From Bare Stems to Blessings: Embracing Challenges
Have you ever had one of those days, or weeks, or months when the world seems like it's conspiring against you?

What do you do when life knocks you down?
Sometimes you need to swim against the current to get to the place you’re meant to go.
Sometimes the lies we tell ourselves are subtle, almost hidden. If we’re not careful, these lies will become navigators of our lives.
Whether you’re in a difficult place or completely at ease, appreciate and embrace it because it will change before you know it. Focus on the current season, and don’t worry about the days ahead. Each season prepares the way for the next. You’ll be ready when it comes.
The world may feel like a chaotic mess, but you get to choose how to respond. Look up and look around. Life goes on despite us. Go on with it. Engage. Reach out and embrace it.
A simple sticky note can be a powerful tool to boost your mood, improve your day, and produce a happier you.
As humans, we don’t shed our physical skin the same way snakes do, but there are often areas in our lives where we are bound like a snake in an old, stretched skin.
Look for the berries among the thorns. There is always something to praise. You may not feel the thorns of life as much if you focus on the berries.
