Why Love?

From success you get lots of things, but not that great inside thing that love brings you.  – Sam Goldwyn

What’s Nagging Us?

The problem is you were meant for growth and you’re not growing.  – Vernon Howard

missing

We don’t feel we’re in control of our own destiny and happiness. Something is amiss, what is it? What are we lacking?

grow

The ego senses that same discontent. The way around it is to actively seek growth and not get used to living in our comfort zone. Meaningful growth then is the key to banishing this feeling!

Because the only reason you don’t love them, is because you’re using them as your excuse to not feel good.Abraham

How To Feel Better!

You are beautiful.  – Neale Donald Walsch

beautiful?

Whenever we’re feeling blue chances are that we’re not enjoying healthy self-esteem. We don’t think we count for much. To feel better we compare our lot with others. This strategy never works.
