You can’t have relevance and popularity and do anything with your voice or authority if you’re not actively seeking and honing your talent. If you’re not aware of yourself as a loved and loving being and demonstrative role model, you can’t expect other people to be inspired. If you are not at heart a humanitarian and philanthropist, you won’t […]

Change the Molecules, Change the World III

“Art is a noble skill, and offspring of the material mind of mortal man, inspired by a cosmic loom that carries the fabric on which the self, the small “i” weaves the patterns of universal character with the supreme self, the capital “I”, and holds enduring values and spiritual expression.

A Molecular Friend
January 10, 2013 – 5:50 pm
The idiom about friendship goes something like this: “If you can count your close friends on one hand, you can consider yourself lucky.” What is actually being said here is that real friendships are rare. These are not the friendships one accumulates on a social site (via computer) on an imaginary highway (the Internet) through […]

The Light of Christmas

Don’t look for it in the candle, on the evergreen tree, nor windows of the church. Not in the stable, star, nor the gold of gifts. Glance down. There! See it… shining from your chest? Be the Light. Happy Holidays all. ~Rev. B Don’t walk away with your music inside you. The flash mob […]

Some things just cannot live together in the same Universe. Things that jar the senses, make you shake your head and stagger around in disbelief because it’s a living oxymoron.

Isn’t it getting old? … I suppose it was, well, only a matter of time before somebody did a film about the late, great Marvin Gaye. But reportedly his son Marvin III is not happy with filmaker Julien Temple and Lenny Kravitz whom has been asked to play Marvin Gaye in the flick “Sexual Healing.” […]
Change the World? Change the Media
December 7, 2012 – 7:11 pm
I call it “Meanstream.” It’s the endless flow of nasty commentary that you find all over the Internet at the bottom of articles. Commonly called “trolls,” there are people who, like vipers, lay in the weeds waiting to strike and sink fangs of venom into some unsuspecting passerby. And it’s become a custom at some […]

“No matter what, the most powerful thing in the world is the human mind and prayer, and belief in yourself and confidence and perseverance. No matter how many times you do it, you do it again until it’s right. And always believe in yourself. And not matter who’s around you that is being negative or […]
Thanks Giving
November 22, 2012 – 4:21 pm
The most powerful prayer is GRATITUDE. The most powerful change one can implement in life is to keep a GRATITUDE journal. So that means that today itself is a prayer. Millions of people are celebrating and giving thanks – Thanksgiving. It may seem as if they are celebrating turkey, or pumpkin pie, or a glass or […]
