Battle and Stories

Everyone you come into contact with is facing some kind of battle (big or small) and has a story.

You never know what it is, how it impacts you, how it impacts the other person, how you could relate, how you could understand or even help one another, until you step out of yourself for a moment.

Kindness goes a long way.
Love triumphs.

What is something that happened to you recently where kindness and love changed yours or someone else's day?

Take Captive Your Thoughts

Many times we dismiss “innocent, small” thoughts thinking they don’t hurt us...


Or thoughts we believe are justified because someone has hurt us.

Friends, these small, innocent and justified thoughts are often the ones that wreak most havoc.


They’re often the ones that lead to more pain, more bitterness, resentment, anger, sadness, etc.


Our pear tree years ago showed us this. One small poison in one area not addressed and pruned immediately, SPREAD to the whole entire tree. We then needed to get rid of the entire tree because of all the damage.


With the pear tree that remains, we work toward removing the poison as fast as we can, before it wreaks havoc on the rest of the tree.


Where in your life, do you have to notice the damage the thoughts are causing?


Regarding a relationship? Your image? Your worth? Your health? Your past?


Take captive your thoughts and notice how even the smallest ones can make the greatest [negative] impact.
