On getting “caught up”

I mean the kind of “caught-up” where the events of everyday life become the driving factor in how we experience our days.  This is all too easy to do: bills become due, unanticipated expenses pop-up, relationships take uncomfortable turns, weather events, even politics and events far removed from what we know of as our day to

Allow the gift

In my book Think Believe Receive I relate that one of the most difficult things we are asked to do is to accept gifts.  These gifts may be gift wrapped, or verbal.  They may even be things we have wanted for some time, and yet we turn them away. Even after writing about this in my
