Your Conscious State and Reality
What you experience in what ever state you are in is your reality. In your conscious state, all that you experience is real. In your dream state, there are no boundaries. Anything goes. Do what ever you like, and in the dream state, it is your reality. It works the…

The State of Soul
I’ve heard of people talk about our state of mind. We understand that concept of our mental state or cognitive capabilities. We use that as a starting point to measure our lives, but I like the ideas of our state of soul much better. It just sounds much more dynamic…

The Value of an Apostrophe
I was typing out a tweet this morning on the good ole iphone. I realize that when I tweet, I throw out all of the rules. I only have 140 characters for each tweet so I throw out some rules – only one space instead of a double space after…
