That's a great post, Robert. I still like the BeeGees much to the embarassment of all my musician friends. :P I've got to do some chores this morning but will watch all of those later today.

Freely vs. Free — by Thuy Nguyen

The deeper truths that reside within us sometimes surface when we least expect it. Thuy Nguyen was a little more than taken off guard when a woman in her donation-based acupuncture session asked her why she gave away her work for free. Was she trying to fix a "broken world"? She didn't kn...

In order to do so I learned that it is almost always a manifestation of the unconscious defenses we hold in our 'guts'. :duh 3 Quick Steps to Mindful...

So What's Not to Like?

On Earth there are currently a great number of people who cringe at the mention of the G-word. Mention God and you can see the emotional armoring of cynicism slam into place at near light speed.
