At Least For Now- Part 1 [Video]

August 9, 2024May 19, 2025 ~ inspiracyNow ~ Leave a comment

Part 1 of "At Least for Now"

Sit and Breathe [Video]

August 1, 2024May 19, 2025 ~ inspiracyNow ~ Leave a comment

I struggle greatly to remain equanimous and centered in life...
but if I have the capacity to sit still and meditate, I have a chance at peace.

Shut Off the Television [Video]

July 28, 2024May 19, 2025 ~ inspiracyNow ~ Leave a comment

I can't THINK my way into insight. I can only clear a space for it.

I want to shut off the television and listen to the birds sing.
Maybe then I can find that inner peace I've
been missing all these years stuck in my head.

Instead of a present mind,
I've settled for a spacey one lately,
always subject to a slight elusive displeasure.

The Winter [Video]

July 8, 2024May 19, 2025 ~ inspiracyNow ~ Leave a comment

Procrastination and distraction take complete control of me in sight of beauty.

Pat’s cottage is something from a postcard,
a picturesque New England lakefront cabin
humbled beneath a titanic Milky Way panorama.

My ADHD Meditations [Video]

July 4, 2024April 24, 2024 ~ inspiracyNow ~ Leave a comment

Luckily, meditation is about noticing the inevitable distractions, not about learning to focus better.

Surreal reality meets nihilistic truths. No One ever Intended to be born.

It's strange to watch yourself move, speak, write, and live with out ever intending to do anything...

The Churn [Video]

June 12, 2024May 19, 2025 ~ inspiracyNow ~ Leave a comment

An exposition on the scatterbrained mindlessness that befalls my mind when I'm not practicing my meditation.

The churn-- it leaves reason one-step behind;
sentences search for their periods
in a sea of alphabet soup

Horrible Ghost [Video]

May 15, 2024May 19, 2025 ~ inspiracyNow ~ Leave a comment

A poem describing the anguish of monotony.
