Ever notice that we don’t step right on the doorway into a room or a building? We step from this space to that space without actually touching the door frame. Sometimes we lean on the door frame to talk with someone or wait to get someone’s attention (*cough* teenagers *cough*) but even then if you…
So what do you do when you’ve done everything you can think of and the issue is still there? When you’ve asked for guidance and keep getting the same indecipherable answer, when you’ve tried everything that is logical, unlogical, inspired and desperate, and nothing makes a dent, when the movement you get is so infinitesimal…
We’re taught that progress is the point, that going forward is good, that backwards is bad, and that we should always keep moving. Then we get stuck and can’t seem to go forwards, can’t seem to fix what’s wrong, can’t move in the direction we want to be going and everything seems to fall apart. …
Isn’t it interesting how there are times in our lives where we decide that, for some reason, the state we are in is the way it is always going to be henceforward? Even though that’s never the case because things are constantly changing inside and outside of us in every moment we’re alive? But we…

Change can be very hard. There are lots of quotes and memes about fear being the reason why we tend not to change, but I think we over emphasize that aspect of things. Also, we tend to talk about change as if everything else around us is standing still and the only thing that is…
One of the challenges in life is to balance the outside voices with our inside voice. It’s common to see this issue when you become a parent, when you have a demanding job, or when you commit to a cause or career. Different agendas are competing and it’s not about good vs. evil or right…
Emotions are meant to be felt and to move. If you don’t feel them at the moment they will come out at another place and time, not necessarily of your choosing. Even worse, if feelings aren’t acknowledged at all, they can act like teenagers, moving into the background and plotting another more extensive means of…
