I haven’t gone to the post office in I don’t know how long now. I think it’s been at least six weeks or maybe since before Christmas. I’ve been avoiding the Post Office because I know there are bills that I cannot pay waiting in my teeny tiny slot for correspondence with the “official/corporate” world. … Continue reading »

Moving out of my comfort zone.
Last night, I was elated to have a few dollars to eat at In ‘n’ Out Burger. While I sat and waited for my oh so good yet oh so bad indulgence, I noticed a homeless man walking around asking for spare change so that he could buy some french fries. Most… no every person … Continue reading »
Teeny Tiny Little Miracles Abound!
Today was a very windy and cold day here in Los Angeles. It was also a day in which I had to deliver flowers. As I walked to my car in order to make the last delivery, the beautiful arrangement was knocked from my car onto the ground leaving nothing but fallen flowers and shattered … Continue reading »
A Tiny Beautiful Little Miracle!
Last night, when I realized I needed to put gas in my tank, I got in my car and followed my instinct to drive way out of the way to buy some gas. I had no idea why I wanted to go where I did for gas, I just had an urge… so I followed … Continue reading »
More Love!
Yesterday while I was just about to open my car door and leave the co-op here in Santa Monica, a homeless man tried to hand me something. He didn’t actually look at me, he just lifted his hand for me to retrieve a small cardboard sign with string attached. As I walked closer, I saw … Continue reading »

“I must be giving a lot” is what I thought to myself after a series of random kind gestures came flowing my way over a span of about fifteen minutes. Let me tell you a little about these gestures: A friend just approached me and asked how I was doing, meaning that she knows I’m … Continue reading »
I heart the laundromat.
The laundromat I go to here in Santa Monica is a truly magical place… at least I think so. The energy of the patrons vary from the band of Escalade driving moms with tons of laundry and even more kids to the guy on the street who has to stand outside asking for change in … Continue reading »
The perfect hug.
I have been laying on a couch all night nursing my excruciating headache sort of wishing for a good hug and a comfy bed to sleep it off in. Just when I thought my head would spontaneously combust, my friend sent an e mail which helped to cure my pain. (I will post his e mail … Continue reading »
Give generously in all ways for always.
There is a homeless (I think) woman whom I walk past most everyday on my way to the gym. I don’t know her age. I don’t know her story. I don’t even know her name. All I know is that she’s not afraid to ask for things be it money or objects that one is … Continue reading »
“We are not just an isolated entity who has to do the best for oneself, we’re part of a much larger entity called human kind.” ~ Andrew Hekel
As you may or may not know, one of the reasons why I chose to begin sleeping in my car is to catalyze a global family by way of trading in the straight and narrow construct of material security in exchange for a sort of intangible spiritual security. I’ve been doing this for nine months now … Continue reading »
