My faith deepened.  I was pushed so far out of my comfort zone that the only thing I could do was surrender.  This was 2020.  A year when metaphorically we were meant to see clearer, instead we were left to investigate our lives in an entirely different manner.  All things that no longer served us were meant to melt away—or burn away for that matter—only to return to be delivered as our destiny. For me, my career in comedy came to an abrupt halt.  Leading in to 2020 I traveled around the world a few times a month to either […]

You Can’t Go Home Again

Peace is knowing that we are always Divinely Guided.  Everything is perfectly unfolding to lead us to our destiny.  The only requirement: faith and surrender.  When we align with our Highest Self we align with our Divine Purpose and everything that is needed to fulfill that purpose presents itself into physical form.  This is living in grace and equanimity. Oftentimes, the situations and people that are brought to us may appear challenging.  This is a necessary function of reality because it is frequently necessary to shake us out of our comfort zone in order to align with a new pathway

While so many competing agendas vie for our attention, it is more important than ever that we have the capacity to trust our intuition and our own experience to begin making the most informed and best decisions for our own lives.  In short, we must begin trusting our own personal experience over what we are being told.  Yogis forewarned of these times years ago when they stated with amazing prescience, “The old Piscean Age was dominated by machines and hierarchies.  The new Aquarian Age is ruled by awareness, information and energy.  In the Aquarian Age there are no secrets.  Now every

Planting the Seed

Would you plant the seed of a tree even if you knew that you would never get to enjoy the shade?” In the silence of meditation, the most remarkable messages come flooding through when we reach a state that the Yogi’s call, “shuniya”.  Shuniya is that space where the mind stops calculating and simply witnesses all that is occurring without judgement or the need to change whatever is occurring.  Some call it the state of “zero” or “no-thing.”  This state is achieved when we use yogic asanas, mudras, chants and meditations that physically challenge and tire the body in order

Galveston: Down Goes the Pier

I was amazed to witness it.  And by witness it, I mean watch for nearly two hours on YouTube the slow crumbling and breaking away of a pier at 61st street in Galveston.  Tropical Storm Beta (for only the second time in history we have reached the Greek alphabet to name storms) hadn’t even hit Galveston with her full impact and already her presence was being felt.  As waves churned in the Gulf the Fishing Pier took a very slow deliberate beating and eventually fell at about 10:05 pm local time. Listen to David narrate this blog on Spotify! The
