Paradoxical Thoughts: Being Open to Amazement
http://paradoxicalthought.blogspot.com/2014/12/being-open-to-miracles.html
Monday, December 22, 2014. Being Open to Amazement. Ever felt like the whole deck is stacked against you? Where time almost feels like there are waves repeatedly buffeting against you, pushing you deeper and deeper, when all you want to do is swim back to the surface? We've all felt like this to some degree, at some point in our lives, and the most important thing to remember is that it won't always feel this way. It hurts now, but not forever. Negative emotions are like a feedback loop. If we feel t...

Paradoxical Thoughts: Prayer of Intercession
http://paradoxicalthought.blogspot.com/2014/12/prayer-of-intercession.html
Tuesday, December 23, 2014. For an end to the violence that too much lives in our own hearts. For poor people all across the world. For those without adequate love, food, clothing or shelter. For the mentally ill, the emotionally ill, the chronically ill, the terminally ill. For the lost, the lonely, the doubting and the confused. For those who have every good reason to think that no one on the earth or above the earth cares about them. In thanksgiving that God saw fit to get us all up this morning.

http://paradoxicalthought.blogspot.com/2014/12/art-of-compliment-affirmation.html
Friday, December 26, 2014. Art of the Compliment (Affirmation! A good compliment can go a long way. Can you imagine that uplifting feeling after someone complimented you? It feels as if self-doubt just vanishes in the wake of nigh walking on clouds. A good compliment can change a person's mindset for days. That's the effect that you should be going for! In the wise words of N.H. Kleinbaum (although her book Dead Poet's Society. First of all, why do we see so many "lazy" compliments working? Bull; Web Page.

Paradoxical Thoughts: Living Without Regrets
http://paradoxicalthought.blogspot.com/2015/02/living-without-regrets.html
Friday, February 27, 2015. Ever stopped to think about how many times you've almost died this year? No, really, it's morbid, but think about it. How many close calls have you had? How many times have you slipped on the ice and luckily fallen forward to skin up your knees rather than falling backwards and hitting your head? How many times have you avoided being in a car accident on what should have been a normal drive to get groceries? Isn't that usually one of the first regrets that comes to mind? Food f...

Paradoxical Thoughts: January 2015
http://paradoxicalthought.blogspot.com/2015_01_01_archive.html
Wednesday, January 14, 2015. An Open Letter from a Father. An open letter from a dad who found a paper lantern in his driveway. I can't claim to be the author, but it really resonates with me because, if I had a daughter (or a son, for that matter), this is the message that I'd want to spend all of my years as a father expressing. Which I did not do. Not at first. So it sat there in the rain for a while. Then I noticed it had writing on it. I thought about this a lot during the day. I thought about y...

Paradoxical Thoughts: Resfeber (Going Beyond Ourselves)
http://paradoxicalthought.blogspot.com/2015/01/being-open-and-going-beyond-ourselves.html
Tuesday, January 13, 2015. Resfeber (Going Beyond Ourselves). You know that mix of anxiety and excitement you get right before you're about to embark on something out of the ordinary? That intense feeling as your heart rate picks up and you're not entirely sure what awaits you on the road ahead? Resfeber (pronounced: RACE-fay-ber); Swedish; noun. Is the way to go, because then there's no stability in life, it's all about looking for balance. A wise man once told me a story while explaining this idea:.
