What are you passionate about?

Her daughter called home one night crying. Through her tears the child was finally able to tell […]

Sometimes I wonder how, if you are living your Vision […]

April 25th, 2009 · 2 Comments
Today is a good day on the Vision Quest. When I say good, like most people, I mean I am grateful for what I am getting. Although I was up late last night I did make it up this morning to go to a new yoga class. After two weeks of missing I had no choice. […]

It is late on a Friday night and I’m supposed to be tired after a long week but for some reason I feel like I can’t stop working! Something is happening. Hard to explain in a way. I want to say I am in a flow with my Vision, but it does not really feel like […]

The Vision Quest Chronicles #5: Mami Wata
April 16th, 2009 · 1 Comment
One thing I have noticed that happens when I am on the right path is that the amount of synchronicity in my life seems to increase. I think of something or someone and then like magic it/they appear, or I need a resource or some information and it’s like it just drops out of the […]
