What is happening in your life today is a result of your own decisions and actions. This applies to all our decisions and actions – present and past. There is no one else to blame.

Most people don’t understand that every thought we have and every action creates karma and shapes our destiny. All of our thoughts have wings. If your thoughts are positive, then you will create good karma and positive outcomes in your life. If they are negative then you will create bad karma, and unwanted outcomes.

So, basically, if you look at your life you see the results of your choices and decisions. Whatever your life is today, it is what you have manifested, with or without your knowing, by your own thoughts, and actions. Read the rest of this entry »

What is your true self-value as opposed to your willingness to lose or give up your personal truth, in order to have what you may think you need?

Sometimes we have to look within ourselves and ask really hard questions. One of the really hard questions is: what are you willing to do or not do for your own self-worth.

This dilemma is often seen in situations where someone holds on to a relationship that has run its course. Many times in life we have people who come in for a reason or a season, and during the times that they come into our lives they are there to teach us lesson in life. But then the time also comes for them to move on, and for us to let them go. Read the rest of this entry »

Responsibility is something we learn from a young age. It starts with simple things, like learning how to brush our own teeth as small children, and as we grow up, so does the responsibility.

Now, as adults, we are in a place of responsibility where all we know from the day to day is duties and chores like washing the dishes, cooking dinner, running carpool and, of course, that ‘little’ issue called work. Let’s also not for forget about the things that run in the back of your head, like the gas bill, the monthly house payment and all the other things that just keep coming.

The question is what are we really responsible for on a spiritual level? Are we responsible for all of our live experiences? Read the rest of this entry »

Every relationship in our lives must have a foundation of some kind. But what are the important fundamentals of such a foundation for any relationship? What, I have found is that every relationship requires Friendship, Honesty, Love and Respect as its core foundation. Without these pillars the relationship is always able to adapt and grow with any changes in the wind of life.

Sometimes we come across people who have learned to hide their true character, and have learned to lie about their moral and spiritual nature, in order to have a partnership that they feel they will personally gain from. What that person is really doing is hurting the other person one a very deep emotional level. They are building a relationship on fake values, morals and beliefs. What they have truly done is steal the other person’s zest for life and moral values and beliefs. They have stolen their life, their joy. Read the rest of this entry »

<< Part 1 – When Change Is In The Wind

Intention is one of the most important steps of changing your own present circumstances. Intention lets you take responsibility for your own future. In order to have intention one must understand where you want to be. Setting a action plan in place is key.

Preparation or contemplation was the stage where you have started to change your behaviors and attitude to your current circumstances, and you are working on accomplishing your goals. At this time it’s very important to let yourself be flexible in your day to day life, while you are trying to make the transition become natural.

The next step is the action stage. This is when you are really working on moving forward and your goals are in place. Read the rest of this entry »

We all go through change in our lives, from the time that we are young. We learn how to adapt to change. There are stages for us to be able to recognize the changes that we are about to undertake.

Pre-contemplation stage is a stage where you know that you may need to change, but you’re not sure how. It can also be change that you have tried before, but you did not have enough will power to make the change happen. One may feel that change is going to happen, but you’re not completely sure what must change.

Some people will stay in this stage, until the universe steps in and makes external changes for us in forms of relationship problems, family pressure, and job loss. Then it’s a place where we are forced to make changes in our lives. Read the rest of this entry »

I wanted to share with you one of my favorite holiday traditions.

We all have people in our lives that we do not get to see, or spend time with as much as we would like to. During the Christmas holiday season is one of the only times throughout the year that we see some of dearest friends or family.

If you’re anything like me you like to try and make everyone feel special and find them something that they may enjoy, so that it creates a warm, lasting memory for them.

I love to give bayberry candles as a gift. True bayberry candles are handcrafted taper candles and the tradition goes back to the first settlers.

When the first settlers came to America, everything was in short supply. One of the things they needed was candles. Almost all of the candles were made of tallow (animal fat), which tends to smoke and give off an odor. Read the rest of this entry »

What is forgiveness? Forgiveness is a decision. It is the act of being willing to let go of your past and letting yourself move on with your life.

Some people view forgiving as an act of weakness, but it actually provides you with strength and freedom. When we hold on to grudges, hatred or resentment towards anyone we will ultimately do a great deal of damage to ourselves.

Forgiveness is about freeing yourself from what has happened to you. What we have to understand is that what has happened to us is in our past, and it will remain a part of our past, and that’s okay. But we are not living in the past. When we think about issues from our past and they still bring pain to us today, then we have not truly forgiven. Read the rest of this entry »
