Food For Thought: Acceptance

I strive each day to practice acceptance of all things and all people in my life, no matter how difficult it may be in some trying circumstances. As in all things in life, some days are easier than others…

Acceptance requires tolerance, understanding, compassion and empathy. To be accepting of others, I know must be tolerant of their differences in thoughts and beliefs.

Acceptance is in fact, key to love and love heals all…

Food For Thought: Shitstorm or Change?

When life deals you a large plate of problems all the same time, you feel as though your life has been hit with what some people might call, a major shitstorm.

While in fact a slew of problems swirling around you may feel as though it is a shitstorm, to make your way through that shitstorm, you need to turn your thinking around and recognize that each struggle and each loss, represents change.

When you get that the struggles and loss are change, you begin to stop grieving and move forward. Ultimately we all need to move forward in life no matter what we are going through or struggling with.

Start out each day, one foot in front of the other… Keep moving forward, the storm will clear in time and you will have found a new sense of strength and calm.

Food For Thought: Prosperity and Abundance

In the past few years the economy has been challenging and difficult for so many people, including myself. I know that when I worry about whether I have enough to cover my living expenses, I block the flow of prosperity and abundance. Sometimes we all need a little re-minding…

Today, I will not worry about what I need, I will focus on what I have, with gratitude in my heart. Abundance coexists with the grace of knowing that I have everything I need, right here, right now. When I rest in that knowledge, I open up the channels to give and to receive.  ~ Pamela Leavey

There is a place that makes everyone’s heart sing and lifts their spirit like a balm that soothes the pain. In that place we find comfort and joy.

Food For Thought: Along the Trail

Along the trail we see so many things that fill us with awe and wonder. Nature fills our souls and fuels us on our path in life. Never rush along the path… Take the time to appreciate the simple, yet complex gifts of nature. In that wandering along the trail, we are released of all stress and anxiety and find inner peace to bring with us on the walk of life.
