I LOVE YOU (Poem)
2012 Venus transit of the SUN I adore the sand beneath my feet, as winds caress on this sunny Broadbeach, escorting sounds — of Mother Nature divine, and my mind emerges from all things swine. The waves crash — upon the ocean floor, as my soul ascends through an open door… Of expectation and prosperity,…
The boy with the blue crystal (POEM)
The boy with the blue crystal — his face shines, With expectation — like dry lips to wine. A day is dawning — when the sun shall blaze, Within his heart — destroying the haze. Of endless rebirth and the web of mist, That glistens and sticks to a clenched fist, Of resistance and shame…

My Birthday Wish
Cooking Australian bread “pockets” using scrap wood Feeling very blessed today from all the love coming from so many distant friends. Thank you so much!

My Near Death Experience – What did I learn?

To be aware of actions and behaviors – so swine, To acknowledge your essence – so perfectly divine, To allow those mistakes to…
The desire to connect – at what cost?
We often gloat about how “connected” we all are in this modern “wired world”, but are we really? Look around any busy street, subway or office building and sure enough you’re going to see cell phones and blue tooth devises stuck to people’s ears, thumbs feverishly clicking away at tiny keyboards, or headphones feeding music…
Ch Ch Ch Changes – How to stop rebirth
“This material world is not a fit place for a gentleman,” explained Bhaktisiddhanta Saraswati Goswami. “This whole material world is like a stool house,” he said. “You don’t loiter around, you just come in, do your business and leave.” This somewhat gross metaphor could be easily misunderstood and seen as a callous and irresponsible view of…
Rumors – what to do about them?
Rumor: A piece of unverified information of uncertain origin usually spread by word of mouth. R=Rude; U=Unverified; M=Malicious; O=Oratory; R=Rant This was something I created today in response to some ugly rumors floating around about me lately. I am certainly not going to address them here directly and thus give them more energy, I will…
