A Personal Sunday Reflection on the Three Stages of Life: Rest in Peace, My Brother.

A personal Sunday reflection of my brother’s life and legacy, in what I call the three stages of life—birth and development, the pursuit and the chase, and sickness and dying— illuminating the gift of mortality. Rest in peace, my brother. Life often demands reflection in its quietest moments. It's no wonder some people are always busy. The recent passing of my brother, Donovan, brought me to one of these moments—confronted by the stillness of an early morning ten days after his departure, I had an epiphany . In that silence, I considered the arc of life, its inevitable stages, and the truths that define us. From the beginning of birth to the vigour of youth and its pursuits of adulthood, to the finale—the fragility of aging and dying.

The Pulse of Nature: Vibration At the heart of this symphony is the concept of vibration. Everything in nature - from the tiniest grain of sand to the mightiest oak tree - is in a constant state of vibration. This vibration is not just a physical movement, but a form of energy that is fundamental to the way nature functions. Summer keeps the planets in their orbits and their particles bound together. In the context of summer, vibration takes on a special significance. The increased sunlight and warmth lead to more intense vibrations, resulting in a flurry of activity in the ...

Three Powerful Words for Long-lasting Relationships

Let’s talk about relationships. You meet someone and are excited about the new prospect, but things soon turn sour. You might not have realized that relationships are high maintenance and are used to thinking only about yourself. Right? But having people in our lives comes with responsibilities, feelings, emotions, and added financial obligations. So, I had an aha moment in an Instagram live chat on the topic of relationships! I spontaneously came up with the answer to what makes relationships work. And guess what? It's SEX!  The concept of SEX is a framework of three simple words with a powerful effect: Space , Empathy , and X-factor . The first two are relatively conceivable, but what do I mean by X-factor? That is a more complicated grasp. All three together seek to promote healthy, balanced and long-lasting relationships. So, allow me to break it down for you. Given my failed relationships, I reflected on the missing links in them. I considered that no relationship co...
