Social Healing ~ "This Takes Work" ~ One Person at a Time
We caught Alison Ramer enroute to Jerusalem, just after an explosion rocked the city there. She shares her hopes, dreams, and visions that give her the stamina to go back to the war zone and continue the fight for peace, justice, forgiveness and healing. In this passionate heartfelt statement, Alison shares the vision and hope that her generation share and how social media is helping them unify in their common humanity.
"...most of us choose not to harm one another and I condemn with compassion all others ... who feel the need to kill their relatives in order to be heard. I pray that we will look past our fear, hatred and anger towards the "other" and look towards the day when the only disasters we'll have to deal with will be natural disasters." ~ Alison Ramer

Trust Your Cape
Where do you place your trust when you take a leap of faith? I was driving today and a song came on the radio about a boy who could fly because he didn’t know he couldn’t. It went something like this: Spread your armsr Hold your breathr And remember to trust your cape. What is it you are not doing in your career, life, relationships, as a parent, a friend, a writer, a teacher, an athlete that you’re not doing because you think you can’t? Perhaps you’ve not even analyzed it, or didn’t think carefully about something because you assumed it was beyond you.

Does Bouncing Back Get Easier?
How are you at bouncing back? Is it easier than it used to be? Harder? Seems like everyone and everything is bouncing back from something; unemployment, poor business, faith in America, the economy, the market, the banks, or real estate. Many marriages and relationships have fallen apart, people have gotten depressed or sick. It seems like a lot and I for one have set an intention to be optimistic in 2011. So I ask you this question: Is there really more now to bounce back from or is that just where our focus has been recently?

Does the Demand Exceed Your Capacity?
What if you were built like a computer where you could run at full speed, operating multiple programs and all at once? If you’re like me, you attempt to do just this and then get frustrated, if you (or the computer) don’t change as quickly from one program as you deem necessary…what’s wrong with this picture? Could be a simple lesson in patience, but I suspect the real reason is today’s demands exceed your capacity. Let’s take another example: Compare your mind and body to a tank of gasoline.

***Why We Must Forgive Our Parents
Few people going through a messy divorce in mid-life would blame their own parents for their predicament. Neither would a business owner betrayed by a trusted partner normally think in those terms. A person who loses his job every five years would also not say that his grandfather was to blame. ...Few people going through a messy divorce in mid-life would blame their own parents for their predicament.
