The must be something more

The journey began nearly three decades ago as an idea – “there must be something more.”

And so, it began with one idea and a step, albeit a small step – to search.  I wouldn’t run away or drown myself in drugs, alcohol, or sex – or even over correct by leaning too far to the right or the left.

Honestly, I really didn’t understand what to do – something was wrong, something was very wrong.

Life was not working out.  Later the understanding became clear – the editorial self – that idea you “sell others” – was out of control.  The unconscious had consumed nearly every aspect of existence.

Outside – I was getting by; however inside – I hated it all.

And then it got worse.  Much worse.

So, began the The Journey on the Mindful Pathway.

I’m learning to release the need for my work to prove my worth, and instead live honestly inside my endless curiosity — creating not for recognition, but because it is simply how I am alive.
