Flow

May 28, 2016

Why do some of the best ideas come to us in the shower…or while walking in the woods…or listening to the roar of a waterfall? Those moments help get us out our heads and allow the flow of creativity to flourish. Maybe we’d be better off by reducing the reliance on gadgets and seeking more […]

Beauty

May 27, 2016

Feelings aroused by the touch of someone’s hand, the sound of music, the smell of a flower, a beautiful sunset, a work of art, love, laughter, hope and faith – all work on both the unconscious and the conscious aspects of the self, and they have physiological consequences as well. Bernie Siegel

For the longest time, he watched the kids cavorting on the trampoline in Ryan’s backyard. One day, Rex got his chance and the rest is history. He soon became the talk of the town and was featured on the ten o’clock news. To heck with chasing frisbees, Rex was born to fly.

Pass it on

May 27, 2016

There were two terrific singers who dazzled partygoers last night. One sounded like Ed Sheerhan and his friend was like a young Alicia Keys. She sang an Emily Sande song called ‘Read all about it.’ May the words guide you today. ‘You’ve got a light to fight the shadows, so don’t hide it away.’ Who […]

Timeless

Pastor Jim Dixon died unexpectedly a couple of months ago in California. He was an amazing guy who touched thousands with his weekly messages.

Patience

May 23, 2016
