Our InnerSelf welcomes your inner self...

We've all experienced srress, difficulties, challenges. They are simply part of life. And we learn to handle these experiences and challenges. It starts at birth and finishes at death, in this lifetime. It is part of our journey of life. How we traverse this journey is our choice to make. We can do so with our head held high facing each challenge as something we can handle, or we can do so with our shoulders bent as if the weight of the world was upon them.

Our attitude says it all. It is the foundation of what comes next. We cannot succeed with an attitude or intention of failure, we can not be happy with a focus on unhappiness. Our choice is always the key that guides us to the next experience, and the next. And that choice is ours to make, not anyone else's.

And while we are not responsible for the happiness of others, or they for ours, we are all in this experience of life together. We are all creating this huge play (drama or comedy) of life on earth and contributing our role to it... our peace, and our Love or the lack of those attributes which then creates a void for other energies to enter.

Let's fly our hopes and dreams up high in the sky of our vision for the sun to illuminate and empower, and let's keep our head high as we surge forward on our path towards our fondest wishes and dreams... one step at a time, one day at a time, one vision at a time.
