What do you see?
What if the way you see the world is exactly what it is: the way YOU see the world? What if your brain filters only that which resonates with you? Last week, a friend posted on Facebook a picture of a lounge with the question where she was. To me it just was…

A good return on investment
I have been depressed for years. Being depressed, I did not feel like doing anything, and the less I did the less I felt capable of doing. There were days when coming out of bed was daunting, going to the store to buy food would equal climbing Mount Everest. Until I recognized how doing little or…

‘You can do anything you want to do.
What is rare is actually wanting to do a certain thing: wanting it so much that you are practically blind to all other things, that nothing else will satisfy you… I know I have said a lot when I say ‘You can do anything you want to do’. But I mean it… Blunder ahead with…

Seek, and you will find
Have you ever experienced all the pieces falling into place? To me, it’s what I live for. Feeling my perception shift. Knowing I’m about to take a quantum leap. Knowing the world will be different when I get to the next level. There is a sense of anticipation. I do not know what to expect, but I know…
