Events in our lives are clues and signs along our spiritual journey. A recent event showed me that my work is not done here at the college where I work. It is telling me that I need to make sure things are in place and help the new President transition to a healthy and functional…

Living in the Shadow of Ego
Awakening is awareness of what is happening to your present existence. Many are not aware of what is happening to them in their current life situation.
