Share Hi Guys. For some unknown reason, I’ve recently had a bunch of very-similar conversations about the role that thinking and, more importantly, ‘not-thinking’ plays in our day-to-day reality. Last year I wrote a three-part series on the topic, so today I have wheeled those posts out of the garage, dusted them off, edited them, [...]
Philosophical & Spiritual
Share Free Stuff It’s been a long time since I have given away some stuff, so today is the day. I’ve got some signed copies of my new(ish) book to give away for the contributions that tickle my fancy. And yes, I will send those books anywhere in the world. For a change, I thought [...]
Share Dear Craig… For the last five years I have received at least one email each week (sometimes ten) enquiring about my religious and/or spiritual beliefs. Apparently, it matters to some people. Not sure why. Maybe they’re not sure whether (or not) they should pay any attention to what I share on this blog. “You [...]
Share If you and I exist in a physical, three-dimensional realm but we do most of our ‘living’ in our head, what’s it like where you live? If your mind was a house, would you knock it down and start again? Would you renovate the existing building? Maybe you’d add a room or three to [...]
Share You can see my body but you can’t see me because it is not me and I am not it. And while I value, appreciate and nurture my body, I don’t worship it because that is not it’s purpose. Some people say my body was designed. Others say it evolved. Either way, it’s incredible [...]
Share A Sunday Run I just got back from a run and I feel great. And while I’m quite enthusiastic about a regular amble around the burbs or the beach, it’s fair to say that my forty-seven year-old, ninety-kilo (198lb), injured-more-times-than-I-care-to-remember body doesn’t always share my enthusiasm for anything that resembles running. Well, that’s not [...]
Share Remember Me? Hi Guys. Sorry I’ve been somewhat scarce lately. I needed a little time out to attend to a few things in my non-cyber world. My business partners (Johnnie and Mikey) and I have been renovating our gym and it’s fair to say that, as a handyman, I’m a good blogger. If you [...]
Share The Voice in My Head It’s incessant. It’s loud. It keeps me awake at night. It criticises and I believe. It makes stupid suggestions and I listen. It pushes my buttons and for some reason, I let it. It doubts my ability. My potential. My intelligence. It dwells on my flaws. Or maybe they’re [...]
Share Hi Guys. A really busy schedule full of grown-up things for me this week, which means less time to write. From time to time (maybe a few times each year), I will wheel out something I wrote a while back that was received positively. Today, I thought I’d polish up and re-publish something from a [...]
Share Ever been disappointed by someone who has behaved irrationally, insensitively or selfishly? Maybe it was all three? Welcome to the club. Chris-Ville Yesterday, I was chatting with one of my old school friends, who, for this conversation, we’ll call John. John is in his mid-forties and has a son who has just turned twenty. [...]
