When I was younger, and ironically enough thought that I had all the answers, I spent a great deal of time, effort and energy trying to force open doors and follow a path that was not meant to be mine. I was certain that with enough effort and determination, I could make that path my own. But it was not until many years later that I achieved the wisdom that was needed to embrace the…

Everyone has their own “happy place” and should visit it as often as possible! We all deserve a break to relax, think, not think or just let the mind wander… my place is definitely a beach or on a reef if I can get to a dive spot. But the important part is remembering to take that much needed time to recharge. You will not fall further behind by taking a break as it will…
The coexistence of every one of us with one another has been quite two-sided; lowly peaceful and highly hateful, in our cohabitations. We, in most cases, want to hold on to people’s fault against us, wanting to keep a perfect relationship amongst ourselves to a state of hate at any instance of imperfection from our fellow man. Forgiveness (forgiving one another) is an important attribute we as a whole should clamor for, yearn to possess…
It’s hard for me to believe that See The Good has been up and running for seven months now, but it has. And I wanted to take a few moments and say thank you to everyone who has become a part of the site in one way or another. I am very fortunate to have many fantastic readers who are so much more than generous with their kind words of encouragement and support. When this…
I awoke gradually at 3:15 a.m. I thought it was from the usual nocturnal nudge by my kidneys to head down the hallway. Yet, something else was nudging me. My bedspread was awash in the glow from my window. I glanced out, already knowing the generous source. The full moon was high in the sky in all her glory. I heard her speak loudly in a beckoning language, begging me to put on my glasses,…
Helping a needy person is a blessing. Whenever one helps a needy person, joy is experienced in one’s life. This joy is possible when one has a personal relationship with Jesus. Experiencing joy whenever serving a needy person is possible for all. But who is the needy person? A needy person could be he who is sick and requires someone to run some errands for him. Maybe your neighbour cannot buy the necessary food for…
As I sit and look out the window at the rain, I am reminded of something my father once told me. He was an avid outdoorsman and loved to be outside enjoying a nice day, so it always struck me as odd that he also liked to sit inside and watch the rain. Most of the time, he was not interested in just sitting anywhere and especially not indoors. But he told me that it…
Find the things in this world that lift your spirit, bring you happiness, provide a feeling of accomplishment and make you feel loved and appreciated. In just about every case, these are not things at all. They are the people and places that fill your life with meaning. But they are the true treasures of your world. Seek them out, embrace them, cherish them and be thankful for them. And remember that not everyone has…
