Do you spend any time on ‘Facebook‘? Are you a ‘Twitterer‘? Do you know what I’m talking about when I use the terms ‘Digg‘, ‘MySpace‘ or ‘foursquare‘? All of these are popular online networking sites that allow you to communicate, network and interact with friends and family on the internet. If you have been online [...]

What if you were told by someone that at some point in time you unknowingly said or did something that was so timely you saved their life? Or that some action you took became a critical juncture in changing the course of their life? Or perhaps just that your impact on their life was as [...]

Tonight I crossed over the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco for the first time in my life. It was rainy. It was overcast. It was night. Yet it was one of the most illuminating experiences I’ve had in a long time. I learned that sometimes life gives you gifts in the unexpected form of [...]

Know anyone who was born from a pomegranate seed? I didn’t think so. In this post, I’m keeping with one of my goals in 2010 to review at least ten of the world’s religions- and with this installment I’m covering the religion ‘Ahl-e Haqq’.
