The events we draw into our conscious experience are here to help us move towards mastery over our lives.

Hello friends, It has been way too long since I have posted to Secrets. It is my intention to begin posting at least once a week now. I have been writing but most of the thoughts are incomplete and I have not felt like they were share-worthy, as written. So, my hope is to rework… Continue reading Yes Love, Evil Exists

Recently, I read a news article which stated something like this: “Scientists have shown that, contrary to popular, modern philosophy, there not only “is” a self, but it is measurable.” I did a short search for the article but was not successful in locating it. The reason I bring it up, today, is because I… Continue reading Small “s” self is Ego

It astounds me that it has been over 16 months since I posted on this site. I have shared my thoughts in a few other places, but have neglected Secrets To Peace, entirely.

As such, it is highly unlikely I will have much time to devote to sharing… Continue reading Enjoy the Holidays

  You, beloved, fill me, As nothing else can. You transform my loneliness Into solitude.
