It can be very difficult to be kind to someone who has been unkind to you; to someone who has betrayed you, hurt you.  And yet, there is a gift in being able to remember that the person who caused that hurt set up a dynamic that allowed you to reach inside, find the hurt, turn it around and find a productive lesson.  There is a gift in being able to remember that love is not just in one place in our life, but in many places and the opportunity is in continuing to bestow our love, our care on those who will not take it for granted, but will value it, understand it, and return it.

How will you love differently?
How will you treat the people in your life differently?

Starting today…

Define Your Life Path

August 3, 2009

The definition of who I am is a constantly evolving process. It’s as if I’m on a path. Mind you, it’s nothing as clearly defined as Dorothy’s yellow brick road. No, it’s more like a caramel dusty lane. It beckons my attention and demands my contemplation.
