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 […]
Now, don’t get me wrong, I’ve always been a sucker for a good fairy tale. Just like millions of others, I grew up knowing the stories of Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, and all the other super-star princesses, and I loved them all. The girl is in trouble and then, Prince Charming rides in to carry her […]
Celestine Vision Staff Notes: We continue to learn how humans use power and control in relationships to gain security, as humans primarily feel lost and insecure in the world.
