I've just got back from a trip to Puerto Vallarta Mexico, a favorite winter destination for me. What was a new experience was changing planes in Houston. I haven't been to the States for a while. It doesn't feel the same. When an action on one part of the world has an impact on events in another part of the world, they call it the butterfly effect.  

Since we were changing planes in Houston on the outward journey, we went through American customs etc in Toronto. Traditionally I have always ... << MORE >>

I am a great fan of Lynn McTaggart and her website   Her books "The Field" and "The Intention Experiment" drew me into the quantum world and the energy of thought. I am adding her latest blog essay because it hits to the heart of the shift in consciousness of which I often talk. The old world view is of competition, separation, winners and losers etc. The new world order will be one of cooperation, win-win, oneness etc.

In Canada, Canadians Against Proroguing Parliament is a group on Facebook with - as of writing - 221,792 members. This grassroots group of concerned citizens, fearful of the erosion of democratic process in Canada, rallied and/or marched in communities across Canada, the US and elsewhere on 23rd January. Although Bob Rae (Liberal MP) was in the Toronto crowd and there were many orange NDP placards evident, this was a people motivated gathering. Here is my video showing what it felt like to be part of it in Toronto. This was people power at its best and ... << MORE >>

If you read my blogs regularly you will understand that I am trying to tap into the universal consciousness that is rising to higher ground. I do not want to be pulled down into a consciousness of separation, retribution and blame. I want to be part of a world community that takes responsibility for its actions because we are all one. There are many paths that one can take on this journey just as there are many religions which map out a path for finding connection with the divine. Surely there can be many paths, no one better ...

Blogsters and newspaper columnists have waxed poetically about the credit crisis being caused by an ethos of greed, selfishness and egotism. A shift in consciousness is occurring as many no longer want to be attached to the beliefs, attitudes and mores of a society that condones such behaviour. There is a revolt against people in power who use power for their own gain. Social media sites allow for the instant mobilization of grass roots rage. The world has changed. There maybe an uprising of rage, but there is also an uprising of hope.

Christmas Day is over. For me always a time of reflection, you know - Christmases past, new year coming etc. I go to a Christmas Eve service and then on Christmas day I take in a movie before sitting down to the traditional turkey dinner. It was my intention to see a feel good movie "Blind Side." But on getting to the crowded theatre I found the schedule had changed from what had appeared in the newspaper. My show wasn't on till the evening. So instead the George Clooney movie "Up in the Air" caught my attention. It ... << MORE >>

"Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter." - Martin Luther King Jr., 1929-1968

What have you personally done about the U.N Conference on Climate Change in Copenhagen? Will we be seen in the future as the selfish generation that cared only about having stuff without accepting responsibility for our actions? In Judeo-Christian societies this is a time of year for buying stuff. A lot of stuff. The world is consuming stuff at an unsustainable rate. 30% ... << MORE >>

I'm starting to really feel ashamed to call myself a Canadian. In so many ways Canada has earned the respect of countries around the world by being the unsung hero in the fight for human rights and ecological sustainability. So many Canadians just go about their business while supporting causes which impact the whole world. Many Canadians take their global citizenship seriously. It is part of being a Canadian.

It would appear that our current Government, elected by a minority of Canadians, is attempting to change all that. Here is ... << MORE >>

My website Keylifejourneys.com has always been one for those who see the journeys of their lives as spiritual ones. It started out as a website for care giving journeys and is forever expanding. As time marches on and new technologies make those of the past either obsolete, or less inviting, people find the era of the VHS video tape has past. However many of you still use the video cassette player. It is to those people that I now make this offer. For just the price of the shipping and handling, I am offering my video VHS tapes free of charge. Go to caregiver resources on my website to familiarize yourself with my care giving videos. Most are in the NTSC format, suitable for North America. But I do have a few PAL format suitable for playing in the U.K. I am also aware that many of you do not like sending money over the internet and so for this offer only I am accepting money orders by mail. << MORE >>

People spend whole lifetimes seeking that which they already have. They have it, because they are it.

I was at a weekend retreat at the Ecology Retreat Centre in the beautiful Hockley Valley in Ontario a couple of weeks ago. An intimate place of undulating glacial formed moraine, covered in trees, mosses, ferns and tinkling streams. The running water mimicked the ... << MORE >>
