We love happy endings to movies, don’t we? Hallmark has perfected this. Do you know why we love these movies? It’s because we want restoration, we want happy endings in our lives…we want to know order will be restored and everything will make sense in the world. These movies give us hope that they are possible.
Trust Me!
Placing trust in another person is the highest honor we can give them. If trust is ever compromised, it’s hard to get back…
Free Yourself…
Is there someone in your life you need to forgive? Perhaps an ex, a parent, or even yourself? Forgiveness is hard. We hold onto past hurts, giving them life, but keeping the pain inside hurts us. It robs us of living fully today.

I love the quiet of early morning. Peace and quiet allows me to gather my thoughts, communicate with our Creator and prepare to face the world. No one can rob you of your peace, unless you allow them to…
Oxymorons…
Everything we find humor in has an element of truth to it. Such as my favorite oxymoron:government efficiency!
Speaking of humor, I believe it’s important that we be able to laugh at ourselves. All of us have done some hilariously funny things. Our ability to look at ourselves and laugh is a reflection of our self confidence. Think about it,,,
