Finding Fuscata

I heard an interesting take on Law of Attraction vs Law of Assumption. For a long time, in my mind, I thought these were very different things. Law of Attraction is all about vibrations and attracting that which you are. It's about the mirror principle and taking inspired action. But then the Law of Assumption is about living "as if". If you're familiar with Neville Goddard, you may remember his mentor saying, "You ARE IN Barbedos, and you traveled there first class!" This is also in line with what Jesus of Nazareth said, "Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours." To me, these always seemed like a contradiction. How can it be that I need to raise my vibration in order to attract something, but at the same time, as soon as I ask it's already mine? The new thing I learned is that these two laws are the opposite sides of the same coin. And that coin is called your identity. It's...

Have you heard this expression: "The thing you are seeking is seeking you"? I recently found a book titled  Reality Unveiled by Ziad Masri. The first words are "What you seek is seeking you." This concept was so profound to me when I first understood it. Let's make three assumptions together to work out this hypothesis: First, we're human which means we are mammals which means we evolved here on Earth. Second, nature, along her evolutionary path, has developed a lot of ways for things to go from the unreal to the real. Babies that weren't here last year are here now. Plants that didn't exist a month ago are in my garden now. There's a never-ending cycle of things popping in and out of existence. Third, humans have the unique capacity to envision our future and develop tools and methods of making those visions a reality. If you can agree to these things, then check out this hypothesis: The fundamental drive of any species - plant, animal, or other...

What if we have the concepts of dimensions wrong? What if we’re looking at it backwards? Nassim Haramein, an accomplished physicist, helped me see the fallacy of dimensions. See, we believe that we live in three dimensions, but the more I learn about it, the more I see that’s actually impossible. In Nassim’s explanation, when he first learned about dimensions, his teacher told him “it all starts with a point, but that point is imaginary”. Then we have two points which form a line, or the first dimension, then three points which form a plane, or the second dimension, then a fourth point which gives depth, or the third dimension. Nassim’s problem with this is that if each of the points is imaginary, then how can it construct things that aren’t imaginary? And I take Nassim’s question one step further and ask this: Most physicists contend that we live in a three dimensional world, and that the fourth dimension is “time” or “duration”. This is because duration is the aspect of dimensions th...

We finally got home from the beach! What a trip! Me and the fam Sunrise this morning Horseshoe crab! This trip was truly a blessing. It was our second annual family trip to the Jersey Shore. My father-in-law, Rodney, rented a shore house large enough for the whole family to come - Kelly, her sister Megan, her brother Patrick, and their spouses and kids. Plus this year we had Rodney's mother, Theresa with us - she's slowing down at 89, but still has a wicked sense of humor! At the beginning of this trip, I was struggling with a few things in my marriage. I made a post about it here and wanted to let you know what I've learned. For several months now, maybe even years, I've been struggling in my marriage. This is my third marriage, and I struggled in similar ways before. My issue is that I had a fundamental distrust of women. If you've followed me at all, you'll remember some of the breakthroughs I've had in my journey here with RCA. My default position was th...

I served 23 years in the United States Air Force. Most of that time, I was a civil engineering technician. I was a surveyor, mapmaker, draftsman, community planner, construction manager, and a lot more. In that job, I was able to travel all around the world, from Korea to Tajikistan, from the Republic of Congo to northern Alaska. During that time, I had a burning desire to be a writer. I have that classic writer's story where I started writing stories in grade school and was always a voracious reader. On a good year, I would read 60–70 books (if you count audiobooks, which I do). I took several correspondence courses to learn to write fiction, joined writers groups, and got my degree in creative writing. I have four novels written (none of them published), a collection of poetry, art, and stories (self-published), and countless short stories that I've lost or given away. What I never did was write professionally. For most of my time in the Air Force, I struggled with depression...

I may have posted about this before, but it’s worth repeating. Get comfy…it’s a long one. Do you remember the story of Moses and the burning bush? The story goes that Moses was a fugitive in the desert after murdering an Egyptian when he came across a bush that was on fire but not consumed. Turns out, it was God in the bush, and he wanted Moses to go back to Egypt and set the Israelites free. When Moses asked whom he should say sent him God said, “Say to them, I am that I am has sent me.” This has had theologians scratching their heads for centuries. I remember growing up in a home where theology was usually the dinner table discussion. All the men in my family except my mother’s father were either church pastors or bible teachers of some sort. I remember the endless debates and pontificating about what it meant regarding free will or predestination, how God was the creator of the world, and on and on. None of those discussions ever made much sense to me. In fact, it wasn’t until I cam...
