There are so many types of non-traditional medicine for non-physical disease and injury. 

Medicine of the soul, that comes through faith in truth. 

Medicine of the heart, that comes through connection with others. 

Medicine of the mind, that comes through proper thinking. 

Medicine of the spirit, thats come from actively working toward the service of others. 

Life is suffering. Yet, living with purpose and living well mean that we are constantly finding ways to overcome suffering. 

the door is solid and holds fast

until we open to the requesting knock 

sometimes it is pain, or grief, or sorrow that pleas for rest 

sometimes it is joy, or peace, or contentment that begs to enter

whatever knocks, whoever knocks, embrace, support, and enjoy

then send them on their way, to their appropriate final destination 

for the learning of deep experience

the live well lived

only comes when we open our doors 

Friendships are chosen. 

Love is chosen. 

Enemies are chosen. 

Hate is chosen. 

We choose when, how, and who.

Our long-term feelings are 100% in our control. 

Our wounds allow us to heal stronger while giving us the perspective and tools to help others heal as well. 

Everyone is their own version of incomplete. 

Incomplete in that perfection has not yet been attained. We all miss the mark. Yet, the journey is what counts, and as we connect ourselves with the right people, at the right time the journey delivers its meaning. The purpose and meaning we are destined to find and then fulfill. 

Faith is the act of letting go in order to believe what you cannot possibly control. 

Humility isn’t something you have, it isn’t something you keep.

Humility must be earned every single day. 

We sharpen ourselves with our daily endeavors, tasks, and relationships, then we use our sharpness to end up cutting ourselves open for the sake of true vulnerability.  

Wisdom is the ability to quickly discover how ignorant we really are.
