This website is about the value of love, spirituality, the potential of the mind-body connection and the connection with all things. These are my daily thoughts about my life, my feelings, and my spiritual journey. I post these "Daily Journals" on a regular basis, so please come back often to read my latest posting.

Need For Love
When Jesus came and was touched by the force he and I call God he learned and taught of great compassion, love and forgiveness. According to religious scholars, and I agree, religious leaders in the centuries after Jesus then added rules of conduct and some mythology. The additions were quite understandable and even required given the time in history. Today many people such as myself find the additional rules of conduct and mythology to be disturbing, often conflicting with Jesus’ message. Some people tend to reject the whole package, including God and Christ. However, if we as a species are to get through the coming years, we need the great compassion, love and forgiveness.
