Idiosyncrasy’s Discovery

There is an inner genius; a unique peculiarity about you like no other. But how often do I hear the cry from the confused mind, ‘I don’t know what to do with my life.’ How sad it is that so many have gone to the grave having never discovered their personal idiosyncrasy. This is the [...]

Life Is A Conundrum

Unraveling why certain events occur in the daily life and death struggles and battles that make up our every day existence here on planet earth is always going to be a difficult task. For whenever we unveil a regular pattern there will always appear a contradiction. For even in religion – for every religious thought [...]

Living The Cause & Effect Life

A life with a cause is a life with effect. So let me raise this question. What cause are you living for that is greater than yourself and more expansive than your own personal sphere? It is so easy to be wrapped up in the daily grind, to focus only on the 9 to 5 [...]

Ego’s Place

I had the privilege of meeting up with my father’s youngest sister Dawn Lawrence, along with her partner John Allan, the other day. Now John has an operatic background, and at one point, early on in his career, was the understudy for Placido Domingo who became world-renowned as one of  ‘The Three Tenors’. John recounted [...]

Seven Ways To Live The ‘Seven-Star’ Life

I recently came across a new ‘seven-star’ hotel that is being built in Dubai. Now being a lover of the Sheraton Hotel chain for many years, it was a surprise a few years ago when the Versace Hotel was built directly across the road from the Sheraton here on the Gold Coast, and especially when [...]
