Somehow not only for Christmas But all the long year through, The joy that you give to others Is the joy that comes back to you. And the more you spend in blessing The poor and lonely and sad, The more of your heart's possessing Returns to make you…

I love the smell of Christmas, along with all the lights. Log fires in the fire place, on those cold winter nights. The smell of Christmas goodies, that are baked with tender care. The smell is just the greatest, there's nothing to compare. The ev…

Mine is a pilgrimage to peace. I am a spiritual gardener sowing seeds of positive transformation. Life is a tapestry we weave each day and i seek to live by imagination while exploring new possibilities. I am attempting to actualize my highest vision while creating a spiritual environment of love , light and understanding. I walk a path of giving with a harmony that is omnipresent. Like a lullaby from a music box my soul plays a symphony that i may truly enjoy this dance of life.

Sacred Mother Earth is at a crossroads and we as caretakers must align ourselves with the spirit in an attempt to reverse the damage that we have caused so that future generations can live peacefully and sustainably in celebration of the divine. We must live a life of meaning and contribution as we serve to protect our planet. The river of inspiration is within us and we must strive to make sure its waters are clean.

I have left my footprints in the wind as i travel a path of conscious intent. The womb of nature has caressed my spirit and inspired me to facilitate positive change as i seek to advance human understanding. I walk a rainbow trail where i embrace the world with love . Mine is a passionate vision nurtured by Mother Earth . Through exploration and expression i seek to enhance the flow of positive energy for my fellow spiritual travelers. The simplicity of the soul is enchanting and endearing , it generates peace and love and inspires me to embrace the infinite life force while being a catalyst for conscious evolution.

LET NO MAN RAISE HIS HAND

As a man I have seen far to many women suffer abuse at the hands of men.

From this point on Let No Man Raise His Hand in Anger , Let No Man Raise His Hand in Hate , Let No Man Raise His Hand in Conflict for to do so diminishes the Human Spirit.

Women are our greatest treasure. They bring life into the world. They nurture our spirits and nourish our souls yet far too many of them suffer at the hands of men. What is wrong with us as a society that in the 21st century we still allow this to take… Continue

IF MY SOUL HAD BUT ONE THOUGHT

In my heart theres a garden where a tree of life grows whose fruit will nourish my soul when I am hungry and whose leaves will provide me shelter when I am old."

The mystery of life is such that I am inspired to connect with my soul in a dance of timeless truths and sacred visions. It is my desire to live with simple dignity while creating harmony and peace.

REVERENCE FOR LIFE ( Thoughts of a Spiritual Revolutionary )




In these difficult times its important that we understand what our journey is about. We are all on a journey of the soul and with that must come a reverence for life. It is those without reverence whose ignorance and lack of understanding create the havoc we see around the world today. For the planet to survive we must seek to change peoples paradigms one soul at a time.

The inner garment of our soul is one of inspiration and imagination. It is crucial that we use that garment to embra

Would You Nurture My Soul

"Let your mind start a journey thru a strange new world. Leave all thoughts of the world you knew before. Let your soul take you where you long to be...Close your eyes let your spirit start to soar, and you'll live as you've never lived before."
Erich Fromm



Would you nurture my soul if I said please? Would you embrace my spirit if you saw my pain? Would you tell me you loved me if you knew how powerful words can be?

The landscape of human feeling is awash with sadness and depression. For we… Continue

Thank you for that - inspiring as ever!

Children, simple and pure, are our future - and we can all learn a lot from observing how they play and interact with each other.

Respect and brotherly love!

David.
