Compassion = E to the 4th Power

Every once in a while, you come across a saying, a quote, or just some words that create amazing clarity and give you a way to articulate what you are feeling. That happened this morning for me. I was trolling the internet, reading different quotes or stories that were about being happy, controlling only your…

Here I go again…

Oh boy, tough week. My frustration came through a few times this week. I allowed a lot of things to bother me and then reacted poorly. I took an approach with each situation that wasn’t me at my best; it wasn’t me in alignment with who I am. It was me feeling inadequate. It was…

Soul Understood?

First, I felt the lump in my throat, I could not swallow.  Then the tear’s sprang to my eyes and I felt the first teardrop slide down my cheek. “I’m homesick for a place I’m not sure even exists, where my heart is full, my body loved And my soul understood” I read this over…

Wings to fly…

I host a Super Bowl party each year. Generally my closest friends and some of their children show up and we eat and drink. A lot! There is never a shortage of food or alcohol and we critique and watch the game and commercials. When the Giants are in it we are much more serious…

control is an illusion…

Confusion comes from over-thinking and over-managing life. Clarity comes from letting go of trying to work everything out and being present enough to see the guidance that life is already giving you. ~Sandy C. Newbigging   I have a good friend who often reminds me that “control is an illusion.” We have very little.  We…

Blatant Disregard

I commute and drive a lot. I drive 44 miles to my office in Newark, New Jersey and 135 miles to my office in Shelton, Connecticut…one way. I also drive 52 miles one way to my Pennsylvania office, just not as often. I drive to my parents, I drive to the food store, I drive,…

My Own Best Friend…

I have finally become my own best friend. I now trust myself, my instincts, I listen to myself more. This became very clear to me over the last few weeks, maybe months. But it crystalized with a conversation with Gina, my happiness guide, my life coach, my soul sister, my friend. She re-frames things so…
