Awareful Play

Some have a gift of playing with words that can be both fun and entertaining but when it comes to someone's feelings, playing with them...not so fun. And that's where awareness is needed the most. Understanding and forgiving another's ignorance is definitely a hard one.

Truth

Truth is a hard pill to swallow...to the ego that is.

The Self

What we're running from and running to are One and the Same.

Keeping it Simple

The mind likes to look for complicated solutions when it's really quite simple...

If you're having a bad hair day, put on a hat - Simple!

Two very different things

Values and beliefs - two very different things. Some people equate the two - it's important to teach kids values but allow them to form their own beliefs, and those are always changeable.

Only an opinion

Jus - Is my opinion right Mom?

Me - Well I guess if it's your opinion, right now, it's right for you.

Jus - Yeah but isn't it right for everyone else?

Me - No, it's just your opinion and everyone else has their's. And even in time you might change your opinion and this one won't be right.

Jus - Yeah I guess that makes sense.

Only we adults make it complicated. We can all be right and wrong at the same time.

So near and yet so far

Most people don't realize that the closer we are to what we want, the greater the fear. And most give up just at that crucial point in time.

Travesty

Maybe the greatest travesties of all are the lies we tell ourselves and the hearts that are afraid to trust.
