Finding Hope In Trying Times
Often I ask myself, where have all the flower children gone? Where are the young men and women who fought for life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness? Where are the people who burned flags, bras and draft cards; who marched on college campuses and on Washington DC so their voices could be heard? I find it hard to believe the thoughts and values they fought so valiantly for have disappeared and are only a fond memory of a golden age gone by.

Conscious Living
Earlier this year, following an intention to live more consciously, I deemed it the Year of Awakening. For me, I envision a lifetime of conscious living as I more fully awaken to the spiritual being that I truly am. As a part of my spiritual journey, I love to look up the meanings of things to gain an even deeper understanding. This is what Webster's Dictionary had to say about the word conscious: in the “moment”, in waking awareness, mentally perceptive, alert, subjectively knowing, intentional, deliberate, inwardly attentive, mindful, possessing knowledge, cognizant, knowing one's self, realizing and recognizing.

The Creative Evolution of Intellectual Properties: The Royal Critters/Whale Magic (TM) Project
FROM UNDERACHIEVER TO HARVARD UNIVERSITY & BUCKINGHAM PALACE!
A royal example of the creative evolution of a GREAT IDEA!
In my teens I aspired to be a writer, but always made poor grades in English composition or any other writing assignments in high school and college. I was not the best speller and was graded on grammar, structure and technicalities--not on my innate God-given creativity. Then I took a leap of faith in my junior year of college and took a creative writing course. I submitted my very first short-story, Chad Jarman is 40 Today! My professor could not believe I had been so harshly judged and said I would one day be an award-winning author. She submitted my first short-story to Harvard's and I won the coveted seat to attend their Creative Writing Program! I was also invited back the next year based on another short-story....

Anam Cara - Losing your Religion
“May you value
the life that is more
than the life you own.”
In Corrogue I am “losing my religion.”
“Life, that's me in the corner.” This is a line from a song I woke up with running through my mind. Even to say it was running through “my mind” is a misnomer. There is simply the observation of lines of a song running as a flow. These lines are from the song “Losing my Religion.” This is a lovely song written by the singer/songwriter Michael Stipe of the rock group REM.
