Managing our Lives

We have to be the MANAGER of our lives. Whatever decisions we make has to be made with a clear mind and after deliberation with ourselves as to how it would impact our lives. Acting on the dictates of others undermines our free will. © Norma Bobb-Semple 2021

Presence

Being present at all times in our lives isn’t a matter of choice but a matter of necessity. ©Norma Bobb-Semple 2021

Editing our Lives

Attachment

Attachment to results can be elusive. Whatever we do, let us do it without expectations. Life is more rewarding when we focus on being more kind, loving, generous and caring, not only to ourselves but to our fellow humans and all of nature including sentient beings. © Norma Bobb-Semple 2021

Complacent

Life is not about survival, it is about striving and to truly strive we have to let go of complacency. © Norma Bobb-Semple 2021

Ritual
