I was having an exchange with one of my most favorite human beings on the planet. Our discussions revolve around business and his unique talent as one of the greatest lapidary artists in the world. They often start around some business-related issue, then lead us out into the Cosmos...
Angel Whispers – Remote Exposure
Despite the predictable scenes shown on the 24-hour news cycle, many are compelled to continue watching. Any form of hyper-vigilance indicates the challenge of switching the negativity off. Rumination is another sign of being pulled toward the negative. Trouble sleeping, anxiety, and heightened stress are signs of the hypo-arousal...
Angel Whispers – The Golden Mean
Aristotle gave us a lot to think about (tee hee)! He must have considered that cultivating virtues was a big part of our life mission. To achieve greater alignment with our core means being guided toward certain behaviors. Courage, honor, generosity, kindness, and other virtues could not be followed...
Angel Whispers – Aspirations
Aspirations define our hopes and dreams. They are part of my life goals as seen from 30,000 feet. Aspirations provide the motivation to live a meaningful life. Like love itself, aspirations lead to living with a sense of purpose and direction. Aspirations are usually focused on the future. Unlike...

This is called quantitative. Predictability describes the likelihood something will occur. If we are guessing, this is called qualitative. Some...
Angel Whispers – The Explanatory Gap
The “Explanatory Gap” is a reference to the space that exists between the mind and consciousness. It is somewhat of a label placed on the idea we cannot explain consciousness, at least not purely through the science of brain activity. Some would argue that the only thing you would...
Angel Whispers – Dichotomy
Dichotomy is a division or contrast between two things represented as completely opposite. We humans can be pulled into thinking things are either black or white. Comparing opposites can lead to having a rigid perspective on life. I observed this type of thinking while having a discussion with my...
Angel Whispers – Adventure
This word, adventure, can be defined in many ways. The traditional definition is an unusual, exciting, and typically hazardous experience or activity. What really defines adventure to me is uncertainty in motion. The most significant moments in my life are never predictable or safely contained. We push the limits...
Angel Whispers – Significance
While mowing the front yard, I miscalculated and slammed the mower into the gas light pole. It’s a remnant of days gone by, long since abandoned. When I hit the pole with a bang, time stood still. I was transported back to a moment in my childhood. Not more...
