		<description><![CDATA[The simple question you asked me &#8230;&#8221;how do I let him [or her] go&#8230;&#8221; is one that is full of contradictions.  Holding on to the memories, letting go of the pain; holding on to your self esteem, letting go of the sense of loss.  Letting go of someone you have great attraction, passion, love, like or even history with is difficult under clear circumstances, harder when there is unfinished business between the two of you.  Let&#8217;s see if we can shine some light in that dark place that has hold of your heart. First know that you&#8217;re not alone on this day or any other.  You have a bright and shining life to lead once this storm cloud passes.  How do I know? Once upon a time, in a different life, as a different girl, I once loved someone with every cell of my person.  Like star crossed lovers, we were not meant to last. He left me&#8230;not just once, but left, came back, left, came back&#8230;.you get the picture. I will be honest with you&#8230;I would have changed my whole life for him, given up things that I adore, just to be with him every moment of every day.  [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[By Alison Rodgers It&#8217;s the state of the American family in hundreds of thousands of households from California to New York.  Life has a tendency in this down economy to press in on family life.  The added pressure of devalued currency, a rise in commodity prices reflecting at the gas pump and again in the grocery bring people to the point of &#8220;all the right things, for all the right reasons&#8221;.  He writes: Every day, I go to work and do a good job.  It&#8217;s stable, not challenging, but stable. I appreciate that I have a good paying job.  I know that there is no advancement potential, but changing jobs right now is not a good idea when your family depends on you.  Every day of my life, I stand in that gap, being the father, husband, worker. I do all the right things for all the right reasons.  Still, I am tired.  Exhausted.  I love my family, my wife&#8230;but I have nothing left after the stress of the day, of barely making it every single month, of worrying about the next major illness or catastrophe that will finally just be the last straw. There is no end in sight, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Balance, sanity, stasis. Have you reached a place in your life where your first thoughts are excitement over the coming day? Have you found yourself without dread, negative thoughts, fear, and anxiety? According to the overwhelming majority of medical professionals chiming in through medical and popular publications, more human beings are suffering from anxiety and depression than ever before&#8230;.and with the economy, the struggle for self and family, who can say it&#8217;s not expected? But imagine it for a moment. It&#8217;s the morning when you wake up and you are at peace. You feel balanced and ready to face the day. You are assured, confident of your ability and in your faith in a healthy way. Life as you know it isn&#8217;t perfect; but it is good. Like fresh southern fried chicken with mashed potatoes and field fresh corn on a summer&#8217;s day, it sticks to the ribs and carries you throughout the day. You are satisfied. Is this your game state? Here is a snap shot of what chaos can do &#8211; see if this sounds like anyone that you know. Jane is a friend. She&#8217;s tall, dark eyes, and very attractive. She&#8217;s been successful in the corporate world; [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[by Alison Rodgers I&#8217;m listening to David Lanz&#8217;s Christofori&#8217;s Dream and watching the most beautiful day unfold.  It&#8217;s not that today is unusual, nor has anything stellar happened that will make headlines across the world.  I am deeply, truly happy.  It brings to mind the Serenity Prayer I&#8217;ve lived with for so many months now it&#8217;s become real to me. Serenity.  God grant me the wisdom&#8230; The courage to change the things that I can change.  That begins inside each of us, the choices that we make, the life that we choose to lead.  It&#8217;s in teaming up with the spirit inside of you and acknowledging that unique human element that breathes life into life.  The things that I can change. My attitude.  My love for creation, man included. My hopes and dreams, allowing all of the Divine inspiration out and into the world. The way I greet others, how much I care, and how truly. Grant me the radical love you have for me, for other people. God grant me the wisdom and the courage to see the things that I can change in myself, and to encourage others to want to live a more full, authentic life.  Grant [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Am I love? As I love you, I love you, all in and without reservation. There is nothing left for me but to be wholly in and invested in you. I long to be together to feel grace and truth collide into the colors that make up the sea of emotions between us. I long to see your smile, to love you, always you, only you. Are you love? There is so much in your life; do you notice me? Do you notice that I need your time, the attention of the personal you, the one you hide from everyone?  I long  for you to notice that God made me for just a time as this?  In a tough world, will you still realize that no matter how tough I seem, without your smile, life somehow lacks a special moment? How do you express love? I express it by being happy no matter what&#8230;by being whole on my own, so that I can give you all that I have and still be myself.  That I live authentically&#8230;my expression of love is healthy expression of self first, faith always. I awoke pretty ill this morning after a long, painful night.  Today, the [...]]]></description>
