Expectancy has been mentioned in 61 of Shirley’s daily meditation readings. And I began wondering when and where we’ve defined the word.

I was committed to suffering. It hurt too much to do anything else. But journaling changed my life.

I was lost in my search. Anywhere I looked I was turned away, disappointed, disrespected and rejected. I wore out my excuses.

Gaslighting is a form of psychological abuse where someone is made to question their own sanity or perception. It can explain some behaviors

On this marked day of renewal for life, for love, for all sentient beings on this Earth, I offer this prayer.

Do I stay informed and take action or do I focus on my inner life? Is there a way to do both?

As you practice silence, be patient with your mind. It is the web that we peer through to see our divine nature.

Boundaried walls of expectations help me feel safe and yet are limiting. I like to know what to expect. Today I choose to be alive.
