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.

God Seed
I disturbs that within most religions and also within this culture humans are spoken of as "pitiful sinners", which they are not. We certainly have an often violent and destructive side. However, as I describe in my book, we also have the God or love seed, a good side, that, if nurtured, can produce wonderful, powerful things. That conflict and choice is part of the joy of being alive, Gilbert Kilpack is writing about that when he writes "Man is separated from God, but secretly united to God; that is the prime fact of life, and all things in all creation speak of this separation, this incompleteness which has infected all." As he also point out nurturing that seed requires discipline and practice. "Yet, feverishly and systematically, we turn ourselves from facing up to it."
