Musings and Insights from Daily Life

When I started this website, it was with the intention of encouraging others to embrace their differences, and to realize that there are as many valid ways to choose our paths in life as there are people doing the choosing.

In the interest of this goal, I have written many articles about a variety of topics. All these topics have in some way related to the theme of this site, which is choosing to follow our hearts, and to be happy, no matter what the ups and downs are that we experience.

Having covered a broad range of subject matter to date, I have decided to branch out a little. In addition to continuing to write theme based articles, I am also going to try more of a blogging style of writing. I want to share some reflections from events in my own life, and the insights that these experiences bring me.

An inspiration patchwork is created by taking pieces of beautiful, powerful, challenging, uplifting, or inspiring insight from many varied sources.

Forming an intention means deciding on something we wish to have in our lives, and creating a level of willingness to have that thing. In doing so, we plant a seed in the soil of our subconscious.

Finding a way that works in all the various aspects of my life is an ongoing priority for me. As life is ever-changing, the ways of making things work also need to constantly evolve.

By using affirmations and staying tuned into our inner guidance, we will feel a strong discomfort when our physical reality is not aligned with what we are affirming. This discomfort tells us that we have veered off track, and that we need to gently adjust our course.

By accepting that sometimes it is okay to be not okay we can relax the unreasonable demands we so often place on ourselves.

Since the only constant is change in life, the best we can do is discover how to surf the waves, learn from the ups and downs that we encounter, and enjoy the ride.

While overnight success may seem like a dream come true, there is much in favor of working towards, and achieving, success gradually in various aspects of our lives.

Life is a juggling act! At times it is impossible to keep all the balls in the air and the only way to keep things on an even keel is to place a couple of those balls aside for a while.

If your heart is urging you to take immediate action, then don’t be afraid to plunge. If you feel the inkling of something wonderful, but do not feel an urgent need to take action, then percolate a while. Let that inkling build into something truly inspiring, and then be ready and willing to plunge.

Home is where the heart is. I am going home to Australia, and after my time there, I will be returning home to Taiwan. My heart is in both places and I am proud to call both places home.

Last week I had the privilege of being a guest on Steve Toth’s Mind Body Soul Show. Steve is a fantastic guy and his radio network, RCRN, is hugely popular and offers great programs.

Vegetable shopping can be every bit as much of a spiritual experience as attending religious services. This might sound like a bit of a wild statement, but I strongly believe it is true.
