"I've never been loved, the way I need to be loved." I hear this from so many people and I have to wonder... if we're all looking for this love, why are we failing to find it?

Receive
I am a giver. I bet you are too. We've heard it our whole lives. 'Tis Better to Give than to Receive But is it?

Grief
It's a scary word, isn't it? A feeling that we deny at all costs. No one wants to think about it and we don't express it until we've had a loss so great that we can't deny the sinking, heartbroken, take your breath away, feeling of despair. Recently I've had some grieving that has surprised me. ... Read More about Grief
