Love is not pleasure

There is no possibility of love while we are pursuing our own demands and desires, our own private pleasures. Love is not pleasure or sensation, and it cannot be found through gratification or self-fulfillment. If we are filled with ambitions and expectations, or are fearful, jealous and envious, then we have no room for love.

Forms of Love

I know relationships are hard. I talk to people, or actually listen to people all the time telling me about their failed or difficult relationships. There are many reasons too. There is money, that is a big one. There is children, careers, family, religion and politics can interfere with the dynamics of an intimate relationship.

The Cure for Jealousy

That is only one side of relationships though. There are two sides to all earthly things, and the other side of relationships is heart ache, loss, loneliness, lying and all kinds of ego centered perceptions. Most of the people here have had love and felt it slip away. The relationships we create are always fragile, temporal, but often ego based.

I will start with some praises for the intimate relationship. I want us always to remember as we discuss things here, that this is a beautiful thing. Even though at times you feel great hurt, and loss, these painful times are balanced, if you are in a healthy relationship, with other times of sharing, peace, love, connections, and intimacy.

Truetalk Counseling

Relationships are one of the more beautiful enigmas of our time. In an age when most riddles and mysteries have been solved through science, the few that are left still unsolved represent some of the most deep and ineffable experiences we can have. Things like light, life itself, death, and love are a few of the still mysterious experiences we have without doubt.

About Me

Bio

Hi everyone. I am just a man, but the ideas I have are what make me a unique man. I am full of anarchy ideals and try to apply this philosophy to all areas of my life including work, spirituality, relationships and hobbies or interests. I am not political, though most would think of anarchists as somehow anti-political, it is not like that at all. I am neither pro nor anti government, i just find them to be a nuisance and hindrance to creativity, projects and in general holding back human potential instead of encouraging it.
I have a degree in psychology with high honours. After that expereince, i took my education into my own hands and continued to study both psychology and philosophy on my own. In this quests of knowledge and awareness I also studied physics, meta-physics, sociology, religion, but have specialized in relationships of all kinds and human consciousness.
I have written many essays, short stories, journals and a few novels and how to books. My how to book is about an invention I created which are called Kismet Stones, you many have seen them being sold at Shambhala in 2008, or in many stores around the lower mainland. You also may have seen me giving reading at many events around the city, and if you have not, but sure to ask me about them and I would be more than happy to meet with you to give you a reading too. The book outlines the etiology of the system of intuition, and gives as much information as possible on how to actually use the system yourself. if things of this nature interest you, if you want to learn to read people and yourself better, if you are interested in Tarot, Runes or the I-ching, then Kismet Stones will also be something that you will want to learn to use. They are a modern tool of reading people's souls, of developing one's intuition and of helping people to open up to their inner experiences.
I am a dad of an beautiful 18 year old young man. I am very proud of what he is doing in his life, and look forward to being a part of his life as he continues to grow into a great specimen of human possibilities.
I am currently in a beautiful, loving and intimate relationship with a lady too. We have been close like this since we met, so it seems now after almost two years, and we continue to grow closer in love and share life's deeper pleasures together.
I also have a counseling practice that I started on my own over ten years ago. Recently I decided i would like to specialize in couples, and have been marketing myself towards couples in all kinds of relationships. From traditional monogamous, to alternative lifestyles, and everything in between, including polyamoury, which i believe is a shift in consciousness that will change the face of intimacy in humans.

Skills and talents
I can read people very well, and have my own system of doing just that, called Kismet stones. I am an excellent listener to people and the experiences they have. I also have an uncanny ability to summarize and reflect back what i hear in such a way as to offer insights and highlights in those events and resulting feelings and thoughts. i am very patient and compassionate, i have a lot of love to give and share, i am a great dad to my son and lover to my beautiful partner. I write a lot, and have many deep thoughts about life, society, relationships, love and more. I plan to use this web space to share some of my ideas. I hope that you will come back often to see what I have written.
