Something good is happening. The addiction to living kicks. An intoxication. Let’s not dwell or think too far. Tonight I am a yea-sayer. Tonight I taunt the lepers dwelling in the caverns of my mind; the ghoulish things can sleep. Let’s not ask how long for, let’s just be glad the sun is tinted with something living. Desire washes ...

Are You Addicted To Twitter?
While Twitter may have been around a few years longer than it has been popular, the amount of people that have joined Twitter the past few years is astonishing. While I enjoy Facebook, I think it takes much more dedication to come up with good Tweets than it does to post a few pictures or updates to Facebook. A new study shows an intere ...

FEBRUARY 4
Focus: Living in the presence of God
Psalm 16:11 You will show me the path of life; in Your presence is fullness of joy; at Your right hand are pleasures forevermore.
Being in a condition of depression and dependency is something like having your eyes covered with a blindfold. What you are feeling is real to you. It isn’t some imaginary trip. One o ...

While this week in sports has been primarily about the Super Bowl, there was a story which broke February 2, 2012 about Texas Rangers Josh Hamilton. The story was simply that, in his battle to remain sober, Hamilton had a relapse.

Be open to everything and attached to nothing...
How do we achieve such spiritual freedom and bliss to be open to everything and attached to nothing? What are attachments anyway and why do we have them?
Attachments are things we can’t do without or have a difficult time letting go. For example, we can be attached to a certain outcome, in which case we are attached to a certain expectation ...
