So, This Is Happiness…

I was talking with a dear friend recently and he asked what I have been doing these last few months.  I mentioned that I am starting a new chapter in my life and leaving my old life behind. “I am putting more of my energy into Yes & Yoga and I am transitioning out of the comedy world,” I told him.  “If I happen to lead myself off of a cliff, I’ll make sure to yell to let you know.  You’ll hear me screaming on the way down,” I jokingly told him. “As long as you’re happy, that’s all that […]

Kitties Galore

“I have lived with several zen masters—all of them cats.” —Eckhart Tolle When Adi and I returned to Mansfield after spending last summer and fall in Galveston we made a deal—at least I thought we made a deal; no cats in the house. “I will move back to your family’s land, but I really don’t want any cats living with us,” I requested. “Right!  No problem.  No cats,” Adi replied. Me, being somewhat naïve, assumed that this was the end of that discussion.  We moved back and within days I began noticing that a grey-haired cat (Adi’s dad calls this

Endings (Part Eight)…

Endings, by their very nature, allow us the opportunity to reflect.  What once served us now fades into the background for new opportunities to emerge.  Oftentimes, this can feel stressful and uncertain.  When the comfort of the past transmutes into the excitement of a new tomorrow hope becomes the catalyst to keep us moving forward.  It’s easy to stay mired in the past because it is so familiar that we don’t have to use our spiritual and mental resources to navigate that which we already know.  That comfort comes at a cost—the choice of living the safe life is weighted

Through the breath we find the essence of our true potentiality.”  When fear grips us, the breath is the gateway to reclaim our personal divinity. We can live for days without water, weeks without food, however the breath is our constant companion awaiting us to become allies once again on this journey called life. Foreword: The world stood still; at least

Texas Bluebonnets

The Texas Bluebonnet is somewhat of a rite of passage in the Lone Star State.  Every spring, people from all around take long drives through the Hill Country to gaze at these beautiful flowers that are sprinkled along highways throughout the state.  It’s not unusual to find cars stopped on the shoulder of the road while the occupants of said vehicle cavort through the flowers taking photos with these delicate and ephemeral creatures. With this in mind, Adi and I set out for a Sunday drive to drink in the spring flowers and to feed our never-ending lust for travel.
