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.

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..

Other What are some good bumper stickers you've seen?: 10 of 40
Yes, This Is My Truck. No, I Won't Help You Move Sometimes I fear for the future of this country. We're just too gall-darned serious. How do I know that? For openers, you can drive for miles and never see a funny bumper sticker these days. That equals countless blas bumpers and missed opportunities to send fellow travelers i... More..
Jobs & Careers > Professionalism The pitfalls of too much positive thinking: 3 of 12
Thanks to a friend for this question: "Am I to understand that a person should never feel a sad emotion? Like say if your loved one is dying or in the hospital? If so, I don't agree with that. We are all human and feeling a lower vibration of emotion at times like that is only normal. I wouldn't want to be a zombie who never... More..
Creative Writing > Humor Humor: House hunting: 1 of 4
Room for Rent It tripped me. A neighborhood house with a "For Sale" sign stuck its foot out in the street and tripped me. And then it beckoned, "Come and buy me, Dearie." Never being one to ignore the commands of large inanimate objects, I pulled into the driveway. It so happened that the owner of the home was exiting her va... More..
Creative Writing > Humor Humor: Christmas greetings: 1 of 4
Getting Carded at Christmas For years, I sent out photocopied Christmas letters with my Christmas cards. The letters contained the usual updates on each family member plus zany hand-drawn, crayon-colored (I'm low-tech) illustrations. My elderly mother, now in heaven finding ways to criticize the harp playing of the angels, w... More..

A friend asked this pertinent question: "If the main thing is to think happy thoughts, why do we all have so many problems doing it on a regular basis? Is it like exercising? We know that it's good for us, but most of us have problems doing it regularly! Even people who have done what it takes to lose excess weight, they go ... More..
