Being grumpy and reacting badly is not permanent. You don’t have to settle for…this is just how I react. And eventually you start to realize that it feels so much better to be nice.

Ayahuasca scared the living sh*t out of me, and then healed me in her own unique way
This is for anyone interested in trying plant medicine, or on the flip side, anyone who knows without a doubt that mind-altering drugs aren’t for them, but are curious just the same. My story illuminates that whatever preconceptions you enter with, whatever you think will happen with plant medicine, probably won’t happen at all. But no matter what, you’re going to come out the other side viewing your universe in a completely different light.

Sustainable, Compassionate & Healthy Living - The Struggle is Real
I feel, at times, as I navigate through this process called life, well, a bit manic to be honest. Among the choices of what to eat, how to live, and our environmental impacts, I feel as though I’d be a much better benefit to the planet if I found a little hermitage out in the bush, where I could live out my days among nature, consuming and wasting as little as humanly possible.
The Spirit of Thanksgiving
It's Thanksgiving. What does that mean? That it's officially fall?

Where Does the Time Go?
Airport Fiascos
I had waited for the plane to arrive from a safe vantage point outside of the chain link fence and watched it silently glide in and touch down. The plane began to slow as it passed mid-runway and suddenly I saw the pop of the tire and the plane lurched to the right.

We got a phone call from the supply boat captain early in the morning to let us know that he was heading back to Nassau.
