Turn Fear & Worry Upside Down

Pulling Up Anchor

Pulling Up Anchor

Recovery is going very well.  Lately I’ve started to feel as if I’m really making progress.  Receiving the okay to drive last week was a nice milestone.  Now, back behind the wheel, running the boys here and there, going to the grocery store, meeting friends for lunch, it all seems hard to believe that less than five short weeks ago I was lying in a hospital bed. So you can imagine that it throws me off a little when I run into someone who I’m seeing for the first time in months and they say something like, “How did you Continue reading >>

I’ve Even Surprised Myself with Today’s Topic

I've Even Surprised Myself with Today's Topic

No, it’s not a “Measures of Success (Me. Icing on the Cake. Orgasm.) Part 2” or anything like that — boy, did you all send me some comments on that one!  It’s just that today’s topic is something that has been written about so many times, with seemingly NO new material.  Every time I see the word, I skip past it and move on to something “better” to read.  I’ve even attended a three day seminar where an entire day was dedicated to exercise after exercise on this topic: Forgiveness. Was I right?  As soon as you read it, did Continue reading >>

Differing from Yourself 10 Years Ago

Jun 232011
 

To all who posted comments and sent me emails regarding the last TLT article, “Our BS Steers Us Away from Seeking Truth”: Thank You.  I appreciate knowing the support that exists for those who are open to learning and growing, while still acknowledging their own BS.  One friend, who I sometimes communicate with via quotes, made the following comment regarding the ‘BS’ article:  “Once you know what you believe, you can begin to question if it is true.” ~ Geneen Roth.  (Ah, nice one Nancy, and very appropriate.)  To which I responded,  “Do not think of knocking out another person’s Continue reading >>

Get Out and Stay Out!

Get Out and Stay Out!

I was recently asked how I find topics to write about week after week.  From everywhere really.  Since beginning to write for TLT, I now see the world through much different eyes.  I believe because I write about Trust and Letting go on a weekly basis, and have conversations with others about it on a daily basis, I’ve started to see Life through a lens of Trust, of Life, and of Trust Life together.  I find myself constantly applying the idea of Trust to just about anything.  So, when I was discussing Jillian Michaels‘ workouts with a friend recently, I Continue reading >>

Find Your Voice (Inspired by Maria Shriver)

Find Your Voice (Inspired by Maria Shriver)

Maria Shriver has a little gem of a book called Just Who Will You Be?  Good, short read.  It asks big questions, in a very small book.  At the end of the book she lists ten things she pledges to herself to keep her focused and centered on who she wants to be. On a side note, I found it interesting that throughout the book, she referenced several times how she was determined to find who she wanted to be, instead of who she is.  I see that as a very distinct difference, but maybe it’s just semantics.  For me, Continue reading >>
