Creative Writing > Essays Essays: Emotions: 3 of 16
How do you feel? How do you feel right now? I'm not referring to how you feel physically. (If you're like me, you might be a little under the weather, but let's never mind that.) How are you feeling emotionally? That is a question of huge importance. For, how you're feeling right now is a precise indicator of how aligned you... More..
Religion & Spirituality > Self-Healing Forms of forgiveness: 2 of 10
We probably all agree that forgiveness is a desirable process. It's especially good for the person doing the forgiving, as they are no longer mired in anger, resentment, and maybe even hatred. Regularly thinking unhappy thoughts about anyone disallows the well-being that is naturally ours from flowing to us and sets us up, v... More..

When DNA Gets Twisted I was sitting placidly at my computer, doing work and/or reading email jokes, when teenage Emily (possibly not her real name) stomped into my room. "I'm going to lay down some ground rules," she bellowed. "About what?" I asked. "And, by the way, aren't I the one who's supposed to say that to you?" "Mom!... More..
Religion & Spirituality > Spiritual Insights Spiritual Burnout: 5 of 24
If you've encountered and perused a wide variety of spiritual teachings with differing perspectives, you might be feeling confused and overwhelmed. I got that distinct impression from a question that was recently submitted to my blog. Well, I've been there, done that, and got the spiritual confusion t-shirt. It was pea-green... More..

HOW TO DRESS FOR ROMANTIC SUCCESS "Do you ever get embarrassed by anything you wear, Mom?" my son Joel, 26, asked with chagrin as we recently trekked around Parrot Jungle Island in Miami. He referred to my "urban sombrero," a sun hat with a huge brim that, amazingly, folds up into a little pouch that I carry in my purse. I s... More..

Help Wanted: Non-Pregnant Paper Boy I've been thinking about taking early retirement. "What are you going to retire FROM, Mom?" my son, Joel, currently in law school, asked recently. (I wish he'd save his questions for the accused.) "You haven't ever worked!" he declared. Those were fightin' words. I admit I haven't made it ... More..

God Is a Guy O.K., we all suspect there is a God. Who else pops up that next Kleenex? And now the verdict is in concerning God's gender. God is a guy. Does it really come as a surprise? Who but a male God would create a world full of dust particles? Who but a masculine God would bless men by giving them small rumps? Who but ... More..
Religion & Spirituality > Self-Healing Reasons for forgiveness: 7 of 31
Forgiveness Forever If there is a person or situation that I've been unable to forgive, I let those thoughts and resulting feelings go now. If they return, I release them again. If they return two hundred times, I release them two hundred times. If the situation calls for some action on my part, I do so calmly and respectful... More..
Religion & Spirituality > Spiritual Insights Achieving peace of mind: 16 of 70
CHOOSE INNER PEACE If I notice myself thinking thoughts of lack, limitation, anger, or discouragement, I let them go. If I find myself scurrying frantically through life, I slow down-stop, even-until I regain composure. When I notice bodily tension, I deliberately release it. I realize now that reacting to life in old knee-j... More..
Religion & Spirituality > Setting Life Goals Why you can't get what you want: 23 of 97
There's a book with the powerfully compelling title, Where Is God When It Hurts? I asked that question repeatedly when, as a deeply committed Christian, I was diagnosed with Stage 4-b cancer. I couldn't figure out where I'd gone wrong, and I couldn't figure out why God would allow such an experience to befall me. I felt angr... More..
