As you know, Anna, I had struggled with these same thoughts and feelings about my mother, Josie. And I wondered (and still do) as you do: You said: So, anyway, here we are. I am in the difficult situation of having a parent ask me to do things, while at the same time, insisting that he is doing them...

I wanted to give a follow up to my difficulty with my coworker. A few weeks ago, I did confront her. I asked if I could speak with her and she told me she was too busy at the moment. When I told her it would take only a minute or two, she refused. My next action really took courage. I then told her ...

Nisargadatta also said something to this effect: We can't have pleasure without pain nor can we have pain without pleasure. They follow one another in a viscious circle. I think that the human body-mind no only seeks pleasure but it also desires pain. I know of a couple of people who thrive on pain,...

To add poetry to the Einstein-quantum physics analysis. In the words of William Blake: If the doors of perception were cleansed Everything would appear to man as it is---infinite.

Thank you for your advise, Stefan, about envisioning a loving conversation with my coworker. Today I read another quote by Marianne Williamson in her book A Return to Love. It expresses what you have said about dealing both with myself and the coworker with a loving and Oneness attitude: “I have hea...

Thank you, Martin Luther King, Jr.
In the 1960s, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. said: We are witnessing in our day the birth of a new age, with a new structure of freedom and justice.

Dog eat dog
I have known of two dogs who have eaten their young within a week following their births. At those times, I became disguested and upset. Since then I wonder why these mother dogs did so, but to this day, I still don't know and I forget to ask a vet, who could probably give me the answer. But I wonde...
