WD Allan’s Blog: Sensing Our Darkest Hour!

There is an old saying commonly attributed to the theologian Thomas Fuller that states that “the darkest hour is just before the dawn.” Whether in theological terms or in a perspective of everyday living philosophy, the meaning carries its weight accordingly. What it really is trying to convey is the axiom of never giving up when you know you’re on the proper course in your life. We all know what this feels like in our own way. Nonetheless, frequently life just sometimes seems to make less sense than the challenges that it presents in our way…

WD Allan's Blog: The Source of Your True Power!

Remembering what it was that brought us along to our present state of being in life is as important to our current life as it will someday be to all that we have yet to achieve!

A great part of our lives tend to become filed away into that rarely visited cabinet of memories and dreams where we retain all that forms our current understanding about ourselves. Sadly however this cabinet eventually takes on the character of being both a forgotten saddle for all that thus far remains unattained in our lives as well as containing much that we invariably choose to label as most feared about ourselves. The brighter truth is that should we finally choose to open wide this cauldron of individuality and then shine the light of ourselves upon its contents, we would rediscover that it has the capacity to thrust us forward like the great motivator it was always meant to be!...

It’s frequently the case that most people can be willing to accept some unproven truth based merely upon the inferred credibility of some other seemingly trusted soul for no more than that individuals inferred sense of credibility no matter whether such views hold any muster or not. One of the reasons for this is that it’s sometimes easier to accept an unknown truth at face value from someone respected by idealized reputation rather than to challenge any of the so-called facts or truths alternatively. The latter you see usually takes a fair amount of self motivated footwork and thoughtful mind bending as well as the tenacity of character in seeking out one’s own factual basis for belief right and true as it may or may not be and no matter what the potential opposition that might disagree with anyone else raise to the contrary…

WD Allan's Blog: It's Amazing What One Study in Organized Religion Will Motivate!

It's really amazing what the effect can be when there are people of differing beliefs and faiths all sharing the same community. If we were to spend some times really thinking about it, we could express admiration for those of different beliefs and even try to spend some time learning about those ways of belief that differ from our own!

Such investigations might even lead to an even greater understanding about ourselves and how we have chosen to relate to the wider expanse that is the vast religiously spiritual family of humankind. In a perfectly expressed world such a family of relationships between varying ways of thought might even work to the better good of the overall worldwide community! Alas however, in many ways humankind still finds itself bogged down with major resistance to such growth in its personality and this unfortunate fact remains one of its biggest anchors in its own self-revelation!...

In recent years much has become increasingly apparent from reading those thoughts from many more ethically and competently minded investigative souls in the world involved in spiritual and paranormal investigation. Many who are trying to mete their ways through the riff and the raff of what has resulted from the recent popularity in the paranormal investigation world have come to the realization that “the problem” itself always best remains the center of any investigators attention. If any of you out there ever care to submerge yourself into a literal free-for-all taking place, just enjoin yourselves to the vast chains that seem to be increasingly connecting the winding world that is paranormal investigation nowadays. In time, perhaps then there are those of you who will eventually come to understand why it is that a choice few chose to avoid all of the fan dancing that is currently taking place…

WD Allan’s Blog: The Ashes of Misunderstanding True Fame and Fortune!

“The longer a man’s fame is likely to last, the longer it will be in coming.” - Arthur Schopenhauer

“Fame means millions of people have the wrong idea of who you are.” - Erica Jong

“A life lived with integrity - even if it lacks the trappings of fame and fortune is a shining star in whose light others may follow in the years to come.” - Denis Waitley

One of those prized states of existence in our common human experience, at least for some people, is to climb their ways up the ladder of success and meet fame and fortune face to face at last! Who hasn’t in some way wondered what life would be like had their path turned and they suddenly found themselves as a rock star, a famous singer, a wealthy Wall Street financier, or some other enchanting vision that carried along with it the benefits of encountering fame and fortune!

WD Allan's Blog: Seven Reasons the World Should Grow Up Where Religion and Spiritual Belief Are Concerned!

Warning! The following is a practice in parody and a response to a recently read CNN website opinion article in criticism of alternate forms of faith. It is an attempt in empathizing in the frustrations of choice people from many different forms of faith who express feeling threatened of being attacked over their choices of faith and belief. It is an expression of the manifest desire for living a free and unthreatened life as expressed by some who have contacted me over the years and those observed by myself over time.

These few thought provoking points relate to how people choose to live their lives along with their own chosen ideals of faith and belief! Please while some of the following may no doubt immediately appear offensive to some of you, do please remember to take the points as examples of why divisiveness in our world still seems to drive wars over these matters. Yes, even in a local community sense!...

Why does it seem that life nowadays is a constant daily dance of wearing masks when in the midst of one another instead of just being able to present yourself as you are?

Everyone has thought about this at one time or another and if not consciously so, certainly semi-consciously it has passed through your waking thoughts in some way. The world now is widely reported as being a high stressed place for many reasons. Its become a place that demands an ever increasing amount of effort to maintain a semblance of what most visualize as a "normal lifestyle" and one that strains the individual to conform in so many ways, to present as others would have us all be, and to just be a good ole' soul and to ride along the train just like the rest of the world...

The passage of a season marks its tenderness not by its revelry but rather according to its shine in our heart!

Whenever the season of autumn comes around to make its merry again, I can't help but to take it in with every deep unimaginable breath! There is so much about autumn that allows me to feel re-energized! The crisp air in the mornings, the changing colors of our surrounding forest, and of course the wonderful smell of the mulled spices and the scent of fireplaces that moves through the trees. Yes there is no finer or more appreciable time of the year for my soul than is this...
