Christmas reminds us to give, but giving only on Christmas isn’t really giving. Obligation isn’t really giving, nor is giving with expectation. Giving doesn’t require that we open our wallets; it requires opening our hearts.

Sometimes, I don’t think we find our chosen family, but fate delivers them to us, and they are often more loving and accepting than genetic family.

If you have not seen “Bob Trevino Likes It” on Hulu, I strongly recommend it.

We have to learn how to heal, and we have to have guidance, but no can heal us but ourselves. We have to do the work. You can lead a horse to water, but you cannot make it drink.

If we are not willing to work at it, we are stuck in the anguish of our past. Then, the only person we can blame is ourselves.

Everyone should see this film. As writer/director, Tracie Laymon beautifully crafted it. Barbie Ferreira was mesmerizing throughout the story. Kudos to John Leguizamo Rachel Bay Jones, and French Stewart. See this film, please do.

“It is impossible to serve two masters. (The Bible)” We cannot serve God while serving the ego, and it is extremely important to discern the difference between the two. Ego is never satisfied and keeps us chasing after some external source that it promises will make us happy.

We have to be true to ourselves, accept and love ourselves as we are and understand that God gave our lives to us to live as we choose, and God gave no one, either the right or authority, to choose for us or demand that we fit their mold.

If you are here, you are meant to be here. Stop believing the lies of judgement and condemnation and start living up to the potential you were sent here to create.
Never let anyone diminish your light, or your promise to make the world a better place.

When we blame others, even if they have hurt us terribly, we negate our own power and responsibility. One of the biggest blame games is blaming a bad childhood. What those who engage in it don’t understand is that there can be an addiction to misery.

You have a right to quit,
to stop living for someone else, and you have a right to be yourself. So, go ahead, be who you are. God gave your life 100% to you and nobody has the right to dictate to you how you are to live it.

God doesn’t answer prayers, especially for one side over another. God guides those who choose to be guided, and anyone who does not choose has the free gift of choice. Truth holds open the door to awareness, but will never force anyone in.

Those who cannot accomplish insight, can’t accomplish a stable and loving life for themselves. They may partake of many pleasures or experience great wealth, but underneath it is always a wounded spirit crying out and seeking love in all the wrong places.

I can’t do anything to make up for what my white ancestors did to indigenous people, but I can find compassion for their suffering. I can respect indigenous culture, and refuse to turn a blind eye.

Empathy is not a weakness. Empathy is the glue that holds society together. Without it, we crumble into chaos and violence. Perhaps, we all need to remember that God is all of us.

Those who hate are afraid, and use their hatred to compensate for feelings of vulnerability. Hate seems powerful, but it is an illusion of power. Their fear is that without hate, they would become like their perceptions of those they hate.
