Forgiveness is for you.

Forgiveness is a powerful word. At times, we find it easy to forgive others, while just as often, it can be quite a challenge. Something I like to ask myself is: Am I practicing forgiveness? This is especially useful when I’m feeling anger or uneasy toward someone.   The bigger question, though, is why should we be practicing forgiveness? The answer is simple:…

Safety nets allow us to fly higher.

When I hear the word safety net, I immediately think of Ringling Bros. & Barnum & Bailey Circus, and those high wire acrobatics flying through the air. How do they do it?  A whole lot of practice, and knowing that if they fall, there’s a safety net in place to protect them.  I looked up the definition of safety net: something that you…

Embrace your inner child

Here we are, coming out of our homes as things start to reopen. It’s a funny feeling to be able to go places and do things that we weren’t able to do last year, due to the pandemic.  My sweetie and I decided to pack up the car and hit the road to take advantage of our new freedom. We…

Self-Love is Self-Taught.

We’re taught a lot of things growing up, but I don’t recall a class on self-love. It doesn’t matter where you are in life or how old you are, loving yourself more today will have very powerful and positive effects.  Self-love is defined as regard for one’s own well being and happiness. Check in with yourself and see how you feel.  The…

Make self-love priority one

To me, life is a voyage of self-discovery and learning self-love is the main component. To love ourselves is to know ourselves, and to know ourselves is to recognize the full spectrum of our powers. When we practice self-love, we are continually naming and claiming all of who we are—and this includes the scariest parts. We accept the little peculiarities,…

Savoring Life

You’ve probably heard the adage You can’t teach an old dog new tricks. But I’ve discovered that is not true at all—and all it took was getting a puppy to make me realize this. My sweetheart and I welcomed a beautiful seven-month-old Labradoodle, named Benji, into our lives. I’ve gone my whole life without owning a dog, and like Princess…
