Conflicts in Friendship by Dr. Brenda Davies. Friends encourage and support each other in difficult times and generally make a positive impact on each other's lives. However, they're also willing to confront and constructively . So let's take a look at how you can deal with conflict and with saying those things that your friend might not want to hear. Abandonment Mask Removed by John Randolph Price. A consciousness of abandonment may begin in early childhood with the death or divorce of a parent, the father taking a job in another town and seldom seeing the child, or perhaps feeling lost in a large family of brothers and sisters and not receiving enough attention. Other factors to consider are lack of affection from parents resulting in a high degree of childhood insecurity... Lost Something? Horary Astrology by Alphee Lavoie. There has always been a lot of controversy among astrologers as to what time (and even location) to take for erecting a horary chart but I feel that it is really quite simple.

The cover states that it is "A Practical Guide to Healing Your Life and Setting Yourself Free". Brandon Bays' story on its own is an "eye-opener". The old saying "When life hands you lemons, make lemonade" could be the theme song for her story. FROM THE HEART: The Sequel's Not Equal by Alan Cohen. The thing about sequels is that they rarely measure up to the original. Like movies, there are two ways to live a life: hiding out in history, or dancing on the cutting edge. History is safe, but reeks of regularity. The cutting edge seems scary, but it bestows life... HOROSCOPE (weekly): by Eliza Bassett.

TRANSFORMATIONS: A Sow's Ear and a Silk Purse by bobby jennings.

Time has come for you to make some choices.  You realize that these choices affect the future outcome to a degree.  Life's lessons can be done or learned the easier way or the harder way.  Life is a series of ever expanding choices like streams to the ocean.  Many choices can be made of which branch to take but they all end up eventually at the ocean. Is your trip rough or does it flow smoothly? You need to choose your lifestyle.  How you eat.  How you connect spiritually.  How you act around others...are you authentic.  How you treat others.  How you treat yourself.  You must realize that each small change ripples out and effects everything else. The time is here to be very conscious of every move you make for the ripples will be quick.  Others can not do these thing for you...only you can.  Know that nothing is wrong but there are easier and harder ways to experience life.  Take care of yourself. Take time for yourself.  Know that all can and should be well in your life if you will let it.           All is well, Child of God.               ~ Shari Rathman ~        This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it          INSPIRATIONAL MESSAGE         Baking A Cake A little boy is telling his Grandma how "everything" is going wrong. School, family problems, severe health problems, etc.. Meanwhile, Grandma is baking a cake. She asks her grandson if he would like a snack, which, of course, he does. "Here, have some cooking oil." "Yuck" says the boy.  "How about a couple raw eggs? " "Gross, Grandma!" "Would you like some flour then? Or maybe baking soda?" "Grandma, those are all yucky!"  To which Grandma replies: "Yes, all those things seem bad all by themselves. But when they are put together in the right way, they make a wonderfully delicious cake! God works the same way. Many times we wonder why he would let us go through such bad and difficult times. But God knows that when He puts these things all in His order, they always work for good! We just have to trust Him and, eventually, they will all make something wonderful!"  ~ Author Unknown ~    back to top of page    Your Participation at InnerSelf.com is appreciated * A Heartfelt Thank You to all our readers who are purchasing books and other items through InnerSelf.com.
