The Thanksgiving Holiday is important because it calls us to a higher Consciousness. It reminds us of the Creative Force of Gratitude. Of course, we awaken to this creative force in different ways. Sometimes we awaken to gratitude when we are overjoyed at the abundance of our lives and are thankful. Just as often it […]
Prayer works, but you have to try it to believe it. The problem is most of us wait until things are going badly to apply prayer’s powers — so we miss out on the crucial day to day application of this spiritual birthright. That’s correct; prayer is a birthright. I’ve found it’s a force built […]
Hundreds of movies and songs have pointed to it. Books and poems have alluded to it. Religions have embraced it: love is all the world needs to solve its problems. Yet, for most of the year, this message lingers in the background. Too often, we seem to forget the power of love until, thankfully… the […]
Basic to personal and spiritual growth is feeling confident, and thus knowing what to say and when to act, as we pursue our lives.

I am talking about connecting with a loving, tangible force deep within that feels undoubtedly spiritual […]
And Keep It Forever I have to be truthful here and tell you something up front: I have had many relationships that have ended badly, mainly because of my impatience or perfectionism. But the more I embraced the idea of having a giving attitude and communicating better, the more my relationships –romantic and otherwise — […]
JAMES REDFIELD: MY STORY – I grew up a searcher. From an early age, I can remember desiring a more complete answer to life’s more puzzling questions. Sure…everyone knows we have to grow up, find a way to make a living, take care of our kids, and seek a better world. But there were larger […]
