Setting personal boundaries are like identifying the gates in our invisible fence lines which protects the precious heart and soul inside our bodies. Many people look at boundaries as walls, but rather when we establish healthy boundaries it provides a way to distinguish what we choose to let in and let out. They form flexible gates, not stationary walls It is important to learn about setting healthy boundaries so we can make decisions about what is and what isn’t permissible in all relationships.

Boundaries are valuable

All relationships work more harmoniously when the participants know what to expect and what is expected of them. Read More→

Sitting in my car listening to the radio all seems well with my world. Then without warning deep sadness fills my body. I tell myself to breath through it. I tell myself I don’t have to know why it’s there or what is causing it. I just need to breath. As I do I see a couple I know in there yard. I stop my impulse to honk. I’m thinking I still don’t think I know how to have a relationship. Read More→

“Let go. Why do you cling to pain? There is nothing you can do about the wrongs of yesterday. Why hold onto the very thing that keeps you from hope and love?” -Leo Buscaglia

One of the biggest obstacles people deal with in life is letting go of the past. For many it becomes a full time job. They are so consumed with what was, what if, why, if only, etc. that not only do they NOT let go of the past, but they live in it.

It’s important to look at your life in retrospect for many different reasons. You can look back and either cherish the memories that were a part of your life which have made you who you are today. Or, you can learn from your mistakes and the mistakes of others. Read More→

My friend Mary, shook with emotion as she tried to explain how after 25 years of marriage, her husband decided that he couldn’t continue in the relationship any longer. He had to be free!

It seemed she would explode with shock and incredible unbelief. She was in severe, inconsolable pain. This was pure grief! It was as if she had run until she could not run anymore and now was facing a gigantic brick wall in front of her. She was helpless to take another step. Her pain was a visual reality. She was experiencing, incredible grief. Read More→

Are You Entitled Or Worthy?

When I was a kid, I remember a friend of my brother’s getting diagnosed with Osgood-Schlatter disease. His bones were growing too fast for his body and it caused excruciating pain in his knees. Recently, the growth I’ve experienced feels too big for my heart, like Osgood-Schlatter of the soul.

When my girlfriend called me selfish for always driving 20 miles to pick her up so we could spend time together, my default was to defend myself. I was being kind, caring, considerate. Didn’t I lend her my car on Saturdays to do her errands? Selfish? What in the world was she talking about? Read More→
