About the Author
For all those loving souls in my life who have helped me feel my way to abundance and joy, and for all those inspired teachers who have so generously shared their wisdom that has guided me to this place.
Preface
Do you want more out of life but feel that life has become too difficult? Do you want to feel content each day but find that each day brings you more frustration? Would you like to move from misery to mindfulness to mastery in your daily life, let your spirit rise and align with abundance?
There are so many ways to look at life, and too often we see the lack in our lives rather than the abundance. Albert Einstein said, The world we have created is a product of our thinking; it cannot be changed without changing our thinking.
This collection of essays is intended to help you to change the way you think about everyday issues and to gain a different perspective that focuses on abundance and joy. They illustrate how I’ve been feeling my way and finding purpose, and how you can, too. They show you how you can choose to be in a space of good spirits, grace and gratitude for your well-being. You see, I wasn’t always in this joyful space.
In April of 2009, I was downright miserable. My life was a mess. I dreaded putting my feet on the floor when I woke up each morning, and I fell into bed exhausted at night. I felt empty and aimless. My stress and discontent weren’t because of any one big catastrophe but rather due to the convergence of a combination of lesser negative life events. The result was that I felt trapped, discouraged, and overwhelmed.
What had led me to this point? For one thing, I’d become my elderly mother’s sole caregiver when we moved her from Florida to be close to us in 2002. I’d been traveling back and forth between Florida and Arizona since 1995 whenever she had health issues. After my mother moved here and time went on, my support system through my work and in the community began to slip away. Year by year, bit by bit, I spent more and more time with my mother in doctors’ offices, medical labs, hospital stays and nursing home visits, and my connections were disappearing. I’m sure many of you can relate; your life
