Happy Saturday! I’m enjoying a rainy weekend here in San Diego, relaxing after a two-day garden makeover, thankful for the weather-induced excuse to hibernate with the cat and watch the clouds roll around the buildings downtown. Pardon the Photo Booth quality, my digital pal pooped out on me this week! The areas covered with straw were previously wrecked with weeds of all kind, and the...

Scott and I were in bed by 12:30, it was fantastic! Only three days into the new year and already I am experiencing growth at my job with TakeLessons, in my personal relationships, and most importantly, in the...

new year's resolution: passing through illusions
“The real can be known only through the false, so the ego is a must. One has to pass through it. It is a discipline. The real can be known only through the illusion. You cannot know the truth directly. First you have to know that which is not true. First you have to encounter the untrue. Through that encounter you become capable of knowing the truth. If you know the false as the false, truth...
