Feeling Good Tip of the Day ~ Close the Door to the Past
Yesterday is Over – It’s All About Today & Tomorrow
To live a stress-free life, you have to stop living in your past. I know it seems like fun to compare everything in your present to your past, and to experience the present through past-colored glasses, but it actually isn’t.
When you wear past-colored glasses, you can’t truly experience the present for what it is. Your boyfriend or girlfriend gets compared to a list of expectations and failed relationships rather than recognized for the unique blessing they are in your life. Your boss gets compared to all the bosses who came before her. Your friends’ ability to parent gets compared to your parents’ ability to parent.
Everyone deserves to stand on their own past-free merit.
NOTE: We frequently accept rules about the past that determine how we live today. If the rules are no longer valid, drop them quicker than you would drop a burning hot charcoal.

Poem of the Day ~ Iris of Life
Iris of Life
Zitkála-Šá
Like tiny drops of crystal rain,
In every life the moments fall,
To wear away with silent beat,
The shell of selfishness o’er all.
And every act, not one too small,
That leaps from out the heart’s pure glow,
Like ray of gold sends forth a light,
While moments into seasons flow.
Athwart the dome, Eternity,
To Iris grown resplendent, fly
Bright gleams from every noble deed,
Till colors with each other vie.
’Tis glimpses of this grand rainbow,
Where moments with good deeds unite,
That gladden many weary hearts,
Inspiring them to seek more Light.

“The most important three words you can say to yourself: Yes I can!” Denis Waitley
We’ve all seen it. When someone puts their heart into doing something, he/she does it. They don’t quit. They eat up obstacles the way folks in south Texas eat barbecue. When you face a challenge. Say the three words, ‘Yes I Can’ over and over until you meet the challenge.
