What are You Waiting For? Ready to Stop Waiting?
What are you waiting for? The right time, place or dollar amount? Are you waiting for the right job, for the kids to grow up or maybe for a sign from the Heavens?
Today’s inspirational thoughts remind you to take a closer look at how much of your life is spent waiting. Waiting to do something, waiting to try something, waiting to go somewhere, waiting to start, waiting to stop, waiting to love, waiting to forgive, waiting to say I’m sorry, waiting to trust, waiting to say goodbye, waiting to say what’s on your mind, waiting to believe in yourself.

Love and Relationship Quotes
Love and relationship quotes are a wonderful way to remind ourselves of what it means to say those three little words: “I love you.” Some people spend a lifetime yearning for the happy, healthy relationship that dreams are made of. Many others find true love but allow it to slip through their fingers. And then there are those who treasure the gift of a soul mate with whom they face life’s ups and downs, including relationship problems, while keeping their love alive. We need so much more of the latter.
My wish is that something in these love and relationship quotes will stand out; capturing someone’s heart and leading to a miracle of clarity, forgiveness, understanding or deepening of the love bond between two people.
If you’re not in a love relationship at this time, my wish for you is the strengthening of your love for yourself. When you truly love who you are, you radiate the purest love possible, thereby allowing the attraction of that special someone with whom you can share the loving gifts of your Soul.
I send love to you right now. Please pay it forward.

Your Relationship With Money
Relationships. We read books about relationships, we talk about relationships, we take classes on relationships. Relationships with our partners, our kids, our bosses.
What about your relationship with money?
“But I don’t have a relationship with money!”
That, in a nutshell, is the problem. Having a relationship with money isn’t the same as having a relationship with a person: money isn’t going to say something rude about your mother, forget to clean its room, or forget your birthday. But we have feelings about money, and how we view our money defines our relationship to it.
So, how would you rate your relationship with money? Is it an old friend that you can rely on? Or, if you’re like most people, is it more love/hate – or just hate? Do you waste money and then feel badly? Do you use money to make you feel better and then ignore it until the next time? Are you always wishing you had more? [Keep reading Relationship With Money...]
Inspirational Thoughts on Giving and Receiving
Are you a giver who keeps on giving, often neglecting yourself and rarely receiving anything in return? For your compassion and generosity I say thank you. For every person who has taken your generosity for granted, I say thank you. For every time you went unnoticed and unappreciated, thank you. For caring enough to give of yourself, for wanting to make the world a better place, for acting out of love and oneness with other beings—I say thank you. But there’s something else I want to say.
Everything in life is best when in balance. As you’re giving so much of yourself, remember that giving is at its best when the giver’s “cup” is full. Of course, in order to give and remain full, you must also receive. And in order to receive, you must sometimes ask.
Today’s inspirational thoughts encourage you to honor your need to receive, to embrace the cycle and allow the balance. [Keep reading about giving and receiving...]

When I picked up the cold, frail, lifeless kitten; she wasn’t moving. Her tongue was hanging out, she was unusually tiny, she had missing patches of hair, her eyes hadn’t yet opened and she was barely breathing.
I’d never seen anything so sad and helpless in my life. She was clearly in death’s grip, yet clinging to life nonetheless.
Not knowing how long her shallow breathing would continue, I decided to just hold her until she passed away. I wanted to make sure that, if nothing else, she would not spend the last few moments of her life alone. She could make her transition peacefully while comforted by me, a strange being of a totally different species.
Part of me hoped that the Universe would grant her the gift of a second chance, but I knew it wasn’t likely. I accepted that, but not without a barrage of mixed feelings. I didn’t want her to suffer even for a moment, yet I didn’t want her to die. I was happy to give her warmth and love, yet saddened by the overwhelming odds against her.
I put this precious little darling inside my sweater, her face barely peeking through the V-neck cut. I laid her on my heart, connecting her to my life source as I spoke softly both to her ears and her Soul. [Keep reading Saving a Life...]

Reflecting on life lessons learned an sometimes be a less than cheerful trip down memory lane, but this one is 
actually quite funny. The joke is on me, but fortunately for you I’m not afraid to laugh at myself. So here we go.
If you live in a cold climate, you know very well the pain of shoveling snow from your driveway so that you can drive out of the garage. Well, I didn’t quite understand this concept when I moved to Minneapolis, MN from Memphis, TN.
In Memphis, the entire city would shut down if there was one inch of snow; and that was just about the most I’d seen at once. Please take this into consideration before calling me braindead as I share my crazy experience with you.
Life Lessons Learned, Minnesota Winter Style
It was my first Minnesota winter and there was more snow on the ground than I’d ever seen in my life. Everyone was scraping and shoveling and acting like little snow worker bees. [Keep reading Shovel life lessons...]
Do you feel the boundless freedom and the power of the present moment? The freedom to live with both the motivating excitement of a new beginning and the enthusiastic anticipation of completion. Not the power to become—but to simply be. Not the power to remember—but to create anew. That is the power of now.
Yesterday and tomorrow—beyond the extent to which they motivate and inspire you today—are irrelevant. This day, this hour, this moment is all that truly matters. Yesterday is no longer, and tomorrow does not exist. The now is all there is, all you need, all that’s real. Embrace it, enjoy it and make magic in it.
The more you choose to honor the amazing power of now, the more you allow the peace of mind, happiness and well-being that are your destiny. They are always here, waiting for you to turn your attention away from the meaningless illusions that threaten to separate you from your joy. Can you feel it? [Keep reading The Power of Now...]
