Wanderings & Ponderings
Many of us are searching these days. No matter our age, background, or beliefs, we just want to be happy! How can we do this in a constantly-connected yet lonely-and-divided world, where depression and anxiety are at an all-time high and where our planet is bearing the brunt of our humanity? My life, writing, art, and adventures are all an exploration of this question. So far, I’ve found it all starts with inner peace and outer connection. Simple, but definitely not easy. I hope you enjoy the tips, tools, and ideas I’m learning along the way. I’d love to hear some of yours!
HBD to My Life-Changing Duo
Cheers and gratitude (and happy birthday) to these wonderful human beings who each set my life in a new direction: my firstborn son, Ciarán Patrick Brennan, and my inspiring mentor, Peace Pilgrim.
Peace Now, You Idiot!
How many of us say we believe in peace, support peace efforts or even, like me, write a book in the hopes of promoting peace? Then, without thinking twice, we bad-mouth those we disagree with, mistrust those we don’t know, yell at our kids, curse out crazy drivers? I’m trying to follow Peace Pilgrim’s wisdom and foster inner peace. When I’m angry or judgmental I try to: Stop. Breathe. Know that we all have more in common than our differences. How about you? What can you do today to be kind to yourself and others?
