The wild never gets tamed because something must die for another to live.

Unpredictable death is why the wild is wild.

Carnivores, omnivores, herbivores.

They all must eat.

The circle of life.

The Universe has no concept of ‘tame’.

Can’t fathom it ever will.

Humans are this weird anomaly.

But when you put humans under the microscope, you see the same instinct to survive: greed, power – for someone to ‘win’, someone must ‘lose’.

Reverse Fathers Day, spirit

Family in mountains
Annual trek should provide memories to last a lifetime.

What if you start thinking the opposite about everything you believe spiritually?

dad

Tradition and dogma imprint ‘religion’ as a once-a-week, ‘Church’ event.

Surrounding the ‘Church Service’ is giving thanks, forgiveness, generosity.

What if you thought differently?

Take Sundays for example…

Why wait until Sunday?

Why only an hour on Sundays?

Why not every step, every breath.

Every day.

All day.

Being at peace with everything is my favorite spiritual fun.

Have always said the spiritual goal is two things:

  1. Be at peace with who you are.
  2. Be content with what you have.

Now, in 2024, in an insatiable desire to simplify, this is the new personal mantra and guide map:

  1. Be at peace with who you are and what you have.

Why the change?

To me, at this stage, peace and contentment are synonymous.

We get to do what Robert is doing in the above photo. Our experience will be controlled since we are amateurs.

Nature isn’t a place to visit. Nature is home.

We come to know the true meaning of Earth Day when we learn to celebrate it every day.

There’s a catch with second chances, they require someone’s permission.

Guess who’s in charge.

How cool is that?

You know the CEO.

Note: Dogma says “it’s who you know”. You’ve hit the bullseye on this one. Congrats!
