Bruises heal  Imagine having a big bruise and several times a day you give it a hard poke. Even though our bodies know how to heal, this bruise won’t go away because we keep rebruising the bruise. We have all been bruised by life and the people in our lives. But, bruises heal – when […]

Gnawed into mediocrity  Imagine that you woke up and discovered a rat gnawing on your arm. Would you let the rat continue to gnaw? Would you tell yourself “it is no big deal” and go back to sleep? Or would you do something about it? When we listen to the little voices whispering guilt, shame, […]

Simple math of thinking  Most people are wishing for positive results but mainly thinking negative thoughts. This is a seriously defective strategy.
