Before you go

Once before I go. Peter Allen. It is just the best. He was always a favorite of mine. Just totally present. The boy from Oz.

You […]

In Hour of the Wolf, I write about the meaning of a single day. One day. Nothing more. Nothing less. And I write about not filling the day up with stuff, but rather, what is the meaning of one single day. Standing all alone. An empty vessel thst you choose to live in and fill […]

The adventure that is our life

We sat on the floor at sunrise at the Buddhist monastery outside of Siem Reap, Cambodia. Four traveling friends and the monk who performed the water blessing over us.

The kingdom of now

As we walked the ancient kingdom of Champa outside of Hoi An, you can’t help but have a flood of mixed emotions.
