the best dad ever!
My earthly dad was an awesome guy. I didn't always think that, because sometimes he was really tough. He could get this look on his face that would bring me to tears. He didn't yell with a loud voice that often, but instead he would yell through clenched teeth. I...
what is your vibration?
Everybody and everything has a vibration, an energy. Have you ever been at a concert or in a church and the music caused emotions to well up in you? The music facilitated the change of the vibration within you. Most of us have heard about the miracle of prayer that...
