But, I believe there’s another lesson to be learned by all of us. And, it’s not just that Spirit works in mysterious ways (which is true). It’s that sometimes we don’t listen to our intuition, our inner knowing.ARTArticleHow To Super Charge Your AffirmationsEveryone has heard of the benefits of using affirmations as a tool to change their lives.

The concept of the vision board (also known as a goal board, goal map, or treasure map) has been around for generations, but it’s gained a renewed interest and popularity after success expert John Assaraf related his story of using vision boards to achieve his dreams in the best-selling DVD documentary The Secret.[1]

And you have a birthright and choice to change yours too when it is expedient to do so. It’s not about what you believe as right or wrong as much as it is expanding your sense of self-actualization (as Maslow would have said), compassion, love, purpose, and meaning—for yourself and those you interact with.
Does it expand your light and your vision for your life, or does it keep you in the darkness of fear?ARTArticleI Wish I Didn't KnowI wish I didn’t know what a broken heart felt like. I wish there was no illness. I wish I never knew what homeless meant. I wish there was no such thing as war. I wish I never heard or said an angry word.
