Attitudes and Latitudes

Attitudes are a settled way of thinking or feeling about someone or something, typically one that is reflected in a person’s behavior. Latitude is about the scope for freedom of action as well as thought. Put the two of them together and we have a potential for a winning formula in this life. How? Our

The Struggles Within

There is no such thing as a life that doesn’t know angst, sadness, and despair. These experiences are part of the human condition and every bit of this portion of our journey is an opportunity to learn something new and behave in a manner that takes us to an uplifted place. The reality about our

When people speak of deception, it is most often in the context of what is taking place with someone outside ourselves. We look at the deceptive practices of lying and manipulating done by others.
