Grief is what it is. Grief is a part of life. Grief is a process that unfolds whenever we suffer, experience, or feel loss. Some reasons for grief are obvious – the death of a loved one, loss of a job or relationship, for example. Reasons for grief can be subtle – unfinished emotional baggage from childhood interfering with goal identification and achievement in the here and now, for example. Life Coach, A.J. Mahari outlines 7 keys that help the grief process and 7 keys that hinder the process of grieving.

Self Improvement, self growth, and getting to know more about who you authentically are require a willingness to learn more on a conscious level. The seeking of more understanding needs to be a conscious choice to embrace more awareness. Awareness that will unfold to you on this journey through the mystery of all that you might not yet fully understand about your self. Do you find that there are aspects of your life that just seem to defy your understanding in actual and purposefully consciously aware ways? Are you a seeker of more personal enlightenment when it comes to aspects of your relationships, your attitude, your moods, and your over-all choices in your life?

Enlightenment is many things. It is even more specifically many different things to each and every individual. Awakening to your own personal enlightenment involves choosing to actively seek to expand and nurture a growing awareness. An awareness that seeks to breathe within and from the rich paradox of serendipitous synchronicity.

Bernie Siegel, MD Author of “Buddy’s Candle” writes, Many years ago my great grandfather told me of the persecution he experienced in Russia which led him to come to this country. He said the Cossacks would pursue him at night, when he was out teaching, and slash him with their sabers. One night he was on the hill above his village with his rabbi, the Baal Shem Tov. As they looked down they could see the Cossacks riding down and killing their Jewish brethren.They might have felt the same had they seen their loved ones being taken away to become slaves in a foreign land.

Welcome to Dialectic Magazine. This is a new online magazine that will have a wide ranging focus on the endless interaction of conflicting ideas that make up the rich paradoxical nature of experience.
There are many types of paradox. In and through each and every paradox what is being sought after, found, processed, or realized is some measure of what is true. The more we can bring an awareness of what is true in our lives, what is authentic, the more we can enrich our intellectual, psychological, and spiritual experience of the here and now.
Articles, essays, interviews, poetry, prose, fiction and non-fiction will provide an eclectic blend of information, food for thought, and entertainment.
As Sir Frances Bacon once said, “Knowledge is power”.
