Cultivating Patience
I think one of the many lessons we’re learning right now is how far afield we’ve drifted with regard to what really matters. We’ve gotten very wrapped up in work, virtual lives, and more to the extreme detriment of our own well-being and the well-being of our planet.
Awesome Human Alert
Focus on what you DO want; not what you don’t want. With those words resounding in my head, I set off to come up with a way to use social media for good.

Transforming “What Ifs” from Anxiety-Provoking to Possibility-Making
I’ve watched people torture themselves with “what-ifs”. They pose dire questions to themselves about upsetting things, then get mired in the anxiety those questions have provoked.
