Life is for living! And it doesn't really matter what's going on in your life right now - whether joy or despair or boredom - this is still true. Obviously a life filled with 'good stuff' seems to be a life that is easier to enjoy, I agree. But any life - yours or mine - really can be enjoyed, ...

Many times I see people who are stressed out, unhappy, overwhelmed, angry and afraid. And these are the “spiritual” people. I have to ask myself “What isn’t working?” Then I see people who are happy, self-aware, and enjoying their life. I have to ask myself, “What is working?” The interesting thing is, from outward appearances, there is no rhyme or reason really as to who is happy and who isn’t. Lack of money is blamed for many ills; however, I have met a number of people who have no money and are full of life and love without stress. So money obviously is not the key.

Life is amazing, isn't it? Whatever stage you're at - teenager or retiree, in work or out of work, single or married, parent or grand-parent - life is sure to throw you the odd curve-ball or two, to test you out a little. And when life turns sour (or sweet!) then it's always great to be able to ...

In my experience and observation the most tragic and insidious of all addictions is the addiction to suffering. The clinical definition of addiction is “compulsive repetition of a known behavior with adverse consequences.” In other words addiction is repeatedly engaging in actions that knowingly cause adverse results. There are two persistent issues connected with addictions, (1) what is causing the addiction and (2) how do we stop it?

My name is James Gray Robinson, and I am a spiritual/energy/faith healer. Earlier in my life, I was a trial atto ey in North Carolina, from a family filed with lawyers and medical doctors. My twin brother is the medical director of the Guilford County (NC) Health Department. My background and training would normally dismiss energy or spiritual healing as stuff of wishful thinking or downright quackery. I have discovered that alte ative medical techniques are effective and complementary to medical science. This article examines how and why alte ative medicine works.

I have learned that there are many sources of misery and suffering in this world. It seems that every belief system has its pet theory. Buddhists believe that desire causes all suffering. Other religions claim separation from God (sin) causes suffering. Others believe that rejection of what is happening at any given moment causes suffering. Yet still others claim that fear causes suffering. I offer the case of sentimentality as a major cause of suffering.

I read recently that a very famous spiritual writer was calling on all “light workers” to pray for healing for the world and for an end to the world’s problems and strife so that love and happiness could rule supreme. This misunderstanding is at the core of the issues challenging our reality at the moment. Not coincidentally, the world stock markets are plunging (again) and financial uncertainty is again at our doorstep. Financial doom and gloom are causing suffering all over the planet.

A student asked me a very good question the other day, and I had to think awhile before I responded. It is a question that many people never ask themselves and as a result miss an opportunity to apply some very important teachings. The question was “how do I know whether I am happy or just in denial?” When we talk about denial, we are talking about a defense mechanism that our minds use to ignore pain. We suppress unpleasant subjects and bury traumatic memories in order to function. Many times this suppression can lead to anger that is in turn suppressed, and a vicious cycle forms.

Personal development is a broad term. As such, it needs to be defined more clearly than simply being explained by end results. Personal development (or self development) is the process of improving ones self. The most common definitions of personal development imply: improving self awareness or self knowledge, finding your identity, discovering your passion, improving your potential, enhancing the quality of your life, realizing your dreams, or fulfilling your aspirations. Wh

Charging into adulthood was all I had dreamed about for 18 years. Daydreams of independence and a successful career were the thoughts in my youth. I pursued education and employment opportunities with such fervor that I was sure I would learn it all to have it all. Knowledge of people, places and things was most important to succeed in life. I set off to one of the best colleges to learn the right things and meet the right people. Two years of unfulfilling experiences found me transferring home to attend school.

I used to think that the most powerful energy in the world is love. There were many reasons for this, as love changes everything. Love is the creative aspect to creation, it is the energy that flows through us all, it is life. The love of the creative energy of the universe created us, sustains us, renews us. After experiencing true happiness, I now believe that there is a stronger force, the force of happiness.

Many of us are affected by a terrible affliction, a disease that causes suffering and misery in billions of people. The most amazing symptom of this disease is that most people don’t even know that they have it. Other symptoms include headaches, stress, restlessness, heartburn, ulcers and other digestive issues, loss of sleep, shortness of breath, memory loss, low self-esteem, substance abuse, and absent-mindedness. It is a condition loosely described as “obsessive thinking.” This is not to be confused with obsessive compulsive disorder, although I believe the two are linked.

I suffer, primarily because I am constantly comparing myself to others. I make irrational and unjustified conclusions and assumptions about how I am doing by observing other people. I may be doing my best, but I will not feel satisfied or fulfilled if I observe other people further down the path or having more “success.” Conversely, I may not be doing my best but I will feel relieved or smug if I observe that I am ahead of others or more successful than others engaged in similar activities. I suffer because I was trained to think this way by an educational system that thought that way.

Are your goals SMART goals? I mean to say are your goals Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant and Time-based? If not, then you may not get very far in what you set out to do today, this week or this month. SMART goals are the 'what?', 'why?' and 'when?' of goal setting. That is, what do you want to achieve? Why do you want to achieve it? And when do you want to achieve it by? And if you don't put your goals in such a framework you really are likely to forget your goals (eventually) and replace them, instead, with a new set of goals.

Many spiritual teachers and new age gurus talk about raising our vibratory rates. What they are really talking about is changing the way that we relate to the world, each other and our minds. Most spiritual beliefs include the proposition that we have a soul, or spirit, that is separate from our minds and thoughts. It is commonly referred to as the “higher self”, or an awareness of the perceived and the perceiver. When we can observe our minds thinking, our personalities working, our bodies doing, we can stop being held captive to these aspects of ourselves and begin to become aware.

I receive a lot of emails from various self-improvement or spiritual development gurus and websites that contain messages of various ways to improve my life, my health, my relationships, my bank accounts or my enlightenment. There certainly is a lot of stuff out there competing for my attention and my dollars. I came to the realization that there must be a lot of people out there that don’t like what they are experiencing in order to manifest all of these people who are suggesting how to improve it.

I was contemplating my navel the other day and realized how much we have going for us in this universe. The truth is that no matter what your circumstances, this is a kind universe and everyone in it has the primary motivation to work in favor of a peaceful, bountiful life. The only obstacles in our way are created by the projection of fear into our present and future circumstances. Granted we are far away from universal peace and cooperation, but happiness is readily available anytime we want it. Love is pouring into all of us in amounts hard to perceive much less feel.

I was reading Forbes Magazine the other day because it had a headline about how the recession had affected the richest people in the world. (“Billionaire Bust” March 30, 2009). The article summarized the net worth losses of the 20 richest people of the world. They were: Bill Gates: 18 Billion dollarsr Warren Buffet: 25 Billion dollarsr Carlos Helu: 25 Billion dollarsr Larry Ellison 2.5 Billion dollarsr Ingvar Kamprad: 9 Billion dollarsr Karl Albrecht: 5.5 Billion dollarsr Mukesh Ambani: 23.5 Billion dollarsr Lakshmi Mittal: 25.7 Billion dollarsr Theo Albrecht: 4.2 Billion dollarsr

I don’t know whether you are intrigued, shaking your head in dis-belief, or laughing at the notion of something so seemingly absurd as managing paradox - that mental phenomena where two things cannot logically co-exist, but indeed, do. In our daily lives paradox shows up in the form of ...

I am troubled by all of the empowerment literature that discusses how we disempower ourselves by thinking disempowering thoughts. This line of thinking recommends that we think empowering thoughts, make empowering choices and live empowered lives. I could not put my finger on why this huge cultural phenomenon did not ring true to me. Then I remembered that Albert Einstein once said, “You can’t solve a problem with the same thinking that created it.” The problem is not how I am thinking; the problem is that I am thinking.

“I can’t give you a sure-fire formula for success, but I can give you a formula for failure: try to please everybody all the time.” Herbert Bayard Swope “Success is the ability to go from one failure to another with no loss of enthusiasm.” Winston Churchill The path of success goes through your heart, not your wallet.

I have been teaching people all over the world for almost five years about all sorts of magic. The magic of healing, the magic of prayer, the magic of focused thought. One of the most popular teachings, which I have given over the years, is one of the most simple, yet effective, magic words. That word is WOW! There are several reasons why I believe it is one of the original magic words on the planet.

I saw a sign that read, “Wake up every morning with the thought that something wonderful will happen that day”. As a spiritual teacher and healer, I thought that was one of the most profound things I have ever read for several reasons. First, it acknowledges that most of what we experience in our lives is manifested from our thoughts, although many times it comes from our subconscious thoughts. Second, I am convinced that how we start our day dictates what kind of day we will have. “Start our day” means what is going through our minds when we first wake up.

I have been receiving numerous emails from people who are panicking about the future. They are worried that they won’t get what they want or they will lose what they have, whether it is a job, a mate, respect or serenity. The state of the world economy is a breeding ground for anxiety and turmoil. Great, isn’t it!

Everyone love quotes, especially life quotes are often repeated in speeches and conversations that are meant to inspire others. Although it is just words, it hold the ability to affect people deeper than regular words can. It makes people to think, relate with the truth they know and from there, creates an acceptance from their point of view. Over decades ago, if we want to find life quotes, we have to find quotation dictionaries that are hard to find. These days, we have the

I constantly amaze myself how I can steal unhappiness from the jaws of bliss. It takes quite a bit of effort at times to make myself unhappy. However, because I am so clever, I can do it even when there is absolutely no reason to be unhappy. I realize that it is a learned trait, developed over 50+ years of training, and hard to change. I am encouraged that I realize this, because what I am aware of can change. However, it takes quite a bit of courage and honesty to admit this to myself, especially when I convince myself I am right.

Several years ago Michael Gerber published a book called the E-Myth. The fundamental premise of this book was that an entrepreneur is someone who works on their business, not just in it. The person who only works in their business, who effectively IS the business, is called a technician. An entrepreneur’s focus is on developing standardized processes and structures, a business blueprint as it were, to enable the business to be equally effectively whether he runs it himself,

Many times in our life we have to say goodbye. We say goodbye to loved ones who graduate to higher dimensions through the illusion of death. We say goodbye to people we become attached to that leave us on the physical plane. We say goodbye to children who grow up and become adults. We say goodbye to most people on a daily basis as we move from one physical location to another.

I had a astrological reading from Stephanie Azaria the other day. After studying my star chart for a while, she told me that according to the positions of the planets and stars, I was born to struggle because the struggle increased the speed of my growth. It was my destiny to feel like I was doing something wrong because it made me be more conscious of what I thought, said and did. In other words, it was my karma to always feel like I was making a mistake, and that I was a mistake. This was the grace that fueled my growth as a spiritual being.

We are taught that beauty is only skin-deep, that we can be happy and successful even if we do not meet societies ideals of beauty. But unfortunately, recent research shows that people who are considered more attractive do indeed have an advantage over those who's looks are not considered as appealing. Attractive people seem to have better job opportunities, higher incomes, and a greater likelihood of success in their dating life. rnIt's easy to see why this is the case. Whil

In the United States, we are coming up on a national holiday known as Independence Day. It is an annual remembrance of a day when the thirteen British colonies in North America agreed to an act of treason against the crown of England. With some really good karma these men defeated the armies of England and we became who we are. The irony is that even though we have freedoms unequaled in any other country in the world, many people are still slaves and prisoners to their own minds.

I saw a sign that read, “Wake up every morning with the thought that something wonderful will happen that day”. As a spiritual teacher and healer, I thought that was one of the most profound things I have ever read for several reasons. First, it acknowledges that most of what we experience in our lives is manifested from our thoughts, although many times it comes from our subconscious thoughts. Second, I am convinced that how we start our day dictates what kind of day we will have. “Start our day” means what is going through our minds when we first wake up.

Affiliate marketing is an extensive means of endorsing a website, in which an affiliate is compensated for each sale production using his or her own hard works. In Affiliate marketing, there are various methods to earn money. Even if one of the methods can direct you to a victorious and moneymaking business, the studies and effort included can be so overpowering that when the time that you realized it, you are already tired nearly before you even get started. In that case, t

Many people ask, “how am I supposed to let go”, or “what does it mean to let go?” Most people have attachments to others, to money, to beliefs systems (“BS”) or to self-image. People are most attached to how other people think about them. All of this leads to suffering. In order to let go, we have to detach ourselves to preconception, prejudice and judgment. It is not a physical action, to “let go” of someone doesn’t mean to physically leave or to throw them out of the house. What “letting go” means is detachment and opening your heart.

Long ago I read a book that featured one of Dr. Sigmund Freud’s most famous theories. Freud said that man has two basic needs: love and work. As a young woman, I had already figured out the universal need for love, but the idea thatrn‘work’ was equally as important was a big ‘aha’. And so it was for me that my work became a meaningful part of my life. Today, it’s even better that my work involves helping others to find meaningful work, too. If you already have meaningful love relationships in your life…and enjoy work that feels like the perfect fit for you…you are a lucky one!

One of the most often asked question of spiritual teachers by students is “what is my purpose”? Students who study spiritual concepts want to have some idea of why the universe operates in the manner it is experienced. They want to understand so that they can stop suffering. An understanding of the “big picture” is helpful to reduce anxiety and give us something to feel more comfortable. The Wheel of Karma created by the Tibetan Buddhists gives us that bigger picture along with clues of what we can expect. The Wheel is a symbolic representation of the nature of life.

THE WAY OF TEA The Japanese Tea Ceremony As A Template For Efective Human Interaction

A friend shared with me a wonderful thought pattern that I have incorporated into my thinking vocabulary, "There is no right, wrong, good or bad." I like this sentence because it forces me to interpret the situation, to the best of my ability, from a non judgmental space. I try to view life from a higher consciousness, notice I said try.

Mercury has just gone into retrograde. For those who know anything about astrology, this is a time for Murphy’s Law to run riot. Electronics, relationships, and everything in between have been known to fall apart. I, and many of the people I know, shrug and blame it on the stars. I have come to realize that this is the way of the victim and only fosters victim consciousness.

A couple of weeks ago my husband and I slipped away to Portland, Oregon. This beautiful city is one of our favorite miniature vacation spots and it is practically right in our backyard. As ever, we had an amazing time. We walked for hours, perused the many wonderful shops, dined on incredible food and spirits, and spent many simple, yet fabulous, moments together. Yummy! One particular experience we had while in Portland prompted me to write this piece. I was gifted with a re

Why do we have emotions in the first place? Many of us experience them as a disturbance, something out of our control. But they’re not simply a thorn in our side. They are natural energy responses to what we experience through our senses. They’re vital messages from our Soul, our higher self, to our personality or body. Please note that many Western spiritual books use the terms Soul and Spirit as one and the same. However, in Taoism and some other esoteric writings, our

Google Redirect Virus – Useful Info The spyware and security threats have not shown any signs of slowing down. Often times you can resolve this issue quickly on your own without paying money. As we are increasingly using our computers to interact with the world issue like these pose a significant challenge. Your computer can be attacked by all manner of viruses when you browse the internet without control. Google Redirect Virus is one of such dangerous viruses that can atta

How do we solve a problem like fear of commitment, or commitmentphobia? Well, we begin with understanding what the problem is all about, I guess. And, to give the answer away right at the beginning of this article, it's about fear of the unknown. Yes, some might argue that it's also about fear of rejection, too - and that is true to an extent - but fear of commitment is much more about not knowing what's around the corner.

This time of year is the holiday season and the annual ending of the Gregorian calendar. It is a time when the romantic notion of the reuniting of families and generosity of giving comes to the surface. It is also a depressing and stressful time for many people, in part because the shortening of daylight and also in part because it is the time of the metaphorical jou ey of the dark night of the soul, preparing for the return of the light. Medical professionals and counselors agree that this time of year has the highest incidence of stress and anxiety for western cultures.

Whether you classify yourself as a “go getter” or not we all desire to accomplish or achieve certain goals and experiences. When we do not reach our objective within the time frame we want, our mental, and emotional state of being becomes frustrated and often irritable. Here are some affirmations to assist in staying on point: ~ I learn to accept the here and now. ~ From a perspective of love and compassion for myself, I choose to observe this life experience with expansive awareness and see it from a higher perspective.

The Quickest Way to Lose Fat: Positive Thinking The Quickest way to lose fat does not involve starving yourself. However, many of the so-called miracle diets unfortunately amount to this. Let’s look into some of the risks of such a diet:. - Lack of proper nutrition has a negative impact on your health. - Your body stores more fat whenever you eat because it goes into starvation mode. - You start losing muscle mass and your body’s metabolic rate drops.

Whenever I am feeling a little out of sorts or a little frustrated in life, I turn to any book written by Alan Watts and I find that it inevitably cheers me up. He had an eloquent means of bringing to the fore the simplest explanations for the most complicated questions in life. Today I happened to pick up Become What You Are and was reminded of the illusion of self-mastery in the process of self-discovery. By that I mean the idea that we can transcend ourselves by something

It is my experience that the ancient teachings (God) come to me in times of my greatest growth and help me to understand that everything is in my highest good. I had the sublime and transformational experience recently of not getting what (or who) I really, really, really wanted. Specifically, I met someone that I have a great deal in common with, and share many common beliefs, profoundly enjoy every minute with this person and was convinced that I had finally found my soul mate. The kicker was that this person is in a relationship that they are not willing to leave.

Many people wish to be enlightened or find happiness in life. There are thousands of self-help books, thousands of self-help workshops and even more philosophies and teachings promising to make people happy or enlightened. It is possible to become enlightened and happy by studying all of these resources. It is far easier to become happy and enlightened with a teacher.

There are so many books out now proclaiming that we can use the Law of Attraction to create abundance, love, wealth, happiness, etc. etc. The trouble with these belief systems is that it is all mental illusion. It fosters the belief that if you follow their secret recipe, you will get what you want. These “attraction gurus” want you believe that if you are not getting what you want, you must be doing something wrong. If you would just do it right, then you would be happy.

We need wisdom for success that addresses the pattern of the wave! The wave describes the inevitable up-and-down pattern of life. Self-help success teachings usually seem to imply that there is a way to skip the lows, the falls, the losses and just rise right to the top. But that just leads to disappointment. We need wisdom for success that guides us through the disappointments, and also through the triumphs. Losing is unavoidable and winning is never enough. True wisdom fo

Getting around the right people is not only a life changer, but can be a life saver. Find those that work smarter rather than harder. Where? There are many places, but just talking to people you don’t know is a good start. Maybe the random guy in a fast food line. That’s where I found a gentleman that works on investment software. It all started with a simple “What did you order?”. If you are in the people business, which most of us are, not only will you be doing your job, y

Entertainment is the best way to refresh yourself and be efficient and effective at what you do. There are various means of entertainment, but movies have always been the top priority of those who look for real entertainment. Internet, which is the best gift of science, is often used to get the real entertainment (movies). But as we all are aware that to download movie through internet is a very complicated work to do. Whenever a general movie lover tries to avail movie downl

There is no need for forgiveness and yet every need for forgiveness. What in the world do I mean by that paradoxical statement? In what sense is there no need for forgiveness?

One of the strangest fears is the so-called fear of success. Fear of failure is understandable - it 'hurts' to fail, to have your limitations revealed - but to actually fear that you'll get what you've been working for all your life... Well, it just sounds daft, doesn't it? Well no, actually. Fear of success is very real and very serious, and quite often the worst thing about this fear is that it goes unnoticed. And that's because the person 'suffering' from it seems to be happy and seems to be successful, but they could have so much more!

I donate a lot of time giving advice to people on “ask the experts” sort of websites. There are two questions that always seem to be repeated. The first is “what is my purpose in life” and the other is “how do I increase my self esteem?” The ironic twist to these questions is that they both have the same answer, regardless of age or circumstance of the person asking. The amazing thing is that after giving this same answer hundreds of times, I have never had anyone write me back and say “you were wrong!”

Can there be any greater fear than fear of public speaking? And the crazy thing about this fear is that very few of us ever get to do any speaking in public. Just the thought of our deepest fear is enough, it seems, to mean that we will do almost anything to avoid facing our public speaking fear! But why is this, exactly? What is there to fear about talking in front of people? It's not as if public speaking puts your life in danger or anything, after all! Well, this is another of those learned fears, believe it or not.

Striving for inner peace in the midst of the drama, chaos, or any experience that is less than desirable is difficult for the most mindful person. In many situations, we can fend off the pressure of being drawn into the experience; however, some situations or experiences reach our vulnerability and it is hard not to be sucked into the attachment and cause a reaction versus a response.

You know that two of the ways to improve your profit margin is to save money on buying your products and attract more customers; knowing where to find coupons in the US to save you money can let you meet both objectives. Even if you get a discount from a wholesaler or your shipper, you can still save even more money by taking advantage of the discounts and promotional codes that companies offer. You just have to know where to find those coupons that will save you money. Knowi

The call begins when we work in the illusion of the material world. There is a nagging voice in the back of our mind that whispers constantly that we are destined for something more compassionate and meaningful in our lives. The work we are doing becomes boring, inconsequential, and unimportant. We could be lawyers, construction workers, clerks, 9 to 5’ers. We want to find meaning in life and start reading books on spirituality or enlightenment.

Why Not?…Begin Again! By Christine M. Prevete, MhD There is a brief moment when you awaken each morning and there is a clean slate. You breathe yourself back to the world from sleep. It’s a quick and fleeting moment before you open your eyes, but it’s there. There is no story yet. You get up, look in the mirror and remember the story of you. This is the defining moment of your day. Will this moment be met with drudgery for the continuation of the stories or will it be fabulous? It is easy to slip into the stories we have lived for so long.

I had a beautiful weekend walking by the river with a friend in the glorious sunshine. Whilst we were strolling, my friend started to talk about the animal kingdom and she asked me which animals I liked and what my preferences were. I said to her, "what do you think the difference is between ...

A friend was buying cigarettes and a stranger said, “The surgeon general said smoking can be hazardous to your health.” My friend responded, “Did they also tell you that #$!@ing with me can be hazardous to your health?” The stranger opted to move to another line. rn rnWhen my friend told me about this encounter I laughed and then asked “why the heated response since you don’t smoke?” and she said, “because it wasn’t any of their business!” Now I don’t kn

Setting goals is important, for all of us. If we didn't set goals - formerly via using SMART goals, or informally via something as simple as a to-do list - then we simply wouldn't get anything done in our day. Or our week. Or our year. I guess setting goals at work is controlled via your boss (or your customers), but in setting personal goals *you* have to be the boss (or you have to be your customer, so to speak). So what's the best way to set personal goals, then? Well, I think that personal goal setting requires that you set big goals and break them down into smaller ones.

If we continue to live on this planet, we have to get older. There are various physiological changes that we experience as we go through the process of aging. Ignoring the legends of immortal beings that walk the planet, we all grow older physically. Genetics, supplements, a positive attitude, plenty of water, exercise and healthy diets can help us look young as long as possible, but the best we can expect is a cause of death that reads: “died of advanced age.” I remember the slogans, “live fast, die young.” Now that I am almost 60, I look forward to life after 100 years of age.

Traditional astrologers "make predictions." Often they are correct. But right or wrong, "predictions" turn you into a marionette, with the planets holding your strings. And in my opinion, that is not a very inspiring description of the way the cosmos works, nor a very accurate one. You are vastly more powerful than that. You can, to a great extent, shape your own life. That at least is my belief. The future isn't crystallized. It's a wavering, quivering web of possibil

I soon developed the trigonometry needed to answer these questions -- quite a prodigious undertaking for me and thus began a real "magical mystery tour" through my life history. Although I have lived in several different places, the one major move in my lifetime has been from Lancaster, Pennsylvania (my birthplace) to Ann Arbor, Michigan. Of course what I wanted to know was, What direction was Ann Arbor from Lancaster? That is, what degree did Ann Arbor occupy on my radix or

During the 20 years in which I worked with various people helping them to overcome numerous health problems, one question I was frequently asked by my patients and clients was “once I have regained better health, what can I do to keep it?” Reaching a healthful state is only half the journey. Knowing how to live consciously will enable you to enjoy long-lasting health and balance. This article will give you some idea of what it means to practice conscious living.nnPrimaril

Do you find yourself waking up in the morning and immediately starting to worry or ruminate on areas of your life? If you answered yes, no judgement it’s human nature! Awareness is power! Change this process and you change your outlook on life and what you attract. You hold the power to change where your thoughts reside when you live in awareness of yourself. What are you choosing to think and focus about in your life? Ask yourself, “Is this truly what I desire?”

Some people call them angels; some call them your guides. I call them your committee. Who are they? They are individual personality energies, some you have met in this life and some you have not, that comprise your personal coaching team and cheerleader squad. You cannot be a physical human without them. And they are there to help you live the best life you can. What is Truth? A difficult question; but I have solved it for myself by saying that it is what the ‘voice withinâ

I’ve never tried to pull a caterpillar out of its cocoon, hoping to catch an early glimpse of the butterfly. I don’t recall ever ripping open the closed bud of a spring flower, desperate to experience its full bloom glory. I do, however, sometimes eat raw cookie dough before I bake the cookie. But if I always did that, I would never experience the sweet succulent warmth of crispy melting chocolate-flavored heaven swarming my taste-buds and rocking my entire being with org

It can be said that wisdom is a combination of knowledge, experience, and understanding of life as you know it. Within this wisdom you can access striations of compassion, patience, appreciation, and grace. You naturally feel compassion if a friend’s pet dies if you have experienced that sadness, too. You have tolerance for an elderly man who shuffles across the intersection; though he may keep you from making that all important left-hand turn, as perhaps you have had shuff
