The Greatest Experience Ever
I’ve been feeling a bit depressed lately. I’ve been praying for more help from God. I don’t understand and I don’t have to understand the things that are happening in my life. The pain that I feel, my suffering, it’s all a part of the plan. There’s always a reason. The world makes more sense […]
Fast Results
I realize that I often expect fast results. I’m devestated by failure. I get my hopes too high too quick. An alternative way to go about things is to go slow and steady. Do a bit less each day so that I can walk at a more natural pace, but more sustainable. Do less but […]

Observations for Today
You run a tight ship. Take the time to pause and examine when you feel stressed, uncomfortable, or unsure. You tend to act out of panic and are driven to do things sometimes that are not what you want. It’s also ok ot show your flaws. It’s tiring to constantly try to be perfect. It […]
Should I follow my intuition?
The idea of following intuition is attractive yet perplexing to me. What does it actually mean to follow our intuition and feelings? Does it mean throwing thinking out all together? I think most people mean lead with feeling and intuition and the logic will come later. But as someone who has experienced strong emotions such […]
