Here & Now.  Here & Now.

Be still, only now is real.
All thought is illusion.
The past is dust.
The future, travelling light,
That has not yet arrived.
Just be still… 
Here and now is all that’s real.

This collection will lay in wait for a good decade or more before publishing. Perfect timing is everything, so is good editing.

Were you impacted by an invisible war of your own? Or are you simply seeking solace?

This website was built while seeking refuge from life’s hardships, ones that grew to weigh more than a mind could carry. Survival, a skillset, go out into the desert or jungle without the survival skills and you could be eaten alive; does life get easier, just as trapsing through the jungle would, if one has been trained? The Self-Help Library is an excellent starting point for those training to survive life, or to simply improve it (all is free to access). For those sitting beneath rock-bottom, the ‘Recovery Foundations‘ are a solid starting point towards reclaiming a life that is yours to own. May my digital refuge become your own, it was always the intention.
