All my life I wanted to go home.
No matter where I was, periodically I had this overwhelming desire to go home.
Where home was, what home was… I had not idea. I just knew that I was going to recognize home when I get there.
I was an atheist, there was no religion in my family, and any sign, any symbol of religion filled me with a sense of dread, a sense of distaste.

In the Wisdom Course I took more than 25 years ago, between Saturday and Sunday we had a homework. To write an autobiography through a filter of our choice.
The filter could be where you lived, who you live with, your love affairs, your schooling, your health, the sports you participated in… anything.
I don’t remember what filter I used then, but in this article I’ll do a little of that homework through the filter: depression. Continue reading “Lethargy, aimlessness, listlessness, the blahs, no ambition?”

Depression
Depression is a stuck state. A limbo.
Stuck in all-or-nothing.
Whether it is low grade or higher, it is still depression.
It is not a bad mood, although laughing becomes less joyful and less frequent.
Flailing, like I said in another article is frequent… trying to grab onto some stuff that isn’t going down like everything else.
I have been depressed now for a few weeks now. It became unmistakable yesterday. Continue reading “Let’s dive into the human condition of no self-love”

This article, unintentionally, has two parts. They are loosely connected. One part is about hitting bottom, the second part is about getting out of the judgment, getting out of the systemic value paradigm where you have no future.

When someone says: get present… what do YOU mean by that?
I have noticed that people often know the ‘what’ but completely miss the ‘how’.
I am almost certain that when I say ‘how’, you don’t even know where to look.
And I am almost certain that that unawareness, that ignorance, that ‘I have no idea what you are talking about‘ came from your upbringing, from your parents. Continue reading “When someone says: get present: what do YOU mean by that?”

If you are discouraged, read how I got myself out of the rut and see the rainbow again
I just read Roy H. Williams’ Monday Morning Memo.
It was just the thing for me to read… it was a mixture of feeling shamed and encouraged at the same time… Whaat? Yeah.
I woke up depressed. Not new, I have been depressed to some degree all my life. Continue reading “Dogs can’t see rainbows. People can see them, but don’t”

That sinking feeling… the feeling that you don’t measure up. The feeling of impending doom. Of being found out… The fear of death…
I just read an article in the New York Times, and ended up having that sinking feeling in my stomach.
I don’t often have it myself, that sinking feeling in my stomach. but I experience it from students on the calls, so I decided to investigate. Continue reading “That sinking feeling in your stomach. Is it real?”

Our current worldview is as if we are backseat drivers, at best driving next to the driver.
All we can do is
but ultimately we feel we have nothing to say in the matter of where this life is going. That is our current view of the world.

Today I got to go deeper in the shoulds.
I actually saw that every single thing that causes you, causes Man to be miserable, is a should in one form or another.
What lead me on is this:
I woke up, as planned, at 3 am.
But I didn’t immediately get up. I wanted to measure if my healing client has maintained the healing I worked so hard last night on.
She didn’t. So I grieved a little… and then fell asleep. Next time I woke up it was 4:30. I heard in my head: I should have gotten up when I woke up. Continue reading “Why am I harping on the shoulds… is there any more to see?”
