At the dawn of Artificial Intelligence we have arrived at the philosophical singularity of the 21st century. For centuries, humanity defined itself by the maxim of René Descartes: Cogito, ergo sum (“I think, therefore I am”). We believed our “Special Sauce” was our ability to calculate, to write poetry, to strategize, to analyze data. But... Continue Reading →
I learnt this lesson the hard way: Stop kicking the can down the road. Stop leaning into a future event, present activity, or expectation as a crutch for stability or a basis for your identity. I don't think I'd ever truly lived in the present fully as myself; fully independent of external milestones, projected pit... Continue Reading →
Perhaps this was the first prayer I uttered as spirit, newly clothed in a human body. I entered this earthly existence, leaving behind my true form and awareness.

The nature of God; his seed is within you. God's wisdom and presence is within you. Your Father would have you give him your... Continue Reading →
