Life Review
Have you ever heard someone say they died and had an experience and then came back? They are called NDE’s or Near-Death Experiencers. A lot of them say that while they are on the other side, they experience something called a “life review.” During this review of their lives, they get to see some of…

What’s Coming In 2025: Did You Feel The Earthquake?
Is something bad coming this year? I’m sure you’ve heard some rumors too. Earthquakes, World War III, or maybe another viral virus is own it’s way. I’m old enough to remember when the world was going to collapse in the year 2000 (Y2K). I was scared to go to work that week. I was working…

The Power of Forgiveness: Letting Go of Grudges
You’ve probably heard it said, “Holding on to anger is like grabbing a hot coal to throw it at someone else, but you’re the one who gets burned.” (Paraphrasing a quote attributed to Buddha.) Life is hard enough without holding on to grudges. We free ourselves when we let go and let God. When we…

Harnessing Emotions for Personal Growth
I had a lot of feelings growing up. I listened to the same love songs over and over again. I used to drive my sister crazy, I think. When I was 9 or 10 years old, the song I loved most was “Reunited” by Peaches and Herb. I don’t know why. I had all these…

The Hero’s Journey
Is God punishing us? Are we weak, insignificant and powerless? Maybe you want to do the right thing. You want to be patient and kind. You want to love others; only to find yourself pushing others away to keep from being hurt again. You want to understand — why? Why can’t people just live and…

Not Everyone Wants to Play Nice In the Sandbox

The more dangerous ones have mastered their techniques and can fool the most vigilant people who’ve already been affected by this personality type. I feel it’s important to include this message in this blog, because you can…

Losing Someone or Something
I’m sorry if you’ve just lost something – like a job, or worse. Maybe you’ve recently lost someone. We lose people for various reasons. It could be through irreconcilable differences, distance, or even death. The pain of losing someone or something can feel excruciating. Loss is something we all must face in this lifetime —…

Pain Into Power
No matter what happens in our lives, we will be okay. We must remember this life is not always meant to be easy. If it were easy, we would be weak. We weren’t made to be weak. We were made to be strengthened. We were made to experience, learn, and grow. At times the growth…

I’m Sorry
I’m sorry. And I’m not just saying that because you told me to say it. I truly am sorry. I’m sorry I failed you as a mother. I’m sorry you had to live with divorced parents. I’m sorry you didn’t feel the love I have for you. I’m sorry I couldn’t share that with you…

No God, No Love
Have you seen Gavin Newsom’s interviews? Notice the way he shifts blame for the recent fires; the way he doesn’t seem to care at all about the people he serves in California. He seems proud when he speaks of the “Marshall Plan” to rebuild LA 2.0. He seems to have no compassion for human beings…
