Window Shopping for Lives

Some people are forever on the verge of changing their lives. They become deeply absorbed in moving somewhere new, changing careers, travelling, taking up a new pursuit, or imagining a completely different relationship or way of living. For a while, the alternative life feels extraordinarily real. Then the interest passes and nothing changes physically.

Perhaps this is not always indecision or failure to follow through. Sometimes the immersion itself may be the experience. Consciousness can explore many possible lives without physically living all of them. We may enter fully into the energy of another reality, gain what we need from it, and then move on. The personality asks, “Did I do it?” Consciousness may be asking something quite different: “Did I experience it?”

We’ll Be Fine: A Conversation about Reality

Recently, a friend spoke to me about his fears for the future of AI — control, greed, power, and the possibility of technology being used badly. In the past, I might have tried to persuade him that if enough people focused on a better outcome, the world could move in that direction. Instead, I simply put my hand on his arm and said, “Don’t worry. We’ll all be fine.”

That response came from a different understanding of reality: not as one fixed track that everyone must collectively steer, but as many possible realities with which we are continually aligning. Attention is directional. What we repeatedly focus on influences the kind of world we experience and the choices we make within it. This does not remove the need for practical action, compassion, or responsibility. It means that fear is not the only lens available to us. We can choose to orient ourselves towards the reality we most wish to inhabit.

Enanika: Close Call

When Anu woke, she stood and moved with ease. Her body, she realised, was unnoticeable — as young bodies generally are.

After several weeks of being sixty-six-year-old Anna, she had returned to thirty-three-year-old Anu during the night.

Which was just as well, because she and Enlan had decided to go back to Fat Cow Falls that day. Enlan had been feeling very Earthbound and hoped he could connect with Enanika again in the pool. The cliff would be far easier for Anu to navigate than Anna.

“Have you lost something?” Enlan asked when they met at the entrance to the falls.

Anu frowned slightly and tilted her head.

“No. I don’t think so.”

He smiled, waiting. “A few years, maybe.”

She laughed. “Oh. Yes. That. It happened overnight.”

Consciousness Continuing: Many Lives in One

I have long felt that I’ve lived many lifetimes inside one life. Entire worlds have closed behind me and new ones opened — different relationships, places, identities, priorities, and ways of being. Looking back, some of those periods feel less like chapters of one continuous life and more like complete realities in their own right.

Perhaps change is not always about slowly improving the same self. Sometimes we move into a different experiential world where another version of us becomes possible. Seen this way, we do not have to remain loyal to past identities simply because we once inhabited them. We are allowed to move, reconfigure, and enter a life that fits who we are now.

Enanika: Visionary Fiction—The Marketplace

🌍✨ A new story begins…

It’s always an exciting moment to begin a new story.
Here is the start of my new fiction series, Enanika.
It carries the same mystical, otherworldly tone as the Waldmeer Series—yet it’s set in a completely different world. 🌿🕊️

In the opening chapter of Enanika, we meet Anu in her natural world — a peaceful, advanced planet where telepathy is normal, harmony is effortless, and daily life moves with an inner hum of presence.

Chapter 1: The Marketplace

Moving with untroubled ease through the open-air market, Anu’s short chestnut bob brushed just above her shoulders. Sunlight caught her blue eyes, clear as the surface of a calm mountain lake. 

Anu was thirty-three.

On Enanika, age does not carry the same weight as it does on Earth. Time is not something accumulated so much as something moved within. Even so, there is a specialness about thirty-three in both worlds. On Earth, it marks the settling of adulthood, when certain things — for good or bad — begin to solidify. On Enanika, it is also a threshold: a time when what had been practised, learned, and played with can now be lived, explored, and embodied in new, profound, and challenging ways. It is a gateway.

Parallel Realities and Fiction

Good fiction writers aren’t simply creating imaginary worlds out of nothing. They’re tuning into other concurrent realities. Most people assume that there is just one reality. But those on the spiritual path understand that existence has many layers. A skilled writer can attune to those layers. The world they write about is real in its own dimension…
