A client and I were discussing the other day how resentment had literally made her sick. We don’t usually talk much about resentment. I expect that’s because we’re supposed to be above this particular emotion. As a matter of fact, it’s even a hard one to define. Animosity, antagonism, ill will, […]

The words, “I don’t like you” rang through my head for decades. It wasn’t the classroom bully who said it. It wasn’t my best friend who uttered those words. It was my Dad. I was just 12 years old. I still remember the shock of realizing that the man who […]

When I have a few minutes to relax at the end of the day, I turn on the food channel. Cupcake Wars, Iron Chef America and the Next Food Star are perfect for winding down at the end of a long day.

матрациI recently connected with an old friend. Although we hadn’t spoken for about a year, we picked up the conversation like it was just last week, although lots had changed for both of us. A downsizing at her workplace precipitated major decisions as to her career choices and financial future.

The other day I saw a slogan that said, “I’m not opinionated. I’m just always right.” I haven’t stopped smiling about it. Especially as I am writing a particularly controversial book, it is impossible to not be opinionated. As a matter of fact, I absolutely need to be.
In looking at whether it is being opinionated, […]

There was no chain or railing as we sat on top of a 14 storey temple in Tikal. You could easily go over the edge. It was a long ways down. You didn´t see a chain across the exit on the boat going to Santiago so you could with one false step go straight into […]

It´s easy to be in a good mood when things are going well.  It´s natural to be polite when people are polite to you.  And it´s a piece of cake to live from spiritual principles when you´re “in the zone”.
I also know that there are times when I am what I call “consciously unconscious” and […]
