Seek Love
I spent a long time thinking that relationships should be the variety that my parents have — a polite, comfortable, solid, long-term, come hell or high water kind of love. But something was wrong. There was an emptiness that couldn’t be filled by travelling the world, succeeding at work, sculpting my body into a size 8 or being able to buy whatever I wanted.

Looking back, I can make the excuse that I was in shock and didn’t know what I was doing, but all I knew in that moment was that life was impermanent and everything could end in a heartbeat. There was no time to lose, there was no reason to pretend any longer. Sex and death. Connection in the face of disconnection. Love is all that matters.
How Sex (and Synchronicity) Solved My Spiritual Crisis
Since hearing Marianne Williamson talk on Saturday, I’ve wanted to be just like her. The path I thought I should take was A Course In Miracles because that’s what she believes. On Monday I started out on Day One of the Course. By Tuesday afternoon I wanted to give up. It wasn’t right for me.… Read More
