On the Passing of Michael Jackson
Jun 26th
I heard the news. Michael Jackson is dead at 50 years old. And then I heard it again and again. I saw the streams of people who took off from work to drive to the hospital and crowd around the door. I saw the people openly weeping on city sidewalks around the globe. And I [...]

Jun 24th
People ask me everyday. What do I believe? I’ve thought about this question a lot. And I think it’s something everyone should answer. In writing.

To Do: Ho’Oponopono

One of the spiritual practices is called Ho’Oponopono (ho-o-pono-pono). This is the practice of healing broken relationships by making them (and ourselves) whole [...]
