Western culture is predominantly Christian…or agnostic/atheist/spiritual/it’s not important to me…whatever…and so you can stand on a street corner in any city and see a Christian church in pretty much any direction you like. When I lived in the middle of the city there was a church that met in the same strip mall building as…
DetailsI come across this often in my work. People want to know what their purpose here is, what task they’ve been set to accomplish, what’s the goal. At the same time, I’m looking in their book and surrounded by their teacher and guides who are patiently waiting for the client to tell them what they…
DetailsI like it that so many people are becoming introspective enough to search for the lesson in experiences they have/had/are having. They want to know what they are supposed to learn from any particular happening, which I find refreshing.

DetailsSomething we learn about as we mature is that, even with the best of intentions, some actions have unintended consequences. Some things affect people in dramatic ways even though that’s what we were trying to avoid or that’s the last thing we would do, etc, etc, etc. We learn to try and think about all…
DetailsOne of the biggest blocks to setting boundaries with people is that we don’t want to get into a discussion about “Why?” Many times the whole point of the boundary is to limit certain interactions, but setting the boundary provokes the interaction we don’t want to have. What’s worse is the “Why?” questions around things…
DetailsLots of people feel that they are chained to their responsibilities. They can’t do this because of work. They can’t do that because of their family.
