You may have seen this little message years ago as an email from a friend. I stumbled upon it this morning and liked it so much, I wanted to share. Happy Monday! Lena “You don’t have to actually answer the questions. Just ponder on them. Slowly read straight through, and you’ll get the point.” ———————————————————————————————————- [...]
As I wrote in my most recent book, Living as a River: Relating to someone as a “self”—on the basis of how we see them right now—is like seeing a video reduced to a single frame, or seeing a ball hurtling through the air in a freeze-frame photograph. It’s life-denying. It’s a static way of [...]
I’ve always loved Valentine’s Day. Over the years it has meant different things to me, nonetheless I’ve still enjoyed it. As a kid it meant making valentines for all the kids in my class, receiving valentines, getting candy and other goodies from my parents and grandparents. It meant having a special note or treat in [...]

And yet we often don’t value these conversations like we should, we don’t pay enough attention to the important people around us. Just like we use [...]
I’ve written on how to be a great girlfriend, but being a great girlfriend is worthless if you don’t have the right guy. Here are some traits you need in a boyfriend: 1. He’s always supportive, but honest. There are enough people in the world that try to bring you down or scoff at your [...]
