Whatever happened to manners???? Where did please and thank you and you’re welcome go? And what happened to a simple acknowledgement of  something received? Why is it so not necessary to sincerely express them? I know I’m giving away my age with these questions but… whatever happened to these simple kindnesses? While my questions may sound like […]

Do you get caught in ‘proving’? Proving defined as a visible demonstration of … whatever you are wanting (needing) to prove. Reality says that the proving is primarily for yourself – not for others. This can become a block or stumbling stone if you feel that it is mandatory to be able to demonstrate. This also

some would say, starts at home. But that’s only one of the end results of charity – it really begins in the heart and expands outward. Charity has to be expressed. Spiritually, most definitions use love and charity interchangeably. For some reason the secular definition of the two words are related but separated – I will follow the spiritual basis. Charity is defined

I’ve never been particularly fond of ‘down’ time or the ‘in between’ time. In between time is defined as that time between ‘projects’ or the ‘down’ time.

There are killers that will attempt to take your life. Actually they aren’t subtle at all, they blatantly attempt to direct how you look at life. They go under the names of: bitterness, blame, self hatred and a few others.
