People want to know what that one thing is that they are supposed to do. That one thing that is going to make everything click. That one thing that makes it all make sense, that gets rid of the nagging doubts, the unsatisfied feeling, the need to look for something more. To which I say…
We’re taught that emotions come from one place in the body kinda in the same way that we’re taught a heart is actually heart-shaped instead of this oval muscular organ. Emotions supposedly “come from the heart” and yet that’s not where we actually feel them most of the time. We feel heartbroken when we have…
It is now officially October (Or the Christmas holiday in half the stores across America) and everything is changing. The weather is moving into fall or in full swing depending on where you are.

They want a community, a family of…

No matter how committed we are, no matter how much we strive, the nature of life is more Fibonacci than number line, more Hokey Pokey than line dancing. 🙂 Which means that no matter how well you’re doing or how far you’ve gotten, periodically you’ve got to pause, take…
