“Oh what a tangled web we weave
when first we practice to deceive.”
Sir Walter Scott

My parents were ethical people, and worked to instill this value in their children. My mother’s favorite quote was the one shown at the beginning of this post. But I learned better through trial and error than via admonitions.

Regarding trial and error, some people seem to be born with a special talent for instant karma: the tendency to not get away with anything. I am among this elite group.

According to DreamDictionary.org, dreams about horses can symbolize perseverance, courage, strength, good health, and wealth. They can also represent stamina, vitality, mobility, power, prestige, freedom, personal drive, ambitions, and passion.

Horses have been depicted in myths, legends, and popular culture for their sheer beauty and bond with humans. They also inspire poems like the one in this post.

In my metaphysical classes, I am fond of saying, “Whatever you perceive is you.” And I am hardly alone in this understanding. Deepak Chopra puts it this way: “Look out into the world, and what you will see is a mirror of yourself.”1

My favorite adage on this subject comes from the late Dr. Ihaleakala Hew Len, the Hawaiian psychologist who made the Polynesian spiritual teaching of Ho’oponopono popular. Regarding objective life, he simply says, “There is no ‘out there’ out there!”2

Even if this concept sounds remotely possible, you may be asking the same question I did when I first heard it: “How does this understanding make my life better?”

After my divorce, I did some soul-searching. I started doing research for what became my third book, Creating the Relationship of Your Dreams: How to Manifest it from Fantasy to Reality.Failing miserably on the dating scene—Online, in-person, and distant ones—made me keenly aware that I was not seeing the whole picture. (More to come on both Online and Long- Distance relationships.)

I had inner work to complete. I was thwarting my happiness. My most important relationship, that with myself, had been severely neglected. I had not yet learned to control my inner Anger Dragon. I found the enemy, and he dwelt under my hat.

It was noon in Ashland, Oregon, and I had decided to skip lunch and go for a walk. A memorable encounter that autumn day has stayed with me since that time.

I stopped at a traffic light on the corner of a busy intersection with a few other pedestrians. Glancing across the street, I noticed a local street person waiting to cross in my direction. He was exhibiting serious mental issues—ranting and raging at some unseen person with him.

Stories about unlikely friendships in the animal kingdom intrigue us. This heartwarming story was sent to me by my sister who lives in a rural area in the Northwest. The picture is a digital image I created, not an actual photo.

Have you ever wondered what influence you have on the world around you? We sometimes forget that singing HU, the ancient love song to God, leaves a powerful impression on our environment. We’re not always around to see its effects, but one experience from many years ago brought home this realization and left a lasting impression on me.

Journey to the Heart of Ecuador

While temporarily lost in the depths of an Andean jungle, I was treated to a once-in-a-lifetime experience. This saga began back in Portland, Oregon, when I met Beatrice (Bee), a four foot, five inch dynamo who had arrived from her home in Quito, Ecuador, with a request.

This adventuresome spirit, well into her seventies, stood tall before a room full of people at a spiritual gathering I was attending. She declared for all to hear that she’d arrived from Ecuador and was looking for someone to accompany her back to Quito to help set up a Spiritual Center.

Midway through college I had decided to pursue a career as a mathematician. But not without some doubts. I was drawn to math because I enjoyed it, but was unsure if I had sufficient talent to reach the Master’s or Doctor’s Degree I was aiming for.

While mulling over my situation, my father approached me one morning just as I was about to leave for the college campus to go to a math class. “I think you might like this,” he said, as he handed me an old math book he had picked up at a library sale. “It has an unusual feature as you will see when you open it.”

Sometimes Waking Dreams and Synchronicities combine forces to deliver a powerful message. This story is about such a message and how a strange inner vision facilitated a healing.
