I got to see one of my heroes on this principled journey at the Life Source seminar this past weekend, Dr. Will Tickel. Over the years, Will has claimed that BJ actually wrote, “Get the idea; all else follows”–note the absence of the word “big.” And whether or not that’s true, it has got me thinking about things big and small, particularly in relation to events this weekend, which seemed huge, and to the present situation in chiropractic, which often makes me feel minuscule.

I feel it coming. Like the barest shift in the breeze, there’s a change brewing. Something’s comin’; something good, if I can wait. I can almost hear a bugle in the far off night, as if the cavalry is mounting up for a charge, just in time for the dramatic rescue. Maybe it’s because spring has fully sprung here in Lake Tahoe.

I saw a license plate the other day that just got stuck in my head it said, “Too Blessed to be Stressed”. I like it. I’ve also heard another expression that has really made a difference in the way I think. It is said that we have to live life on life’s terms. Life isn’t supposed to work out exactly how we think it should because we are not the pilot, only the co-pilot.

Got lots of love in my chiropractic heart. That’s my job. If all the spirituality that I have been practicing is working then the by product would be unconditional love and acceptance of all. Might not like them all yet I love them all. When I am in a mindset of love then I give lots of love and lots of love comes right back at me. Can’t out give the spirit. Don’t have to go at anything alone anymore.

After seeing the movie, “The Last Samurai,” I felt this powerful churning in my stomach and couldn’t sleep that night. No, it wasn’t something I ate! What that uneasy feeling was, was how clearly the film portrayed what is happening in our Chiropractic world. But first, some history!
