She Raised Me Right—And I Wish I Had Treated Her Better
I wrote what follows in this post years ago, but coming across it again now—at this exact moment—feels almost divinely timed.

ForContinueContinue reading “She Raised Me Right—And I Wish I Had Treated Her Better”
The Observer at the Center: A Journey Through Cosmos and Connection
There’s a profound resonance in the idea that the “infinite universe” has no center, yet the “observable universe” pivots around the observer—you, me, each of us standing as a singular point of perception in an endless expanse. This rings true, even in a Biblical sense, if you delve deeply enough to weave it into notContinueContinue reading “The Observer at the Center: A Journey Through Cosmos and Connection”
From Rage to Refuge: The Power of Voice and Silence
This morning, I was ready to chuck my laptop out the window.

Broken, But Not Destroyed: What Every Sacred Text Says About Suffering
There comes a point where suffering isn’t just something you go through—it becomes you. Where life strips away everything you thought you were, everything you thought you had, and leaves you standing in the wreckage, wondering if you were ever real to begin with. And what then? What do you do when you aren’t justContinueContinue reading “Broken, But Not Destroyed: What Every Sacred Text Says About Suffering”
Sunday Sessions: Blame It on the Moon
Spirit was on one this morning. I kept running into sign after sign, message after message, all tying into the moon—not just its quiet beauty in the night sky, but its deep, undeniable influence on the world. During breaks from working on some big projects around the house (which completely knocked the energy out ofContinueContinue reading “Sunday Sessions: Blame It on the Moon”
The Virtue of Temperance: A Path to Balance and Freedom
Temperance is one of the oldest virtues known to humanity, and it remains as relevant today as it was in ancient times. Historically, temperance has been associated with combating the sin of gluttony—not just in terms of physical indulgence, but also in how we allow ourselves to be consumed by excessive desires or passions.
