    Prepackaged Moods on Life’s Meaning

    Recently I did a life review while floating in the ocean on a beach in Waikiki. I always do this, because as I am floating, the thought usually crosses my mind, “What if a shark just comes out of nowhere and eats me whole right now? What will my life have been about?” That might…

  • Switched At Birth

    For most of us, our name was the first lie we were ever told.  Many of our parents or guardians, good intentioned as they might have been, looked at us with their heads full of ideas of who we were and who we were to become and said, “Let’s name him or her _____.” And…

  • Coming Out of the Dark…

    Somewhere in time there is a part of me that I visit frequently.  He is in a dark room and he feels alone.  He is living a lie.  He believes that he is separate from God and from everything else in life–the consummate individual.  Even though he knows that he can get up and walk…

  • An Answer for Everything

    Isn’t it funny that many of us admit that “God works in mysterious ways” or that we must embrace the “unknown”, but yet we always seem to have the answers or be looking for the answers for everything.  We want to get “it” right so bad, that sometimes we will live with answers that make…

  • Life Is an Infinite Journey

    Whenever my wife and travel or go on road trips they turn into these grand philosophical journeys where we discuss the meaning of life, spirituality, the nature of reality, and how to create an ideal life together.  Then we get into an argument over something silly just to see if we can practice what we…
