The Hero’s ‘Spiritual’ Journey (and Other Dreams)

My first ‘sermon’ (although we refer to them as messages) held at Unity of Fayetteville on October 16, 2011.

So, occasionally, I “feel” or “sense” patterns. Whether it’s divine, awareness, psychosis, or whatever, I don’t know. With the release of Facebook’s “Translate” button, we’re on the verge of the world becoming a place of mutual understanding through communication, common goals of ’green’ movements, peaceful actions, sustainable living goals throughout the world, and people taking [...]

QR You Marketing All the Ways You Could Be?

I was checking out the bulletin board at Starbucks this morning and a poster for a music performance had the ‘old style’ tear-off strips to take along. But then I noticed the QR code on the strip!
