Why is it so difficult [i.e. such a pain- in the you know what] for us to stop for just one minute to offer someone a smile of welcome? Why is it so difficult to express a nice word of appreciation? Why is it so difficult to speak positive words of encouragement to someone? Why is it so difficult to offer a helping hand to someone in need?

Our egos are our greatest downfalls, and yet we…

“Truth is not beautiful, neither is ugly. Why should it be either? Truth is Truth.” — Owen C. Middleton

The problem most of us have is laying aside our foolish pride and stuffed egos to hear and accept the truth about ourselves.  We can be cowards because we don’t like when someone corrects us, or reminds us of our faults.  We are the ultimate victims when it comes to others’ judgments, critiquing and criticisms.  When someone dare…

“When you are in a continuous state of sharing, the universe- through the Law of Attraction- has no choice but to reciprocate those favors to you.  Therefore, you will always remain in a constant state of receiving.  Isn’t this a wonderful life to live!” — Penna

In order to be in the flow of a continuous state of receiving, we must be in a continuous state of sharing.  We always demand what we do not deserve.  And,…

Let me let you in on a little secret. If you are holding onto grudges and constantly trying to take revenge on others, then you will continue to suffer. You CANNOT live an “eye for an eye” life! You will continue to stay sick, unhappy, alone and miserable. You will continue to be unhappy with every person you meet, every situation you have, and stay angry at the world for you not being happy.

You cannot buy…

This is the Month of Aquarius. Welcome!   Why? Because we have a lot of work to do on our egos.

We have entered a month of attractiveness; especially personality wise.   Aquarians can be very attractive to whomever that is interested, because they have a very attractive personality.  But, the problem with becoming involved with Aquarians is their ego, and dogmatic ways of viewing life.

Aquarians can become very stuck in their ways, and they sometimes…

“Just as you leave your drenched umbrella at the door when you step in from the pouring rain, leave your drenched ego at the door when you step in from a world of nonsense and blame.” — Penna

It’s raining today. But, I don’t need my umbrella because I’m staying in. Not because I’m avoiding the rain, but because I need to do some checking up on my ego. I’m using this opportunity to figure out where…

A lot of people are stuck in their ways and hell-bent on having things their way. They feel that their way is the only way. That’s true, because it is the only way — for them. It is their way.

Their way works best for them because they have the confidence and belief in their causes to be able to manifest life as they see fit.

Today, instead of having it their way, have it your way!…

Blaming someone else for the situations that happen in your life is shirking all responsibility and accountability for yourself. When you blame someone else you completely hand over the control of your life to that other person. That means the other person has the ability and your permission to make decisions in your life for you.

You don’t want that, do you?

When you walk into a situation full of blame you’re walking into a promise of…

“People with clenched fists can not shake hands.”–Indira Gandhi

Who have you had a few unpleasant words with lately? Who is the person that you absolutely cannot stand and just want to bash? Who is it that you see coming and try to avoid at all costs? Who is it that is fully annoying you?

Fighting is only an illusion. See that person over there? You are not really fighting with her. In reality, there is really…
