Why Live?

We experience emotions in dreams, and in life. Which one is the dream ?  Why is one better or worse than the other?  Enjoy life. Enjoy your dreams. It is how we learn, grow, and experience. Who are we to judge.  Our current job is to LIVE. 

Heart Stopping

Fear and Love are heart stoppers. When you can, choose Love.  When fear grabs you, love the fear. Nurture it and hold it. Fear shows us where we still lack faith. Fear shows us when we abandon the self.  Hate your fears, and they become dis-ease in the body. Use fear to as a signpost for healing. Soothe the fears and you pave the way for Love.

Tears water your smile

Forced happiness is like artificial flowers. It is the ups and downs of life that nourish the soil of our soul and the tears soften and feed the roots of our joy. Don't be afraid to feel.... all of your life.

Be Positive sometimes means Shut Up

Where do we go to feel sad ? Sometimes our closest friends and family give us  "be positive" platitudes when we really need room to "feel." If you can't handle someone's sadness or fear, please tell the person instead of giving them an unasked for pep talks. That can encourage suicide as the message can be, "don't come to me with your feelings."  Don't be afraid to get close to the darkness in others. That is when they need you the most.
