I was afforded a very unique and touching opportunity this past weekend, thanks to my son Nathan. He asked me if I would be interested in going to a local book signing on Saturday afternoon, and as a fan of pretty much all books and those who are brave enough to undertake the task of writing them, I was eager to attend. But what I quickly learned was that this was no ordinary book signing.…
When its all been said and done, make sure… You’ve lived your life to the fullest. To have given your all to your dreams. You’re fulfilled from offering all the love you could give to your neighbors and others. To be ascertained that those that have seen the light in you received healings through it. That someday, when you leave here, you’re leaving with NO regret. You became that positive change people wanna see. You’ve…
I’m sure you have gotten to the point where you are just tired of doing the same thing over and over and over again. You are about to go crazy having the same dull routine. You have this desire to shake things up a bit. Yet you don’t know what you want to do. Think about all the things you have been wanting to do, the places you want to go. Write it down…
LOVE simply is; GOD. The LOVE he has had and still having towards us will be eternally continual and unconditional. In this same vein, he (God) expects us to LOVE others (including ourselves ) in a way he’s shown us, LOVE.

Be careful what you wish for is a good bit of advice, but it should also include the clue that you must be smart enough to know when your wish is granted. Sometimes the “wrapping” can conceal exactly what you wanted. But you must have faith and unwrap what you have, to discover your true gift.
No one’s work is perfect, not the artist, not the writer, not the doctor, and not the person who washes your car. And that is because none of us are perfect. Our work reflects who we are, our work ethic, our beliefs, and even our faults and shortcomings. But it is that true mirror of ourselves which provides the personality in our work and allows others to appreciate it and connect with it, as another…
I believe that the longer we spend on our journey, the more we come to understand about this world, the purpose behind our journey and yourselves. When we are young, we each have a mental image for our own future that we can close our eyes and visualize. It is a perfect piece of artwork, with a neat frame and each tiny brush stroke or etched detail is crisp and precise. But as we age…
Always strive to be the best person that you can be and find your happiness in that achievement.
Your life is your own work of art and it is yours to create in any manner that brings you happiness. Some days might resemble a classic masterpiece while others look more like a child’s finger painting project but it is up to you and what you wish to create. Never be afraid to color outside the lines or make a bold statement with vivid colors and strong brush strokes.
Know when to say no and when to rest. Don’t put so much pressure on yourself to make others happy. Don’t push yourself so hard that you risk burning out. I know this from personal experience. I have a client who has been asking me to dog-sit the past two Sundays even though I have told her I need to rest on the weekends. I have said yes the past two Sundays but this…
