Freedom's Formula
A Reason For Thanksgiving
Monday, November 24th, 2008All you have to do is open your eyes and look…
When I look beyond my ego
I find a cause to sing
When I look around at the universe
I find joy in the tiniest thing
When I look within at the love I’ve known
I find the laughter that seems lost
When I look into your eyes my friend
I see [...]
A Vote for Senator McCain is a Vote to Propagate the Victim Consciousness
Monday, September 29th, 2008During the recent Presidential debate Senator McCain said, “We Republicans came to power to change government, and government changed us.” He called earmarking a “gateway drug” and the “out-of-control spending” a disease.
Looking more closely at this statement McCain is saying that Republicans were victims of some kind of corrupt conspiracy. They had no choice. They [...]
International Day of Peace
Sunday, September 21st, 2008Aristotle once said, “We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence then, is not an act, but a habit.”
On September 21, 1981, the United Nations declared an International Day of Peace. In 2002, the General Assembly officially declared September 21 as the permanent date for this momentous occasion.
As a habit then, I believe that peace [...]

Pelmanism: Book 2 on Purpose
Saturday, August 30th, 2008As I move into the second book on Pelmanism I like the way he speaks about your purpose coming from feelings rather than thought. As he says, “there is more heart in it than head.”
Just like in Freedom’s Formula when we talk about finding our own freedom it’s the ability to get to the root [...]
Star Trek, Personal Growth and Pelmanism
Wednesday, August 20th, 2008Do you remember the Star Trek episode where they ended up visiting a planet that was so overcrowded no one was ever alone? There was a sense of oppression even though, on the one hand, it was wonderful that there was no illness so everyone lived a long life. On the other hand, there was [...]
The Talking iPod
Friday, July 25th, 2008OK, Well it’s more music than talking but last night it came on again…by itself. I thought it was interesting that the song that was playing with it woke me up was Lovable by Sam Cooke.
It’s one of those things where one just has to listen and pay attention to the message.
I think that we [...]
Will Mr. Potter PLEASE Shut Up!
Monday, March 24th, 2008OK, I’m not talking about my elementary school band teacher OR “Harry Potter’s” deceased father…
It’s a shade of another Mr. Potter who makes it to the homes of many TV viewers at least once a year around Christmas time.
You’ve seen “It’s A Wonderful Life”. You remember when the bank examiner is looking for [...]
Easter Sunday
Sunday, March 23rd, 2008Today is Easter Sunday and for Christians it’s a symbol of joy and unconditional love. Christ gave his life on the cross only to live and walk again among us three days later.
For others - it may simply be a new day. A new opportunity to see God’s beauty.
Wherever you find yourself today - [...]
Hope, Courage and Light
Monday, December 31st, 2007This is my my way of saying thank you to all of you for being…and helping me to “be” in 2007.
In all of your tomorrows - should there come a time where you need a hand to lift your spirits - may you find it here. With the help of a few friends and some [...]
