We Are All Afraid

We need each other so much more than we could ever imagine.

Last monthโ€™s message was titled We Are All One. Simply said, we need each other so much more than we could ever imagine. This understanding of life puts peace in my head and my heart. Even if you and I disagree on many things, you and I might very well need one another sometimeโ€ฆsoon. I […]

We Are All One

After writing inspirational messages for 25 years, I’m starting a slightly new chapter involving some version of poetry or lyrics

WE are all one. We ARE all one. We are ALL one. We are all ONE. Say each line to yourself and put emphasis on each capitalized word.         Slowly repeat.                                               […]

As you probably know, love is my favorite topic. I need to keep it in the front of my mind or it slips to the back of it. There are tons of things that are important in life. Tons! Food regularly. Education, ideally forever. A job, to pay for much of what we need and want, […]

Itโ€™s a whole โ€˜nother thing for us to bring our spirit, essence, enthusiasm, delight, […]

Train Your Dragons: How to Have a Positive Outlook

We have been training our brains from the day we arrived, both for better and for worse, consciously and subconsciously. Our brain, inarguably the most important part of us, is a miraculous gift. The older we get we can realize its endless value and our responsibility to care for it. Our brains run the show, […]

I LOVE YOU!

Love is what we all want. Admit it or not…we do. In order to receive it we must practice living it. We all need to get better at love and the better we get, miracles happen. I LOVE YOU I do. Do I know you? Maybe. Maybe not. So, what do I remotely mean when […]

24 Ways to Do Life Better

Doing life better is a job that never ends and the benefits never end either. That is a good job to take.

Something inspired me to write this list of ways to do life better. I hope to closely follow my own advice: 1. Forgive regularly. Resentment is a deep and sneaky poison. Do whatever it takes to send it on its way. 2. Offer sincere apologies… with no buts. “I am sorry” is one of the […]
