When I choose to live with integrity, my life flows.

Faith is not restricted to the confines of a church, the auspices of a specific denomination, nor the perception of what is ‘holy’. Life itself is sacred; therefore, something that invites faith in.

Transformation must start from within. It is an “inside-out” process that encourages a deeper understanding of what is within in order to make a lasting shift to what is seen or experienced on the outside. It’s important to awaken to what is within in order to embark on the humbling journey.

Although vulnerability encompasses openness and innocence to trust, it seems as though the willingness to get hurt is the more challenging aspect…at least it is for me. I crave the openness and the innocence but definitely do NOT long for getting hurt.

When we love, we always strive to become better than we are. When we strive to become better than we are, everything around us becomes better, too. —Paulo Coelho

I love the concept of growth being a new way of seeing. It makes a lot of sense to me. Growth can sometimes be construed as work, finding all that’s wrong and changing it, for the end goal of spiritual enlightenment. What exactly is spiritual enlightenment anyway? That phrase has a way of chaffing me when I read it or hear people talk about it.

What you really want to do is nurture the attitude that you are open to learning more about yourself. Accepting more about yourself. This is what will inspire you to do something new.
