How Routines And Tiny Habits Lead to Big Change.
Photo by Geralt on Pixabay.com It started out as a typical day. The same old routine – Rise, Work, Eat, Sleep. Every night, my son and I typically have a “check-in” time just before he sleeps. We share a short prayer, review our highs and lows, a.k.a, his day, recalibrate and set our expectations for the next one. One fateful night, as I leaned in to kiss him goodnight, it was like kissing a…

Born Fearless - Is Fear Holding You Back?
Here is my plan for this year - get in the sandbox and play to win big. What's yours?
Do you recognize any of this in your life? Phobias, compulsions, perfectionism, fear of failure, procrastination, partial commitments to everything, over-controlling tendencies? If you do, you are not alone. We have forgotten what it was like to be children, how to live in wonder and surprise, how to stumble but get up and take another step. We have forgotten that we were born fearless. The…

Stay at Home or Go Home
Stay at Home or Go Home
Tumblr media
A lot is going on even though most of the world is on lockdown due to the Coronavirus. This COVID-19 pandemic has required that we face our apparent mortality.
Eternity, they say, is in our hearts. We are both conscious and subconscious; agents and witnesses of a sliver of this era. Otherwise, we wouldn’t have dreams, time-travel in our minds, and use words like forever & infinity. If our weight…

In the Middle
In the Middle
Do you suppose there is a hush in heaven with all the chaos here below? We are some distance from each other and the end. We are somewhere in the middle, and hope is a faithful companion for the miles ahead. We can each decide how to view this season – are we in the middle of a crisis or of an inevitable miracle? Per Emily Dickinson, “Hope is a thing with feathers that perches in…

The Servant Leader - Becoming a Solutionary P.1
The Servant Leader – Becoming a Solutionary P.1
The Servant Leader – Becoming a “Solutionary” Part 1
What is a servant’s heart? To most people, the quintessential servant’s heart is – Mother Teresa and her team of sisters in blue-piped white saris *washing the feet of the poor and sickly in Calcutta, India. An important fact is that on a train ride in 1946, she answered the “call within the call” to give up her role as Principal of Saint…

  The Makeover – A Breakup Ritual
by Ama Danesi
Does my face hiss like a repellent, will another walk away? One fizzled without reason, another from pity or naiveté described the shroud, a darkness over one’s loins and face. Shunted, his quiver melted, the promise puddled. His embrace like a scorpion’s segmented tail, hurtful.
Take me to Asiya, teach me about a lover’s face, douse me in herbal…

This is Going to Hurt
This is Going to Hurt
This is how I know my brain is functioning optimally – I might be inspired but find that I lack that the motivation to do anything other than shopping, browsing, and surviving another day. However, today, I’m doing more than just survive – my laptop is open, and my words are blowing free as the ocean’s salty breeze into the world. The prospects of a new beginning and its uncertain end is…
