Irregardless if this is true or not, a New Year always brings a sense of hope, expectation and a chance to begin again. It is the perfect time to pause and look back at the months behind and to look forward at the months to come. We are able to live our lives with greater intention if we know where we have have been and have some idea of where we are headed.

So powerful!! The gift of heart felt gratitude is the greatest gift. To know that who we are in our honesty and truth is deeply impacting another person is soul- satisfying. It fills us up.

How committed are you to your own personal growth? We are interested in growing our careers and our bank accounts but what about our own development? Do you put as much time in your emotional/spiritual development as you do on your physical fitness?

It does not feel good INSIDE the person being needy NOR does it feel good to the person it is being “cast” out to. Neediness is a repelling emotion. The more we NEED the more we push away that which we desire or feel we need. When we feel complete and whole and more at peace within ourselves, that which we need or desire just comes TOWARDS us. It seems like an oxymoron but it is how it works.

I can be in a beautiful new setting or here comfortable in my own home and what always fills me is my connection with life. I can be alone and be filled or I can be with another and be filled. I can be listening to music and be filled or I can be in the silence and be filled. The more deeply I am connected to myself the more I am filled where I am.
