We each have a role to play in this grand experiment of life. Is our role written out for us? Do we have a script we have to adhere to? Or do we have free will to act as we choose?

Perhaps our best friend, when we are working at moving past our ingrained perspectives, is uncertainty. In the past, we were so sure that we knew what was "truth" and that things were as they appeared to be.

Our perception of others is often tainted by judgments and preconceived opinions. This means that we do not see the person themselves. Rather, we see what we think they are...

Gratitude is a great leveler of experiences. When we can get to the point where we are grateful for all our experiences, "good" and "bad", we've come to the point where we have moved beyond our personal perspective.

It is time to break out of all negativity and restraints and clear the way for a new way of being... first in our mind and heart, then in our thoughts and attitudes, and then in our actions.

Our breath is the source of life. When we stop breathing, we die. To life fully and at our best, we need to breathe consciously and completely...

We each have our individual experiences, frame of reference, and opinions. This creates our own unique perspective on our surroundings and on life in general.

Oftentimes, we are a bit like a horse wearing blinders. We only see what is directly in front of us. Yet to attain a dream or a goal, we have to look beyond the immediate or the obvious.

So many things in life are coated in mystery. Life itself is a mystery, and it is can be seemingly impossible for us to understand the meaning of what is taking place. But the signposts and guiding lights are always present. We...

One of the tools we use for attaining "spiritual perfection" is reflection. Usually, in a spiritual perspective, reflection is seen as the art of going within and reflecting on life, on self, on being here now.

The dark night of the soul is an experience that may appear to be negative and unnecessary. Yet, is it? 

As spiritual beings, which we all are, we seek to attain perfection, to attain our fullness of being. And as with many things, the process is not always smooth and/or flawless.

Being proud of yourself - of your accomplishments and of who you are - is an act of self-love, of self-appreciation, and of gratitude for life itself. Part of our growth process is acknowledging our successes, not just our failures.

We all deserve to succeed at whatever we set our hearts on. Deservability just means playing your cards right -- with knowledge, intuition, trust, love, and gratitude.

Our intuition is our constant companion in this journey of life. It is our very best friend and is there to help us along the way.

When nighttime comes, if we didn't know any better, we'd think we were doomed. Yet because we know that day always follows night, we don't worry about the sun disappearing off the edge of the earth.

Everything in life has its timing, its flow, its rhythm. Nature's is more obvious of course due to its predictability - day and night (24 hours), lunar cycle (28 days), year (365 days except for leap year), the four seasons, etc.

Much of our wisdom comes from our own inner voice. This is the voice that speaks before the "buts", "ifs", and doubts of any kind. It is usually kind, loving, and looking for a peaceful resolution.

By continually seeking new experiences, new knowledge and gaining new wisdom, we continue to grow towards the true fulfilment of our being and our purpose.

We all have a role to play in the lives of the people around us. Because we are all connected, our highest dreams and visions are also connected.

The life we create, day by day, is based on our hopes and dreams. However, our dreams also include the nightmarish stories we tell ourselves about the future.

Lighting up our heart with love can make the darkness disappear in our life and the lives of those around us.

What we listen to, and what we pay attention to, shapes our experience of life. And this includes the chatter going on in our head.
