I write about what is holding us back from a better world and life for all. Topics like the illusion of separation, outdated social norms, world systems, and the human brain are my focus. My mission is to inspire an equal, respectful, and sustainable future for all life.
World Kindness Day and Its Impact on Global Unity
November 13th is World Kindness Day. When I first heard about this day, I was puzzled as to why we would need one. After all, being kind is just a nice way to be both for the giver and the receiver. But then I thought about it further and the potential for the betterment of society…
Climate Change and the Illusion of Separation
2023 has been quite the year for climate change related events.
While climate change can be scary and overwhelming and some may want to point fingers, each of us plays a part in what we are experiencing today as well as what is needed to change our current trajectory.
The good news is it's not too late to avoid the worst.
It begins with seeing past the Illusion of Separation…
Is Love an Emotion or Something More?
If I was to ask you to define what "love" is, what would you say?
Would you agree with various dictionary definitions of love (which to paraphrase) is an affection, a feeling, ultimately an emotion that can come and go depending on circumstance?
Or do you sense there is more?
What if there is a missing definition that could literally change life on this planet for the better?...
What seed are you planting for future generations?
I believe each of is planting a seed for future generations.
Your seed, in combination with the seeds each of us plant, is what future generations will understand about us as individuals and collectively. Together, all of our seeds will contribute to the world future generations will experience.
The question we each need to ask ourselves is…
What world issues are trying to show us
It doesn’t take much to see that while there is a lot of good in the world, there is no doubt we have a lot of very serious world issues.
But what if we take a step back and look at the issues from a different perspective by asking, “What are our world issues trying to show us individually and collectively as a species?”.
Are they trying to show us that we are a species forever based on conflict, division and separation or could it be something else?
Understanding the 2 Functions of the Brain for a Better Life and World
The human brain is amazingly complex, but ultimately it has 2 main functions. Understanding what they are can help create a better life and world. Keep reading to learn more.
Creating a Better World Isn’t Rocket Science
As you look around at our world do you wonder why, after all this time and with the number of achievements we have made as a species, we still haven't resolved world issues (and even our own personal issues)?
After all, we call ourselves an intelligent species so we should be able to figure this out right?
You're right, we should be able to and we absolutely can.
How?
There is only ONE human race
When I hear the words “Black Race”, “White Race”, etc. I want to lose my mind. There is NO scientific basis for different human races. The belief in different human races is a social construct enforced with social conditioning. It has NO biological basis.
All world issues share one root cause
When we look around at the issues facing our world today, they can appear overwhelming, complex, growing and near impossible to eradicate. It's understandable to think that way given elementary logic would dictate if the issues were easy to resolve they would have been already. Yet they are resolvable…
I AM and closing the gap of who we believe we are
I AM - two simple yet powerful and all-encompassing words. At the core, these two words sum up both what we are and what we believe we are...
How rethinking Competition can help create a better world
We live in a world where competition appears to be a normal part of everyday human life. Individually we can believe we are in competition with others to be superior -- from climbing the corporate ladder to needing a fancy car or the latest smartphone. We can also believe we are…
How to see past the Illusion of Separation through the eyes of another
Have you ever been asked to look deeply into the eyes of a stranger or did not know well for several minutes? I have and the experience profoundly changed me…
It’s time for a Global MindShift
Our world is in a mess. Our problems are big, interconnected and literally out of control. While we may want to put our heads in the sand and…
The Illusion of Dominance
It doesn’t take long to look at what is going on in the world to see that many humans seem to be bent on trying to dominate others. What's up with that?
Lest We Forget
On November 11, 2018 events were held around the world to commemorate the 100 anniversary of the Armistice (the end) of World War I. At the time, World War I was called “the war to end war”; “the war to end all wars” and yet even after so many lives were lost, so many lives were impacted and such damage was incurred because of that war, World War II began a…
Are you looking for someone to complete you?
Are you looking for someone to complete you?
You’re not alone. We are programmed from a young age to believe that we are incomplete and that finding another will fill that void. Classic novels, romantic movies, traditional media, social media, etc are filled with messaging that we are not complete without another. It’s time for a MindShift Moment…
Birth and Death – Two sides of the same coin.
At first glance, birth and death can appear to be two very separate events. Birth can appear as a beginning and death as an end. Yet both are really just two sides of the same coin. Both events are…
How the separation of children helped to create a shift
I imagine you’ve seen the headlines of children being separated from their parents as they cross from one man made country border to another. As a parent and a fellow human being, it breaks my heart and I am very much angered by it. As a person who’s Big-Why is to help create a transformational shift in human consciousness, I was also feeling deflated in my ability to help create…
