I’m floating. It’s amazing being back here in the United States. Didn’t expect to feel this way, but here it is and here I am. And it really has very little or nothing to do with the fact that it is the United States. It’s really me within the US. I feel in a way […]

Signs in India
Returning to the US in a few days. Arriving in SFO on Friday morning the 17th. Seems like the protests here in Thailand have quelled some so flying out will hopefully not be much of a problem. Looking forward to seeing you all again! Favorite signs in India: Wear helmet, avoid death Don’t be rash, […]

A bit curious still in watching myself in relationship. I took the learning from my last post to heart and seem to have moved past that into something much sweeter. The thing I’m noticing is a tendency in myself to want to push away when I feel I’m not being met fully, and to move […]

Love Lessons
It surprises me how much I really have to learn about love. Love with another. Traveling with Shanti in the north of India right now and we find ourselves in Dharamsala where the Tibetan government in exile is located. I’m not going to share all the details because it’s somewhat private, but I’m here with […]
