Everything we experience, everything that happens in our lives prepares us for something else. This includes both good and bad experiences. Life truly is a journey, not a destination. Keep going…

Recall…
This morning I read where a major auto manufacturer was recalling 3 million vehicles. The recall was necessary due to something not functioning properly. Humans have recall, too. Experiences from childhood will manifest into us not functioning properly in an area of our adult lives. To correct this, we must dig into the recesses of our minds to examine, understand and free ourselves of what is causing us to misfire. This is hard, really hard work we do on ourselves.

Trouble…
