We Must Make Meaning Of Our Lives
After a long week of seeing clients, last night, I found myself saying these words over and over: we must make meaning of our lives. Beside the fact that I have taken to speaking for a collective “we” even in my private thoughts, possibly a result of my stage of life, what I found myself saying made sense—-to me—after sitting with one person after the other who could not make meaning of their lives.
This Is A Time To Be Very Strong
This time is unlike any other time you have known in your current lifetimes. It is a pivotal turning point at which you cannot fail if you ask what would Love do?
The Soul of Humanity

Gather The People To Create The Tipping
In our digital world, we are constantly being bombarded with new ideas and trends and even conspiracy theories that seek to take hold in the culture at large. Gladwell did in-depth research spanning a number of different fields, industries, and scholarly disciplines, and identified three key factors that each play a role in determining whether a particular trend will “tip” into wide-scale popularity. Not so ironically, he calls these three variables, or “rules of epidemics” the Law of the Few, the Stickiness Factor, and the Power of Context.

This moment is a good time to understand compassion and its incredible power, as we collectively experience its welling up after being shown the tragic photo of a migrant father and his young daughter. We are witness to state-sponsored child abuse in our country, and the fire of so many now is fueled by a response of compassion.
Desire, Decision and Dedication
A vision arises out of deep desire. Desire has its roots the word de sidere which means “from the stars,” and indeed it has been proven that “we are stardust,” as Joni Mitchell famously sang in “Woodstock” Everything we are and everything in the universe and on Earth originated from stardust, and it continually floats through us even today. It directly connects us to the universe, rebuilding our bodies over and again over our lifetimes.
