Interview With Lori Anderson

Every 13 seconds in America there is a divorce. In the time it takes for a couple to recite their wedding vows, there have been nine divorces. Something isn’t working because the divorce rate rises for second and third marriages, reaching as high as 82%!
Lori Anderson married her high school sweetheart. Divorce never entered her mind…until she got a divorce. In 2013, Lori wrote her first book, “Divorce with Grace. A Book of Hope & Healing.” In the book, Lori gets deeply personal, sharing her story of heartbreak, confusion and pain. Throughout the book, Lori gives the reader steps to take in their lives to heal and eventually…thrive after divorce.

Direction

We must asked ourselves this question: Am I going in the direction of where I want my life to turn out? We do have a choice to change directions if the answer is no. Change might cause some discomfort, yet traveling down an unknown road is exciting. Be brave. Take the step…

Transformation

Recently, we began a new year. This is a time where people decide they want to make changes in their lives, and “leave the old behind.”

Real transformation happens when we are ready and willing to change. It can’t be forced, and change is available to us every day, not just at the beginning of a new year. Our mindset will determine our outcome…

Really?

We are living in a unique period in time. We have news shoved in our faces 24/7, immediate home delivery of everything from groceries to alcohol, and we can reach our friends on the phone anytime…anywhere.

With these luxuries comes great responsibility. We are still called to work, be respectful and courteous to our fellow man, and raise our children the right way in a world that’s new to us. We cannot let decency die out as technology dominates our lives. Be kind. Always…

Trials

Trials are placed in our lives to grow us…to strengthen us. We have a choice when faced with challenges: we can rise to the challenge or we can shrink from it. To rise, think of the trials of life as opportunities. It might not make what you are going through any easier, but it gives purpose to the challenge…

Broken…

When a car breaks down, we get it repaired. Why don’t we fix ourselves?

All of us are broken in some way. Our lives might look good, even perfect on social media, but we hide our true selves. All of us have past hurts, pain, unresolved issues and great memories. This makes us who we are.

We can fix our emotional brokenness through self-work. People avoid this kind of work because it’s hard to really look at yourself, your flaws and patterns which don’t serve you well. But doing the hard work on yourself is so worthwhile. Take the first brave step to freedom. And keep going…

Dreams…

We seek fulfillment in our hearts through the power of our dreams. When the day arrives that you discover your true purpose, nothing in the universe can stop you except yourself. There will be plenty of critics, naysayers and dream killers along the way, but pay no attention to them. This is your dream. Seek guidance from the Creator, get started and keep going…

The Voiceless…

Speak up for those who feel like they don’t have a voice. Stand your ground for what’s right, even if you have to stand alone. There’s no honor in “going with the flow” if that path leads to sorrow. There are many people who are in pain, desperately trying to find hope. Be their light in the darkness…
