SEEDS

Nothing exists that did not begin as a concept. Thoughts are things and words have power. As most of you know, I am in the midst of deconstructing and redesigning my life, of consciously and deliberately reinventing my Self. So I now plant a seed for the next phase of my journey.

I respect and thank the world and my Self for all the ways I have chosen to support and express my Self during the first half of my life. For most of that time, I observed and contributed to the mentality that created and sustained an artificial and arbitrary separation between work and play, subscribing to the very common - but completely erroneous - presumption that work must be grueling, unpleasant, and miserable.

For the last half of my life, I intend:
  • to obliterate the line between work and play
  • to generate an unprecedented high-level income doing things I deliriously love and which feed and nourish my spirit and the spirits of all around me
  • to inspire others to understand that living their dreams is not only a possibility, but an imperative in order to be a cognizant co-creator of a better world
What are the things I deliriously love?
  • putting thoughts, ideas, and emotions into written form in ways that illuminate and provoke contemplation
  • speaking before groups, large or small, about ideas, philosophies, everyday miracles
  • sharing insights and wisdom - often gained through challenging personal experiences - with people one-on-one
  • advocating for the rights of helpless critters, both four-legged and two-legged
  • being a walking demo of the theory that beauty originates and emanates from the interior of a person, not the other way around
  • defying preconceived labels and inspiring others to do the same
  • thinking outside the box, then stepping outside the box, then setting fire to the box!
What "real-world" skills, qualifications, and abilities do I possess that enable me to do any of the above?
  • B.A. in English
  • B.A. in Sociology
  • B.Msc. in Metaphysical Science
  • ordination as a metaphysical minister
  • experience as a classroom instructor in adult education
  • experience as a social worker
  • experience as a public speaker
The world is changing, of that there can be no doubt. We are in a time of flux and transition. I like to think of it as a major worldwide upgrade. One of the principals that is quickly gaining widespread understanding and acceptance is that the most effective and efficient way of helping yourself to a better life is to assist another to higher ground. So plant a few karmic flowers for yourself by being a way-shower for me as I traverse my path. I know that somewhere out there is the person who knows of precisely the professional position I'm meant to have or create, so if that's you, contact me forthwith and let's both help our Selves!
