Those seemingly ordinary moments of wonder in your life – when you are arrested by the sunset, the swell of music or your child’s face, and the line between you and everything blurs – are not throw away moments. They are actually portals into the sacred nature of things.

Those seemingly ordinary moments of wonder in your life – when you are arrested by the sunset, the swell of music or your child’s face, and the line between you and everything blurs – are not throw away moments. They are actually portals into the sacred nature of things. 

What are the portals that have captured your heart?

What is it the moment you saw your child born and open their eyes? 

Was it a glorious sunset that painted the sky in every shade imaginable? 

Was it an artistic performance that left everyone breathlessly cheering in a standing ovation? 

We are very seldom exposed to opportunity that can give us cause or reason to experience one of these magical opportunities to come into the most sacred combination of variables. 

As we grow and explore the rare moments when we actually encounter one of these, we are sucked instantly through the vortex into a state of awe and wonder. 

They are rare enough that we very seldom happen upon one of them, but in that ultimate experience, what is it exactly that metaphorically sweeps us off of our feet and literally takes our breath away? 

Are we coming in direct contact with the sacred and divine? 

Is this an opportunity for us to recognize that we are interconnected with things so much larger than that which is within our control as to remind us of the gentle frailty of our human 3D experience? 

Are we continuously living within a world of countless variables such that billions of people may have similar experiences tailor made to their own lives and awareness?  The mathematical probabilities of this are beyond comprehension, and yet, each and every one of us has had several of these experiences at a minimum.

In our experiencing these larger than life events, we are given the opportunity to mature, and thereby blossom with our exposure to something of divine magnitude. 

Yet, regardless of our inability to fully quantify that which we have just experienced, our heart, our mind, and our emotions are accelerated to a vibrational frequency that is so high, that the ultimate ramifications of having had such an experience can never be denied. 

Happy Thursday!

When I was 5 years old, I discovered that the lemon tree in the backyard + dixie cups + water and sugar and I was in business. I have been hooked on that ever since. In 1979, I borrowed $14,000 to create a brand new product... photographic greeting cards with no text on the inside, called Paradise Photography. That was the start of The Illusion Factory. Since then, The Illusion Factory has been entrusted by all of the major studios and broadcasters with the advertising and marketing of over $7 billion in filmed, live, broadcast, gaming, AR, VR and regulated gaming forms of entertainment, generating more than $100 Billion in revenue and 265 awards for creativity and technology for our clients. When I took a break from film school at UCLA to move to Hawaii, my mother did not lecture me. Instead, she took 150 of her favorite aphorisms and in her beautiful calligraphy, wrote them artistically throughout a blank journal. That is the origin of the Lessons from the Mountain series. Since then, on my journeys to the top of a mountain to watch the sunrise, I have spent countless hours contemplating words of wisdom from the sages of all races, genders and political persuasions, constantly accumulating the thoughts to guide me on my life path. I hope you enjoy my books. Please let me know your thoughts, as I highly value your feedback!
