Welcome to…
A Studio for Unlimited-Ideas
Throughout this site I share many expressions, perceptions, and reminders from various sources and lineages. Since I consider us all artists, and our lives our canvas, feel free to use this content as an artist prepares colors on his/her palette. Only YOU know which ones will compliment your ‘piece’. I encourage you to add to that palette the very important medium of humor, as Anne Lamott once said “Laughter is carbonated holiness”. You are invited to explore my art and sprinkle your masterpiece with a chuckle, a chortle, even a guffaw!

Living the Question Blog
“There ain’t no answer. There ain’t going to be any answer. There never has been an answer. That’s the answer.” – Gertrude Stein
“Over my years experiencing this grand theater we call the “Earth Plane” thoughts and words have come into my awareness, through my hand or from reading books from many lineages, scribbled notes on paper bags, bumper stickers or song lyrics; the list is endless. They constantly enrich my understanding and expand my perspective.
The Living the Question Blog serves as a resting place for these ideas and a heartfelt reminder that in every moment we are enveloped in love and support.
The concept of Indra’s Net and it’s declaration of the interconnection of all things throughout time and eternity is the foundation behind this blog.
These readings are the individual beads in the net that have come from sources that continue to remind us of our connection not only to our surroundings but to one another.
The time has arrived for mankind to remember and embrace that connection.
Sometimes they become partial answers to those “big” questions like, “Who am I”, “Why am I Here?”, “What is my purpose?” Sometimes these questions appear answered, other times we are drawn to more and more questions that seem to have no answer at all; perhaps “the answer” is not the point really, but just to Live the Question.“
