As parents, we are not meant to bury our own children. We are just not wired to make peace with seeing the product of our love and nurturing taken from this world. Once you have given that piece of your heart to your offspring, it is meant to outlive you. Because when that child’s heart stops beating, any parent left behind on this earth is forced to endure pain and heartache with every breath. Until…
Use your life challenges and experiences to gain empathy and understanding. Don’t let them harden your heart and soul to turn you into someone who is judgmental and hurtful to others.
Share your past challenges not to elevate other’s opinions of you for all that you have overcome. Instead, use your history to help others find the strength and confidence to rise above their challenges.

Humans can also become encrusted by the daily grind, and it takes a little while to…
The most amazing gift we humans have been given is our ability to grow. We are living, breathing creatures who are meant to learn and change throughout our lifetime. Embrace your ability to become a better person and appreciate that those around you are working towards the same goal.
Records are never set by the timid. Go out and push yourself. Be bold. Be brave. And have faith in yourself and your abilities. Set the bar so high that others are inspired to work harder and find new dedication to become the best that they can be.
Every obstacle in your life has a purpose or lesson to teach. The goal might be to teach you to think outside the box, learn to see from a new perspective, or make peace with a change in plans. You might be meant to learn patience, understanding, or even empathy. Or this might simply be another opportunity to look in the mirror and see all of the potential that lies within your heart.You will overcome…
Think back to your childhood and being punished for something that you did wrong. How many times were you told to go to your room and just think about what you did and why it was wrong?
