Rod of the Desert

Something not right? Is it the media that's off center or your personal/spiritual life? If you feel like your world is a bit tilted, you are in the right place. Welcome to Rod's Blog. It is the goal of this blog to nudge you even further off "center." Why? Because the "center" of our lives is no longer pertinant. The world is spinning. We have spent a lifetime trying to stay a zig zag course that is quickly evaporating. If you feel as though you are grasping at thin air, you are quite normal.
I have been ministering to dying hospice patients for many years. It is with profound certainty that I proclaim that only those who have embraced their certain mortality have any clue about life's true center. And it ain't what most people think it is.
I have witnessed and been a part of many, many peaceful passings. I have witnessed and have been a part of some not so peaceful passings. I have witnessed and been a part of terrible passings. I know that the last two of these are completely out of sync with the human condition.
Life and death are one experience. This experience is a gift for all who are born. No life/death is an accident. No life/death is a punishment. The giver of life presents us with opportunities and challenges that are especially attuned to our needs.
This blog is about helping you recognize the opportunities and conquer the challenges. This blog is about providing a flexible centering that will allow you to maintain a grip while the world does its tumbling. The world is TUMBLING you are TUMBLING! Its ok. You are built for this phenomena. Let me help you roll with the uncertainty. Let the GOOD TIMES roll. You can begin by telling me (briefly) about your "motion sickness."
