Reflections of the heart, mind and soul.
How unresolved my life is right now! There are so many problems hanging in the air that I feel like I’ve fallen into a deep well in the woods. I am confronted with the results of my poor judgment in the past and my limitations in the present. The only thing I have resolved to…
I learned a long time ago not to make a big long list of expectations for the new year, in other words, not to set myself up for big disappointments. That doesn’t mean I’m not motivated or that I don’t intend to accomplish things. I intend to accomplish whatever needs to be, and I’m motivated…

“To enjoy good health, to bring true happiness to one’s family, to bring peace at all, one must first discipline and control one’s own mind. If a man can control his mind he can find the way to enlightenment, and all wisdom and virtue will naturally come to him.”
This was not a hard one, except that there were too many photos to choose from. So I chose a lot of photos that express together to me. Instead of having you endlessly scroll or click on thumbnails I decided to put them in a slideshow (You have to click here or on the post…
