Tears from A Journal

You don't need to lose a loved one in order to be more appreciative of those still around you, like your family, close friends, neighbors, coworkers, and even strangers. Forget about the elements that distinguish us from one other, let go the notion of countries, federal agents, 007's, religions, borders, and walls! They are mere illusions compared to the deeper values rooted in humanity.

I know we are all very busy people, caught in the habitual chaos of our own realities, but still, when was the last time you used your love and strength to help a complete stranger without expecting anything in return?

The Box Theory: A Simple, Brutally honest Theory About Physical Attraction. You Didn't Choose Them - Your Box Did

  

The Box Theory:

A Simple, Brutally honest Theory About Physical Attraction. You Didn't Choose Them - Your Box Did

By J.G. Forse

We like to think we’re in control of who we’re attracted to.
But what if we’re not?

What if the people we find physically appealing are already sorted in a mental box we didn’t even know we packed — and no matter how hard we try, we can’t force anyone in or out of it?

The Box Theory is a sharp, honest look at how physical attraction really works. It’s not romantic. It’s not emotional. It’s instinct. And whether we like it or not, that instinct has rules.

This book doesn’t try to fix your dating life. It’s not here to make you feel better. It’s here to explain why you keep chasing the same types, why chemistry can’t be faked, and why “giving someone a chance” rarely changes anything.

If you've ever wondered:

• Why someone “checks all the boxes”... except the ones that matter
• Why attraction fades when someone’s ugliness surfaces
• Or why your type seems to be written in permanent ink...

...you’re not alone. And you're not broken.

You’re just following The Box Theory — even if you didn’t know it had a name.

Magick From Chaos to Clarity Is Free on Kindle (for a Limited Time): July 24–28, 2025

From Chaos to Clarity — and into your Kindle

Grab your wands and mark your calendars, because something magickal is happening July 24–28, 2025. For five enchanting days, "Magick: From Chaos to Clarity" will be available FREE on Kindle.

That’s right—absolutely zero coins, potions, or gold bars required.

But before we get into the sparkly details, let’s address the dragon in the room…

"Did you spell magick wrong?"

Nope. It’s spelled with a “k” on purpose. That k stands for the kind of energy that doesn’t involve rabbits in hats or flashy card tricks. This is real magick—the kind that transforms lives, redirects energy, and brings clarity to the chaos that often swirls around us like a dramatic thunderstorm in a fantasy novel.

(Although, if you do manage to pull a rabbit out of your hat after reading this book, let us know.)

So, What’s This Book About?

"Magick: From Chaos to Clarity" isn’t your run-of-the-mill mystical mumbo jumbo. This is a guidebook for stepping into your power, tuning into the energetic frequencies of the universe, and learning how to wield magick in its truest, most intentional form.

Inside these pages, you’ll explore:

• How to create, direct, and share your personal magick

• The art of practicing solo, in small or large groups—and how to tap into global magick

• The beautiful relationship between love and magick

• The mind-blowing truth that billions of people are creating magick daily without realizing it

• How magick is the most unlimited, renewable resource in the universe

Seriously. Unlimited. Like, the Costco-sized jar of peanut butter of metaphysical energy—only better.

Who Should Read This?

If you’ve ever:

• Felt that strange pull from the universe at 3:33 a.m.

• Wanted to use your energy for good but weren’t sure how

• Doubted your own power (don’t worry, we all do)

• Believed that love, energy, and intention can actually shift the world…

Then this book is calling your name—possibly in a slightly mysterious whisper.

Your Invitation to Step into Magick

You don’t need a cape, crystals (though they’re fun), or a secret initiation ceremony. All you need is an open mind, a curious heart, and a Kindle app.

From July 24–28, 2025, "Magick: From Chaos to Clarity" is completely free.

Download it. Read it. Transform with it.
And maybe—just maybe—become the intentional magick-maker you were always meant to be.

Let The Petals Fall:

A novel of grief, love,

and the Garden that changed everything

(The Quiet Bloom Cycle Book 1)

Let the Petals Fall is a poetic, emotionally resonant novel that lingers in the quiet spaces between grief and transformation. Evelyn Marlowe doesn’t remember everything - not the accident, not the hours before - but her flower shop still feels like home. Marlowe’s Blooms hums with quiet rituals and old meaning: bouquets for grief, hydrangeas for apology, petals that hold what words can’t. Across the street, Lucas watches gently from the café. They don’t know each other yet, but the rhythm is already forming. A look. A pause. The hush between names. When Evelyn begins to dream of a Garden that isn’t part of this world - a place where time folds and light remembers - everything starts to shift. The Garden is real. So is the choice waiting there. Guided by Lucas and held by friends who won’t let go, Evelyn must decide whether to stay in the skin she’s always known or become something more. Available now on Amazon in Kindle and paperback formats.

The Secret of Relaxation:

A Practical Guide to Letting Go, Rewiring Your Nervous System, and Living Longer by Doing Less

Most people don’t know how tense they are until something breaks. In a culture obsessed with output, where even rest is optimized and tracked, we’ve forgotten how to actually relax—without fidgeting, scrolling, or performing it.

The Secret of Relaxation is a guide for people who live in overdrive. It blends neuroscience, ancient philosophy, and lived experience into something both rare and necessary: a practical path back to calm that doesn’t ask you to quit your job, move to the woods, or believe in anything mystical.

There are no affirmations or “good vibes only” here. What you’ll find is a grounded approach to training your nervous system—the same way you train your muscles or your mind. Through tools drawn from modern science and time-tested traditions, you’ll learn how to shift out of stress mode and into something quieter, smarter, and more sustainable.

Written in a tone that’s direct, occasionally funny, and refreshingly free of fluff, this book is for anyone tired of mistaking tension for strength. It’s for those who’ve achieved a lot but still feel like they’re bracing for impact.

The real secret? Relaxation isn’t something you earn after doing enough. It’s a state your body already knows—if you remember how to listen. You don’t need more willpower. You need recovery that works.

Come in. Sit down. You’ve done enough. Now, let’s teach your system how to stop fighting and start coming home.

Traversing the Wild Unknown

(Exalted Vibrations Book 2)

Traversing the Wild Unknown is a visionary tale of friendship, ancestral memory, and the unseen forces shaping humanity’s future. This isn’t just a story. It’s a wake-up call wrapped in wonder.

After profound loss, Sophia—a cosmic being in human form—finds unexpected kinship with a circle of brilliant scientists and mystics. Together, they navigate a society lost in illusion, where wonder has been replaced by distraction. Drawn to secrets hidden deep in the Earth and encoded in their own DNA, they embark on a quest guided by intuition, memory, and the invisible threads of the quantum field. What waits below may hold the key to human evolution.

From starlit forests in the Pacific Northwest to enigmatic chambers beneath the planet’s crust, their journey becomes a reckoning: with forgotten histories, collective traumas, and the soul’s quiet longing to remember. Overhead, the Galactic Council watches. They decide not to interfere, but to bear witness, honoring the truth that humanity’s next leap must rise from within.

A story for those who believe in mystery, in burgeoning remembrance—a call to those who feel the stirrings of a deeper reality—ready to meet the unknown without certainty, but with courage, together. 

For readers of Contact, The Overstory, and The Celestine Prophecy, you will love this book.

The New PSYCHOLOGY: A Unified Field of Brain, Mind, Behavior, Perception, Culture...

   

The New PSYCHOLOGY:

A Unified Field of Brain, Mind, Behavior, Perception, Culture...

480 Pages, 8.5X11” Fully Illustrated These are the bits and pieces that make up a deep understanding of our mind.

Psychology controls the biology of our brain. At the witch trials in Salem, when the girls began to shriek “Witch, Witch!”adrenaline and cortisol would have shot into the bloodstream of the spectators. Neurotransmitters would have surged through their brain. Their very brain waves would have shot up from 12 to 40 cycles per second. A P300 brain wave would have screamed “ALERT”. Their heart jumped. A chill went up their spine.

We know this because the same thing happens in America today among those watching a Hollywood horror movie about witches, zombies, demons, murder and more. This is basic to understanding how our brain works in dealing with anxiety, depression, politics, love, sex, interpersonal relations, and life. 
PSYCHOLOGY CONTROLS THE BIOLOGY OF OUR BRAIN. Knowing how this works is essential to understanding how our mind works. The failure to understand that has led to the media's preoccupation with claiming it is all in your DNA or biochemistry; a media preoccupied with the magic words of DNA and biochemicals in the brain cannot grasp a deeper level of understanding.
All teachers are inspired by the idea, however hopeful, that we are getting something across that someday, someway, will benefit our students, make their life better, and give them the tools that they need to understand a very difficult world.

In a critical study by Harvard, MIT, The National Science Foundation, and the Smithsonian, they found that we are often unable to get across even the most basic of ideas that we teach.

A study by the prestigious PEW Research Center found that America ranks 24th in the world in science. Why?
We still teach by rote memory and we have failed to get across the very information we need to think with.
In psychology, students flock to our courses, eager to learn the lessons of life, how their mind works, and how to understand others. They want to understand what the world is all about. Yet what they learn is often that they must memorize vast amounts of data, studies, and jargon that make little sense in how to apply what they learn to the real world. They memorize what they need to know to pass a test, not what they need to know to understand life.

These are the bits and pieces that make up a deep understanding of how the mind works. Welcome to the deep woods...

Waiting for White Jesus

  

Waiting for White Jesus

In Waiting for White Jesus, Cleveland G. Oakes Jr. offers a deeply personal and transformative exploration of self-agency, resilience, and liberation. Blending powerful memoir with practical psychology and insightful social critique, Oakes challenges the myths of passivity imposed by society, religion, and cultural expectations.

Structured into six dynamic sections, the book guides readers through breaking internal chains of maladaptive thinking, reclaiming personal agency, navigating systemic oppression, and thriving amid life's inherent chaos. By integrating wisdom from leading psychological thinkers such as Gabor Maté and Albert Ellis, alongside vivid narratives drawn from his experiences growing up in Brooklyn and working within corporate America, Oakes reveals how societal pressures, trauma, and internalized oppression often leave us waiting for external salvation rather than taking bold, constructive action.

Oakes candidly addresses his own battles with self-worth, resilience, and identity, emphasizing the empowering truth that our most potent savior lies within ourselves. With actionable insights, reflective exercises, and compelling stories, Waiting for White Jesus encourages readers to break free from cycles of dependency and passivity, instead building lives of intentional purpose and authentic power.

This book is for anyone who has ever felt stuck, unheard, or undervalued—for all who are tired of waiting and ready to become active creators of their destiny.

Thoughts on my Thoughts V: The TALES That Wagged This Veterinarian

 

Thoughts on my Thoughts V:

The TALES That Wagged This Veterinarian

Author: Walter R. Hoge, DVM

“Life offers lessons in every moment—if we’re still enough to listen.”

A Reflection on Thoughts on My Thoughts V

In a world moving at lightning speed, it’s easy to overlook the gentle wisdom that often resides in stillness. Thoughts on My Thoughts V by Dr. Walter Hoge reminds us that God speaks not always in thunder, but in whispers—and it is in these quiet moments we find peace, clarity, and purpose.

The fifth volume in Dr. Hoge’s devotional series goes beyond traditional reflection. It becomes a heartfelt dialogue between the reader, scripture, and the soul. Each entry opens with a Bible verse and flows into personal insight, drawing meaning from everyday encounters, spiritual trials, and moments of grace. His reflections offer readers not conclusions, but invitations—opportunities to see the divine in the daily.

Dr. Hoge’s voice is humble and sincere, grounded in both scriptural understanding and lived experience. Themes such as perseverance, grace, humility, forgiveness, and divine timing shape this collection, making it a steadfast companion for those navigating a chaotic or uncertain season.

What sets this volume apart is its balance of honesty and hope. Dr. Hoge acknowledges the tension between faith and doubt, encouraging readers not to have all the answers—but to walk thoughtfully with the One who does.

“A mind-expanding collection that intertwines science, spirit, and the soul of service.” – Greg P.

Whether used as a daily devotional, a tool for deeper Bible study, or a source of personal reflection, Thoughts on My Thoughts V offers both comfort and challenge. It reminds us that every thought, no matter how fleeting, holds potential when brought before God—and every moment is a chance for transformation.

This isn’t just a record of Dr. Hoge’s reflections. It’s an open invitation to explore your own.
