Reading Time: 6 minutes It makes me sad to think about the many spiritual people who feel isolated and shamed by their feelings. It also makes me feel sad that deliberate creators feel like they can’t play with the Universe and create when they’re feeling depressed. While that’s not true, the spiritual community doesn’t nurture enough conversations about the sacred nature of sadness and often doesn’t embrace people who can’t find their feel-good thoughts or just get happy.
Depression isn’t a failure. It’s a medical condition. There is no way around that. And in some cases, it’s a medical condition that requires more than one approach to treatment.

Reading Time: 4 minutes A relationship in balance between two healthy balanced partners works like this:
The man pours all of energy and attention into his mate. He adores her. He treasures her. He cares for her and attends to her needs. He protects her. He provides for her on many different levels, and I’m not just talking financially. More or less, without question, he worships her. His life becomes an active outpouring of his adoration – for her.
And what unfolds from that place of absolute adoration is a thing of beauty, because fueled by his love, that woman blossoms. She thrives. Most importantly she has the sustained energy it takes to create a beautiful and joyful shared life.

Reading Time: 5 minutes Life will make you feel like a victim. It will happen to you unless you get yourself in the driver’s seat and stay grounded in what really matters. A healthy marriage isn’t hard work – that’s a myth. A sick relationship will be the hardest work you’ll ever have to do.

Reading Time: 4 minutes I call it, “trying to manifest in the churn.” When you’re in a sailboat headed for the open ocean, there is always a patch of water between the harbor and the clear flat ocean that gets a little or a lot rough. That is what we would call the churn. It’s easy to get stuck in the harbor because you don’t want to even get into the churn. It’s also easy to get stuck in the churn if all you can focus on is the choppy water.
When you’re aligned, inspiration shouldn’t be far behind. If you’re waiting too long for some sort of inspiration, it’s a sure sign you’re not as aligned as you might think you are. It may also be a sign you’re trying to align with the wrong thing.
Simply put, we often get stuck trying to manage our alignment to something too close to where we stand.

Reading Time: 3 minutes There is a difference between taking the high road for principle and hiding behind doing the “loving” thing. The difference can be measured in resentment. If taking the high road leaves cleaner clearer energy behind then it might be the right course of action. However, if doing the loving thing leaves resentment in its wake – it’s not love.

Reading Time: 2 minutes As hard as it, the rule of thumb here is when a man asks for space, give him all the space in the world. In other words, end it on the spot. It might feel counterintuitive. It might feel like the request for space indicates trouble that you need to fix.
