My life will get better: on hope and disappointment
Hello readers, Good parents know how to teach their kids to deal with frustration and disappointment, because not to do so is unkind to children. Parents who don’t delay gratification and who rush to fulfill their children’s needs and desires even before they have the ability or luxury to feel a little discomfort, are truly […]
The Multi-layered Life: thoughts on the question of eternity
Hello readers, Reincarnation and the life of the soul beyond the body are concepts that interest me. Really, the nature of life and reality – why things are the way they are…these questions intrigue me deeply.

Pro-life, Pro-liberty, Pursuit of the Feminine
Last night I watched the vice-presidential candidates debate the various issues – the same ones that always come up, as if there were no other, more important debate-worthy issues. The moderator, Martha Raddatz, Senior Foreign Affairs Correspondent for ABC News, tried to bring out the individual man in each of the debaters in the manner […]
Why Adam and Eve?
I chose the name of my blog after our Old Testament avatars, the so-called first man and woman, Adam and Eve.
