Ted Seymour - Explorations of Truth
I just spent 5 days backpacking by myself in what is referred to as “The Lost Coast” of California. It’s a very rugged and beautiful section of coastline where Hwy 1 diverges from the coast. You get in there on an unmarked nicely rutted road. Once in about 6 miles, you can camp there or […]
I’ve been struggling a bit lately, and it’s being spurred on by my needing to vacate my home in favor of vacation renters who I’ve lined up for much of the summer. The question of where I am going often comes up for me and I simply don’t know – many thoughts and ideas and […]
I noticed something about limitations today and how our perceptions actually help to form our limitations. Recently, I’ve been having some physical difficulty with my neck, and it made me re-assess my history of difficulties I’ve had there.

It’s been a somewhat strange experience as it has simply felt like my right index finger has been unable to press the shutter button on my camera. It has a sense of emasculation to […]
I’m in Oakland right now staying at the home of my friend Michele and her daughter (my goddaughter) Djuna. This morning, Djuna, not yet 4, kept telling me all the things I’m not allowed to do including “You can’t pick out my clothes” “Don’t touch me” “Mommy helps me, not you” “Don’t say Bless You” […]
