Our Kitty is Cool
It’s hot and smokey around South Central Wisconsin. Even the house is a little uncomfortable today. The coolest place in the house is the cold tiles just behind the front door. Of course that means our kitty is cool.

Loving Her
It’s another late night that has turned into an early morning. I sit in the den as I do sometimes contemplating the combination of love and stress in my life. In particular right now I’m thinking about how I can make my wife’s life less stressful without being overwhelmed in mine. I’ve been loving her…

Cat’s Toys
Our cat has a few favorite toys. One of them is a plain blue string. She’ll play fight with my wife and me over it. My youngest son does not approve of us moving the toys. When they are not in use they have to each be in one exact spot on the office floor.…

Too Much
Too much THC and caffeine. I really should put the iced tea away. It’s weird that tea is technically against against the Word of Wisdom but that THC technically is not. The Baha’i have the same problem. Alcohol and tobacco are forbidden but marijuana is not. It makes for some very strange theological conversations.

Waves Hello
The day started off with a lightbulb. Sigh! So I did a little mystic art to compensate. This is “Human Aura Waves.” Hello

Spiritual Debt
I do not have a testimony of grace. I simply believe that all spiritual accounts must be paid. Each of us at any given time is either giving or taking light, love, truth, and life from the world. The more we take the more spiritual debt we incur. That debt weighs us down. That debt…
