Abraham said, "If people would simply pay attention to the harmony or disharmony within themselves, they would be able to eliminate the arduous and impossible task of trying to control the behavior of others." We cannot control anyone but ourselves. We cannot control anyone else's thoughts, actions, words or beliefs. We can only control the [...]
Everything can be lost. Appreciate your life. Appreciate your blessings. Appreciate what you have RIGHT now. Stop wishing your today's away for a better tomorrow. Make today the best it can be. Stay mindful of everyone and everything around you. Take it in. Breathe it in. Enjoy it. This day cannot be duplicated. This day [...]
I used to be a planner. I would try to plan everything. It wasn't until my spiritual adviser enforced in me time and time again that plans really don't ever work out because sh*t happens, life happens, it is what it is and it's out of your control. When my plans never panned out I [...]
None of us are perfect. There are a lot of us that strive for perfection and it's usually the ones that do, that fall time and time again because though we all realize no one can be perfect, there's something in a "perfectionist's" brain that makes them think they can still achieve it.

You can't love others unless you love yourself first and if you [...]
Never be afraid to learn something new! Never be afraid to admit you are wrong. Finding errors in your thinking or understanding is more intelligent then pretending we have all the answers. No one does - not even myself. It's not always easy to admit, but a little humility will provide you opportunities to grow [...]
When we're blocked by our own negativity we often don't see things the way we should. Better yet I know we don't see things the way we should. When you're grounded in your own spirit, you are able to see the energies you should surround yourself with. The ones that mirror yours. The ones that [...]
We think we're in control when we're really not. That's why we often get upset when things don't go the way we planned. They were never going to go the way WE planned - they were always going to go the way God planned. The way they were meant to go. Throw out your plans. [...]
How many times have you heard someone say, "But I'm just one person, I can't make a difference." The realization is this though: You are just one person, but spiritually we are all one. That means energetically we're all connected. What you do/say/think, yes you, causes an energetic ripple effect throughout the world. Just like a drop [...]
