EPISODE LXVII: FOR GRANTED

Sometimes in life we forget how important the small stuff truly is.  We neglect to be grateful for these little things that help us move along in our journey on a physical level.  We talk about that and how the role of loved ones plays as well.

EPISODE LXVI: THE CHALLENGE OF ACCEPTANCE

 Sometimes we have to understand that we made some more choices in life.  For myself, I can say I hurt people.  I was angry.  I was mean.  I didn't think I would ever make changes and now I have learned I have a choice.  When it comes to the past, i have to accept and love that part of me, and forgive it.  It's so hard so let's talk about it.

EPISODE LXV: TALING ABOUT OUR GENERATION

 

I look at the difference between "those old geezers" and "those young punks."  You know, statements like, "back in my day" and "your way sucks so this is what we do" and stuff like that.  After further review I come to find that maybe they aren't that much different at all.

A CONFESSION AND PROCLAIMATION

 

We go through times in our life where everything can be very chaotic. Sometimes we find ourselves getting addicted to that chaos and then you’re forced to sit quietly and think about the impact you’ve had on people.  For me I had to think about everything and think about the true impact I had of people as I was growing up in this world, I think people get close to me always end up getting hurt because I was holding too much baggage. I had such bad self-esteem, and I was carrying so much anger. so much hurt growing up when I was rejected constantly.  (read more)

 

EPISODE LXIV: BE YOURSELF OR BE CRAZY

I take about how unauthenticity can lead to so many problems.  It can make you question yourself, if you're doing everything right, am I here to do what I am supposed to do, why is this happening to me?  Owning yourself and being who you are is just one of the things you can do to become stronger, wiser, and happier.
