Lately I have found myself wondering what it would be like to walk in someone else's shoes.

On Being a Late Bloomer
I’m a late bloomer. It sometimes seems I’ve lived my life backwards. I like to say I took an early retirement (minimal employment and lots of leisure), and now that I’m of retirement age, I’m fired up and cracking to start working. I mean really working, working at my ... Views: 1380

We have all waited in line for something. It is neither always easy nor fun to wait in line but, we believe, it is usually worth the wait. While we are in line waiting we probably grow weary.

I had recently gained ten or so pounds. I realize that that is not a life-changing or physically detrimental amount and that it is not an equivalent comparison to people who would like to lose some serious pounds. But it has certainly opened my eyes to some new aspects of body image and the ... Views: 1379
Your self-images may not be something you think about them very much. In fact, most of you probably don't even realize that you have many self-images, each one taking a turn depending on the circumstances you are in.

Who has time to consider such lofty questions, even though the answer to this question is the answer to all of your stress. Yet we refuse to look at what we are. We think that continuing to do what we are doing will somehow magically relieve our stress someday. How is that working?

Weakness is the root cause of fear:
A weak mind is prone to fear. Fear is another name for ghosts. A stout mind has energy. Energy is another name for God.
Fear springs from weakness. The man, who happens to be weak, has a heart which can not but tremble with fear. If a man is free from ... Views: 1376

“I just have to get this article done tonight.” The world might come to an end if I don’t. No one ever told me I had to get it done.

Respect. It’s hard to define it in words but if Google was any help here, this is what I got out of it. Respect is having an admiration for something or someone and treating that thing or person 'well'.
Now treating it or them well is easily misunderstood by all of us. A very simple example ... Views: 1372

As is our custom here in the United States, more of us travel to be with family and friends than at any other time of the year.

Manifestation is all about alignment of energy.
