If you are in a Hole…

Stop digging. We all get into a hole, once in a while, but hashing and re-hashing why we got into it, or how bad it feels to be in it, gets us nowhere. We need to change our thoughts into…how to get out of our Hole. Simple as that…just “spin” our thoughts and focus towards… Read more »

We are self healing machines…

And we need to understand there are limitations to matter. We are designed to heal our selves within normal limits. We need to take care of our selves in ways that will help our bodies stay healthy. We all know that we need to drink water for fluid, eat good foods so that our body… Read more »

There is an old saying…

“We speak ourselves into existence”. And that saying doesn’t only mean what we say to ourselves from the outside, but the inside self talk too. So what is our situation?

There is only one color red…

But a world of different shades. The same goes with the people in our lives – they may be limited in number, and we see them as one “color”, but what are the different “shades” that make them up? What are their dreams? What’s their favorite movie or book and why? If they could do… Read more »

When we can’t seem to…
