A Sense of Wonder…
“Keep your sense of wonder about the world, and that wonder will lead you towards your passion.” I was talking with one of my children the other day and the topic of “finding your passion” came up. “I don’t know what my passion is,” he said to me somewhat defeatedly. “That’s okay,” I responded. “You’re […]

It’s the Small Things…
It’s the Small Things… I absolutely love my morning cappuccino. For me, there is nothing better than hearing the steam from my cappuccino machine as I am rising in the early morning to start my day. It got me to thinking about the small things in life that I love so much; so often we […]

Live Like a King
My brother has been in my dreams quite a bit lately. I feel like he is speaking to me while I sleep. It feels as if he is trying to get my attention to be some sort of a surrogate for him for his grandsons (he has two: Cullen, 3, and Crosby, 9 months). He […]

Ho’oponopono
Ho’oponopono. The word itself meant nothing to me until recently when I discovered this Hawaiian practice of forgiveness. I had never heard an uttering of this word before and knew nothing of its origins—an act of reconciliation and forgiveness.
