How to move the focus of our mind from the questions of what, where, when, or how, to why?
Perhaps, befoe we begin to ask our self how, when, and/or where we should do whatever, our best interest might be served by asking our self why we desire, or might desire, to do whatever.
Are there reasons that we don’t fully understand? Are we being influenced by outside sources, such as advertising, that may be intended to benefit others much more than it could ever benefit us, except, perhaps, with short-term pleasures at long term costs?
Are we influenced by personal greed more than need?
Just why do we do what we do?

A Journal of a journey, with Spirit as my guide, using
the wisdom of I Ching, an ancient explanation of change as a necessary part of life, to understand Life, and where, how, and why my life has developed as it has, and where do I go from here, and how, and why.
My mission, purpose, or desire is to share my struggle toward and passion for enlightenment, without having a clear idea of what it will look like when I find it, and I intend to find it, sooner or later.
Meanwhile I seem to be struggling toward enlightenment without a clear road map, unless Spirit, my constant companion (did He invite himself along, for laughs, perhaps?) is hiding it from me, for whatever reason.
Vancouver, BC Canada is the only place I care to live, in this world. Perhaps it's not entirely by choice. My name is carved into a nearby sidewalk, as if to remind me where I belong. I am blessed to have Spirit as a teacher. Just ask him.
