"Expectations are at war, if good feeling and discomfort clash. When we are expecting zest and joy, our good karma may be ousted by distress and frustration, if negative downbeat waves are emitted. Just with a feel of realism, without prejudice, should we step into the future. What will be, will be. Only the fortune of war will tell, since life may be war or peace. ['Fish for silence.']"

"There are two ways of thinking. One is living life based on fear. The other is trusting. Letting go and allowing trust to control our lives takes mental gymnastics."
Trust
"The more judgmental a person is the sadder they are."
Emotion
"As a parent who raised his children in dysfunction, I know the parental wounds my children received were not intentional; often they were my best expression of love, sometimes coming out sideways, not as I intended."
Parenting
"Often self-love is replaced with self- loathing, compounded by beating ourselves up. We become experts at putting ourselves down, judging ourselves, and finding fault. This creates deep shame that says 'I am a mistake instead of saying 'I made a mistake."
Self-Love
"Chaos limits the free-flow of love and becomes a roadblock to what family members want most and sadly, it becomes the normal for the family."
Family
"Putting labels on others creates a black hole of disregard where judgment thrives and schisms deepen."
Judgment
"Honoring your word is the fiber from which trust is built."
Integrity
"This imbalance causes resentments within the over-responsible and dependency with the irresponsible person and this dynamic becomes the destructive life-pattern not conducive to happy families."
Family
"The truth is, we tend to train people how we want to be treated. If others know you have wishy-washy boundaries then they are free to walk all over you; the results you become a doormat. We have actually trained others to do this when we will allow people to wipe their muddy feet on us. After all, we are doormats."
Boundaries
"Acceptance is the most beautiful word in the English language."
