In this article, I offer an interpretation of the Adam & Eve story that I believe more accurately reflects the truth behind this allegorical tale and allows us to extract a greater, much more relevant meaning. And yes, I did call it an allegorical tale. Which is to say, I do not believe that it’s …

Wonders, Ladybugs and Empowerment
The creation of a thousand forests is in one acorn.
-Ralph Waldo Emerson
I was recently pondering the wonder of ladybugs. Each one of them has a slightly different shade of orange or red. As I observed one crawling along the window pane in my bedroom, I thought, “There may not be another living thing on the planet that looks exactly like this one.” Then I squished it …

Natural Inspiration
Wilderness is not a luxury but a necessity of the human spirit.
-Edward Abbey
When we think of the topic of inspiration, we often think of beautiful scenery, waterfalls, mountains, streams, etc. It is our natural environment and it is aligned with inspiration. The world we live in is defined by boundaries: yard boundaries, fences, walls, gardens with defined borders, paths with clear edges, international borders. Most of us …
