark alleys,  tears and sorrow, pain and hurt,  made of “impossible”,  “should’s”...

When a man chooses a woman who follows a calling... the only possibility is that bond can stand by joining, and especially by giving her space for her path. Then it may be that he has to put back with his neediness, but he finds healing through the common path there and usually not in the shong. When a man seeks a woman who heals the collective wounds of woman... namely through her work, he says yes to her: Yes to a greater task. She goes beyond building a house, so it goes beyond having children and raising them. It's...

“There she is. . . the “too much” woman. The one who loves too hard, feels too deeply, asks too often, desires too much.There she is taking up too much space, with her laughter, her curves, her honesty, her sexuality. Her presence is as tall as a tree, as wide as a mountain. Her energy occupies every crevice of the room. Too much space she takes.She is dangerous.And there she goes, that “too much” woman, making people think too much, feel too much, swoon too much. She with her authentic prose and a self-assuredness in the way she carries herself....
