THE HEART BOND
There's an Indian myth. When the world was created and all the
people and animals were present, suddenly there was an
earthquake. It started to rend the world in half, splitting the

We feel intuitively that we have a special bond with dogs, cats
and other mammals. There's a scientific basis for this as well,
and it's called a 'limbic connection.' Read more about this ...

Being raised in a household without a mother or a father can be
traumatic for a young girl. If no one cares enough about you to
come into your life to 'finish' or offer guidance where your
parent(s) left off you are a lost soul.
As I mentioned in my story Zenobia's Life Lessons, my mother
passed away when I was a young girl of twelve and unfortunately,
I never knew my dad. My mother knew that her illness was
terminal therefore, given the time that she had left, she would
explain everything ...

The mind is the molder of our personal and communal world.
Every event we perceive through our senses is analyzed, evaluated and registered in the mind as pleasant, unpleasant or neutral. Our belief systems seek to determine whether each perceived input is something, which will "protect" or "endanger" our security, self-worth and / or freedom.
When life's events are interpreted by our programmed mind as threatening, fearful or unpleasant, we experience a state of anxiety and tension. When ...

We had spent a fortune on our wedding (sound familiar?) and wanted to locate the lovely, fun, romantic places that would accommodate, well... cheap honeymoons.

PERCEPTION
A friend of mine said to me one evening, 'this is what I admire
about you, whenever you say you're gonna to do something, you do
it'! People always ask me how do I stay motivated? How do I stay
encouraged? Whenever I am asked this question my answer is
always the same. I tell them that I stay focused and motivated
by remaining in an autopilot mode. However, when I ponder that
question on a deeper spiritual level, I come to the realization
that the true answer is much more involved ...

What great rewards we can receive when we let life guide us on
our path to purpose. Moments and situations seem to flow with a
distinct pattern and insight without the force of our own hands.

fact the opposite is said to be true. There is always footwork
