Imagine More
My friend Cristian inspired me and this morning I actually did it! I cancelled my cable. I confess that as I dialed Time Warner, I was a little nervous. I was about to give up my ability to come home, click a button and escape after a challenging day. There would be no more channel surfing to avoid doing my bookkeeping.

Beginning with a handful of largely unsatisfying initial forays into the realm of girls and sexual activity, I swung the other way after high school graduation: I chose voluntary celibacy for the rest of my teens, while living amongst a small community of healers, students and fellow spiritual seekers.

The Ultimate Role Model
“Is that a gun in your pocket or are you just happy to see me”. Mae West
Mae West was a woman ahead of her time. She knew the power of a woman’s sensuality and used it without shame or self-judgment. She was a woman who lived full out without concern about what anyone thought of her. In fact, I just learned that she wrote a play titled “Sex” in 1926 that landed her… {Read More}
