I sit in judgment of no one...NO ONE.

A great deal of what I say to others are things I am also saying for myself.  I need to hear myself say things to help me remember why I am here.

Being present is the key to all interaction.  Sometimes it is easy and sometimes not.  The person in front of you is the most important person in the world.

I love fostering connections in schools between students.  It only takes one person to share something personal which can change the entire direction of a relationship.  This is my definition of courage.

Scientifically proven benefits of gratitude: Better relationships Better physical health Better psychological health More empathy Stronger self-esteem Improved sleep Stronger mental strength  

I need to get out of my own head and out of myself in order to help others.  The unseen benefit is that when I do this I am helping and healing myself also.
