Have you ever met someone and wanted to immediately befriend them? Especially on days when you are not feeling so good about life and don’t really have anyone to confide in?

But it’s hard to just step in and say to the other person, “Hey! I know we just met, but we should be friends.”

The reason it is hard to make friends is because we are so untrusting. We always want to believe that people have hidden agendas,…

Forget just writing a chapter, I can write a whole book on all the people and things that annoy me. I can provide you with a list from here to Hong Kong of all the things that are nerve-racking in my life.

But I won’t. Instead I will appreciate the gifts that the annoyances bring me, and the many lessons I’ve learned because of them.

The power of the annoyances in your life is that they are great teachers.…

Most of us define ourselves by our wounds. As a matter of fact, we wear them on our sleeves. We showcase them, marketing them to the whole world- or just to anyone that will listen. And, if we run across a person that doesn’t tread lightly around us, we feel that they are insensitive, incompassionate, uncaring and unsupportive.

Today we should tell ourselves that we have had enough support and need get on with the business of living.…

Many of us always look to others for approval or reassurance that what we are doing in our lives is right. We will ask our best friend’s opinion about which dress to wear, or our sister’s opinion about which guy to date, or our stylist’s opinion on the best hair cut.

We always give the other person’s opinion the best value without even first considering our own. We become so caught up in what someone else thinks of…

It is so easy to look back at life and think, “Wow, life has passed me by. How did I get here? Where did my life go?”

It is so easy to fall into the trap of entertaining thoughts of non-accomplishment that leads to feelings of sadness and regret. Every moment of our lives- from the very minuscule to the very catastrophic- is brought here to help us move forward and to achieve our ultimate goals. Those moments…

Ever wonder if things are meant to be? …Just read the signs.

If two or more people are repeatedly telling you the same things, then you should probably listen. If you are walking in the mall and you spot that same gorgeous dress in two different stores (and on two different ends of the mall!), then you should probably try it on. If both your husband and your daughter are saying that they’d rather eat out for dinner…

We always forget that we ourselves create the miracles in our lives, not external forces. When we awaken in the mornings we should also awaken our gifts of creation; our gifts of miracle making.

This morning I woke up and decided that today was going to be a beautiful and miraculous day. And I knew that without a shadow of a doubt that it would be. But I didn’t just create miracles for myself, I chose to create…

Experts tell us that:

Today, be…

I’m sure there are moments in time when we all lose our place and we become lost and afraid.  We get up in the mornings sometimes confused about which direction we are heading or which direction to take.

We become discouraged, defenseless, distressed. Sometimes we even want to run and hide, or just stay in bed with the covers pulled tightly over our heads.  And for hours we will sit and ponder over a lost opportunity, a past…

Yesterday, I asked why do we hate people that are happy.  It is because we feel that we are missing out on something.

We are all meant to be happy, and we will find that happiness.  But we first have to tap into our own source of happiness and well being.  The person you see that is always so full of joy has already found their true source and is able to draw from it’s secrets.

Today, instead of hating…
