Thoughts have power; thoughts are energy. And you can make your world or break it by your own thinking.

Women work overtime, do double triple duty, juggle ten balls at once -- children, careers, husbands, schoolwork, housework, church work, and more work -- and when one of the balls drops, we think something is wrong with us.

The balance and peace we seek for ourselves and our society won't be achieved through mental effort alone. Mind and spirit are meant to travel together, with spirit leading the way. Until we make a conscious commitment to understand and embrace our spiritual nature, we will endure the ache of living without the awareness and guidance of the most essential part of ourselves.

Use missteps as stepping stones to deeper understanding and greater achievement.

We don't have an eternity to realize our dreams, only the time we are here.

As we rise to meet the challenges that are a natural part of living, we awaken to our many undiscovered gifts, to our inner power and our purpose.

Take the reins of your life in your hands every day. Get up and put a smile on your face, and feel grateful for this gift in your life.
