I’m always encouraging people to be more honest. I really think that people need to stop lying so much. I’ve found one reason among many that causes a lot of people to lie. People are too easily offended. They take everything to heart, and read negativity into plain facts. Or…
I’m finally noticing a shift in the way people are thinking and behaving, and it’s a good thing. The knowledge that everyone is connected is slowly spreading and reaching more people. I truly believe that we are all connected. My actions not only affect me and the people I directly…
I often wonder why any of us cares so much what other people think. I know, we’re taught to try to impress others and fit in, but after a certain age, shouldn’t we know better? Shouldn’t we have learned to be ourselves and not give a rip about what other…
