How do you see life?
Do you see the magic that surrounds your life or are you caught up in the doldrums of daily living? Too often we tend to make our lives more difficult by adding on high levels of stress and anxiety mixed with rage or anger and even discontent. We are living the so-called fast paced life-attempting to keep up with everyone and everything else that we soon lose our way as to what really matters in life and why we are here.

Read articleWhen I Wish upon a Star...
Do you remember a time when you saw a shooting star and you caught yourself making a wish? It’s okay to admit that you have… a lot of us have. And even without a shooting star, we sometimes find ourselves wishing for things that we do not have, for what others may have, and things that we could have had. Quite frankly, it is probably human nature to strive for bigger and better things…

Read articleBlessings Come in Small Packages
Angel Amarushaya reminds us that blessings come in many shapes and forms; for example, through family members, neighbors, teachers and pets. She asks you to count your blessings every day. When was the last time you did? Count your blessings, that is. If you are wading in self pity and do not believe that you have anything for which to be thankful in your life, then you are missing out on the essential foundation of what life and living are all about.

Read articlePride or excuses can paralyze you
Pride, a strong ego, can sometimes confine us. Too often, we get caught up in the words, "I can't do this because I may lose this or that," or "I can't move there because I will be away _________ fill in the blank." There are opportunities in life that beg you to take full advantage of, but because you are so focused on reasons or excuses that stop you, you become paralyzed in the "what if's" and the "I cant's". Do not become that person.

If you are, you might be hindering your advancement as well as the progress of others. It is okay to want things and to acquire success, but sometimes, we allow our personal goals and ulterior needs and motives to get in the way of overall growth. How, you ask? Just look around you, we are experiencing pain and suffering all around the world because people, individually and collectively are not making choices based on the overall good of the masses.

Giving and receiving love are two of the most beautiful feelings on Earth. When you are the receiver of love, you experience the joy and passion that is not only revitalizing, but it is equally intoxicating. Once you receive it, you want more and more of it. To receive love, however, you must become the giver of love. The giver of love is one who gives it unconditionally without strings attached.

Read articleDon't fight change but rather embrace it.
Many people feel that their lives are filled more with burdens and suffering than with blessings and that is quite sad. I know that my life has many challenges and in fact there have been times when I have felt bewildered and let down by God because things were not going my way. Oh yes, I, too, am human. I have those feelings from time to time, yet in my heart, I know that God is simply trying to get my attention and change my course of direction. The truth is, we tend to get stuck in our old comfortable ways and when a jolt or course correction occurs, we get upset and distressed.

Love is both a gift and a task. So how do you love? If God so loved us that he willingly died for us, then we can learn much from His example and work on learning more about how to love each other. To heal your life requires you to feel and share love. It is impossible to truly live in joy and transform your life if you are unwilling to be open to give and receive love. There is so much pain and hurt in the world and we humans seem to be on a mission to destroy each other rather than help and support each other. Love is the only answer!
