Happy October

By |2023-02-06T23:43:38+00:00October 3, 2015|Posts|Comments Off on Happy October

Season changes always make me feel retrospective, how about you? Especially abrupt changes. Yesterday, I travelled from 90-degrees and sunny Tampa, Florida, to 50-degrees and raining Boston. In the blink of a three hour flight, I'd arrived in heavy fall. I'm settling in for a long, cool weekend in Boston. It's Family Weekend for my son's college and we'll be busy. We'll be bundled up and reconnecting in that awkward and wonderful way that you do when it's the first visit with your college freshman. It has only been 29 days since we dropped him off - and yes, I'm counting - but it seemed like forever, and yesterday at the same time. But now I'm with him, or about to be when he arrives at my hotel, and it's a happy start to my October. Hope your weekend is great, too.

Real You: What makes you happy?

By |2023-02-06T23:46:48+00:00March 20, 2015|Posts|Comments Off on Real You: What makes you happy?

What makes you happy? An interesting question, right? And, if you're like me, on any given day, at any given time, your answer about happiness what brings it to you could be very different. It could be the beauty of the sunset, the smile of a child, the vibrant colors of a flower, the embrace from a loved one. All of those things can bring us happiness, but it all starts from within. We know this, yet, often we seek happiness externally, afraid to trust that we are enough. That we are in fact in charge of our own happiness, protecting and loving ourselves enough to make that happiness come to life. And when we take charge of that thought, really believe it, it makes all the outward expressions of joy that much more special. I know, it's not easy, but we're all on this [...]
