Let it go
Is it really that important, anyway? What do we mean by “let it go”? Well, Merriam Webster defines it as “to forget or not care about something”. They also define the idiom by, “to sell something (for a specified amount)”. I’m focusing on the former. I don’t have anything to sell to you at this […]
Today is its own time
Don’t think about tomorrow. Live in the moment, and take a deep breath. Mindfulness is just as helpful as meditation. Spend a minute taking inventory. How are you feeling? Pause. Take a vacation from your phone, from your computer, from watching TV. Quiet your mind. If it refuses to be quiet, let the thoughts pass […]
Kindness Matters
Lately, there’s been a lot of division in the United States, not to mention Europe. It seems a breakout of hatred has spawned around us, particularly on Social Media and the mainstream news.

Keeping Positive
It was Richard Bach who said, “We magnetize into our lives whatever we hold in thought.” The answers you seek are inside of you. Start by believing in yourself, and if you are having a bad day, turn your thoughts towards what is going right, and focus on how it can get better. Positive thinking […]
Seeking Calm
I won’t lie, in the past I’ve not had the luxury of living in a place where my life was not filled with noisy neighbors. I used to live in an apartment complex on the top floor, and a man lived in the place below me. His home was like a revolving hotel with The […]
