Sunday SoulJourn: Spiritual Visit

20 September 2015 Just in case you haven’t heard, the Pope is coming to Philly! This would be a bigger deal for me if Catholicism, or Christianity in general, still offered solutions to my spiritual needs. Quite a few years have passed since I last found solace in the religion which I once treasured. ForContinue reading “Sunday SoulJourn: Spiritual Visit”

Sunday SoulJourn: Entertainment Path

13 September 2015 I soljourned this weekend to one of my favorite places in the United States – Los Angeles! Some say it’s a big city like all the others: loud, noisy, overcrowded with buildings and people. For them, that may hold true. I see it differently.

30 August 2015  FINDING THAT CREATIVE SPARK Ever have moments when you feel completely uninspired?

Keep Moving Forward Challenge: Week Eight

REST FROM THE ROAD The greatest lesson I learned during week 7 of the Keep Moving Forward Challenge is that it’s okay to stop and refresh when moving along my path. It’s crucial, in fact, for the development of the mind, body, and spirit. I’ve been so focused on achieving noticeable progress that I stopped reflecting onContinue reading “Keep Moving Forward Challenge: Week Eight”

Motivational Monday: Flowers & Stones
