Freedom from guilt


Guilt (whether it's our own or guilt we lay on others) separates us from God, 
people, and ourselves. It steals our sense of connection, our joy, 
and our peace of mind..

Doing life


Life is about patience, forgiveness, tolerance,
continuing to grow so that we can be our best, 
and random selfless acts of kindness...

Investing ourselves in love




When we allow ourselves to judge, blame, practice a belief system that subscribes 
to guilt and punishment, our hearts are forced to live on a battleground. In taking responsibility for our part in things and no longer seeing ourselves as victims, in forgiving ourselves and others, and by practicing true compassion, our hearts will flourish and we will have put an end to the idea of war and separation...

Pure love



Love is not about choosing who give our affections to. 
It's about living with an open heart; a heart free of judgement.  
Often the hardest people to love are our best teachers.

Connecting with our inner self




We hide our pain, even from ourselves, because we don't want to feel it. 
We swallow hurt because we think showing our emotions is a sign of weakness. 
However, the definition of courage is the ability to connect with our own feelings...

we come to know freedom...

Loving all that is


Universal love is not the same as personal love. 
Universal love spills itself into every experience.
Universal love is self-love expressing itself outwardly.

Open arms



If it hurts to hang on, it's time to let go. 
Letting go doesn't necessarily mean we have to give up something. 
Sometimes, we just need to loosen our grip...

Seeing only good...



 There is beauty in all that is... The ability to see it comes from 
accepting things as they are, not as we wish them to be...

Faith




Sometimes the best thing we can do to help someone is to simply trust their journey
The kind of faith that it takes to do that comes from our ability to trust our own journey...

Aligning with our soul



If we have the good fortune to discover the things 
that speak to our soul, we then, must have the courage to 
create a life that represents what we love...

A new beginning



Fear creates a bleak little world. Bleakness creates feelings of hopelessness. How do we manage the hopelessness? We find ways to run from it through addiction. We become addicted to having fun, feeling good, chasing the feeling of happiness, love, power, achieving... How do we overcome these self-defeating habits? We begin to create something new by stepping away from these behaviors, facing whatever fears we were running from to begin with, and trust God for the rest...
