Before My Last Breath. Wednesday, March 28, 2012. The Death of a Brother. The Death of a Brother. I received the news the other day that an old friend had passed suddenly. He was not much older than myself. He was a warrior and part of our “team” from long ago. There was a momentary doubt of what I might find at the end of this road but what the fuck I thought, I’ve travelled all this way. Let’s finish it. I could feel his presence. I feel you my friend. I see you now! After some time I walked back to th...

Before My Last Breath. Sunday, January 30, 2011. Seek and Ye Shall Find (Part One). After I left school I experienced a 180 degree shift in my antagonistic relationship with authority figures. You're dying to know how right? It all started with my discovery of martial arts. There the hierarchy is clearly defined and there is no place for the independent rebel. You toe the line or you're politely asked to leave. There is a master or sensei who commands (demands? I know impossible right? I floundered for a...

Before My Last Breath. Thursday, May 5, 2011. Bloom Where You Are Planted. As some of you may know, I just returned from six days in Arizona and Utah. It was a most needed mental health holiday or “Mancation” as I called it. Just two good friends, two high powered motorcycles, and miles and miles of wide open roads and endless brilliant blue sky. It was of course, an amazing Trip. Yet here I am living about as east as one possibly could without stepping into the Atlantic Ocean. Go figure. Driving home fr...

Before My Last Breath. Sunday, September 27, 2009. War of the Sons of Light against the Sons of Darkness*. Please pardon the intrusion, it is Michael here. I must apologize for my brother Uri – he is at times intrusive and lacking the proper decorum for one of our kind. Some call him edgy and vulgar. I myself see him as young and impulsive. Is there less divisiveness? What is happening right before your eyes? And what part do you play? What role do you take on or not? Do you side with the Light? In any c...

Before My Last Breath: October 2009
http://jamiegilroy.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html
Before My Last Breath. Monday, October 19, 2009. It's time to take an extended break (as if I've really been diligently blogging regularly). Yesterday it was snowing (at least it was on TV during the Pats game) here in Massachusetts. So old man Winter is trudging our way. Coincidentally my beloved has urged me (actually has been urging me for quite some time) to write down my experiences I have had while travelling this particular Spiritual path I've been on (meandering anyone? The past eight years.

Before My Last Breath. Friday, December 31, 2010. New Years Eve 2010. So this year I want to live each moment as if it is the last.with so much gratitude and awareness of how precious Life is. In the midst of whatever it is I am so engrossed in, I vow to appreciate that I am here.on this earth but for a blink of the eye. At the end of this ride I want to smile and know I lived it completely. 2011 Yeah, bring it on. May yours be filled with an abundance of all good things. Links to this post.

Before My Last Breath. Monday, February 7, 2011. In a field in the middle of Ireland I built a fire at the behest of my co-teacher Rita. She asked, “would you take some of the men and build a fire for our ceremony tonight? So flash back two weeks earlier when Meghan came home from Teotihuacan Mexico after spending five days at the pyramids leading a women’s group. As soon as she got into my truck at the airport she announced “I want to have a baby”. That’s my girl! And nine months later Bodhi Quinn Gilro...

Before My Last Breath. Friday, July 9, 2010. Still groovin' from that ride we did.so much fun. I wish had me that saucy little table washer from the Rhythm Cafe right 'bout now.had to wash and wax Toruk myself this evening. And I don't nearly have the cleavage that girl did (thanks Harv for the dusty off road excursion). Ahhh man, sometimes I wish all I did was ride.and ride.and ride. Then flew down that mountain like we was on fire and no old time Italian cars in the rearview again. Johnnie must of ...

Before My Last Breath. Thursday, April 14, 2011. Two Weeks and Counting. Someone recently asked me what book I would write if I only had two weeks to live. That question caught me slightly off balance. What story would I tell about my life? What wisdom would I share from my time here on planet earth? Would there be a compelling urgency to my last words? Or would I go all nostalgic and reminisce about the past? So many good questions to answer, no? How would I live the final 14 days of my existence? Two w...
