What if everyone you meet has a purpose? To teach us something along our journey? To help us overcome obstacles and be a better person?
I know, it can be hard to grasp when we think of the people that did us harm and hurt us. But I believe even those people were in our lives to help us learn valuable lessons.

Join me on this Thanksgiving day 2020 with some gratitude, no matter how hard that might be to find this year. We can find gratitude in the past, by acknowledging all the wonderful experiences we have had. We can also find it in this present moment, and in the future.

The moments that are bigger than us tend to lead us into many directions – hiding, frantically searching for answers, or we feel overwhelmed. I have found that such moments, of which we have many this year, are meant to lead us back to ourselves. They require reflection and contemplation as it is often in that quiet time with ourselves that we get to the insights we need to move forward.

Its election week and I am less concerned about who wins, and more about what our reaction as a country will be to the incoming president. The word civility has been on my mind lately and this week is a good time to remind ourselves that we cannot afford to forget about it. Being polite may not always be easy, but its the more effective and productive way to deal with issues we don’t agree with and to treat people that are different from us.

I have been silent for a few weeks with this podcast and this episode is an attempt to explain my reasons. And while there are many potential explanations – the bottom line is this – I haven’t gotten it done. And while I am tempted to blame 2020 with all its newness and not-normalness, I have also have to be honest with myself. I had ideas, but they haven’t turned into action. This episode may resonate with many of you as I am certain we all in stuck in some areas of our life. And to get unstuck, we just need to take one small step. This episode is my first step.

Getting up earlier has been one of my most significant changes that I have made. It has not only brought me more time in my day, but it sets a different tone for my days. Instead of …
We like things that are easy. We try to avoid as much pain as we can. We want to pull through and get it over with. However, some of our biggest accomplishments in life have come from doing hard things.
I learned to smile more when I came to this country. And while I initially had to force myself to smile, I now notice all the amazing positive side effects that smiling brings.
Does it seem challenging to find an inner connection with ourselves? Our world can be noisy, overwhelming and distracting.
Yet, the direction for our life comes from within us.

I found your podcast after I found your group on MeetUp. I started listening and I’ve been hooked ever since. Your messages and lessons in the podcast have been a lifesaver. I am going thru a divorce after being married for 16 years and I am having a difficult time with letting go and moving on but you have taught me so much and have given me so much to think about. Particularly the episode “A Clouded Mind”, it was just what I needed and I’ve been listening to it everyday and it has helped me TREMENDOUSLY. Thank you for all of your work, you are appreciated.
When I read your message last night on the way back home from the mountains, I couldn’t stop smiling. You made my day with your kind and thoughtful words. It made the often difficult task of writing, recording and editing so much more easier today. Thank you.
That said, I can relate very much to your situation. We become attached to others and 16 years is a very long time. I encourage you take your time and be patient with yourself. Letting go does not happen overnight. Its a process. It takes a long time to love and trust someone, and it takes even longer when we have to detach from this person.
You inspired me to create some more episodes on this topic. I think its something we all deal with at some point in our lives and it is hard.
In the meantime, take some time to dig into some of my older episodes that you may find helpful – specifically 102, 107, 109, 113, 114, 122 and 123. And lastly, check out 202 and 203, which relate to the episode you liked.
And remember – its through our failures and pains that we rise and become better human beings. That is my wish for you.
