All Things in Life Have Flux and Flexibility

One amazing thing about life and our universe is its flexibility. The Greek philosopher Heraclitus said, “All is flux, nothing stays still.” Life flexibility works by learning to be bendable like the palm tree. The great palm will take gale-force winds and yet will only bend but not break. This is the type of flexibilityContinue reading “All Things in Life Have Flux and Flexibility”

All Life Belongs to the Light of God

I believe there is a place inside of us that reflects what God meant to be there. It is a heavenly place, created by Light, and in the image of divinity. We might not always act like we are God’s creation, but we are. Sometimes things are buried deep inside of us, so deep theContinue reading “All Life Belongs to the Light of God”

When Something Leaves Your Life…

It’s easy to get disappointed when something we wanted, or a relationship we really wanted, leaves our life. Don’t be disenchanted. It’s only a moment to pause in the creative process.

Choices We Make That Empower Us

I entitled this blog post the way it is because I was thinking about choices this morning. My meditative practice was harder than usual because I had so many things swirling around in my brain. As it settled, some interesting thoughts came to me. Even though I don’t believe anyone should live in the past,Continue reading “Choices We Make That Empower Us”

Characteristics of Love: Love Does Not Envy

Envy is an interesting thing. It’s more than jealousy. It wants what someone else has, is or does. Sometimes envy even wants to live the life of another. It can truly go too far, and it happens. In Buddhist tradition, all suffering or discontentment comes from wanting what we can’t have. I think it alsoContinue reading “Characteristics of Love: Love Does Not Envy”

Putting Your Best Intention Forward for the New Year!

There is also something spiritually energetic about the end of one yearContinue reading “Putting Your Best Intention Forward for the New Year!”

Do You Live According to Other’s Expectations?

Expectations from others are hard to keep up with. Everyone has a different opinion of who or what we might be. This is hard for those who are people pleasing types. It can cause our thoughts to go one way, and then the next, creating a great deal of confusion on our life’s journey. WhatContinue reading “Do You Live According to Other’s Expectations?”
