Shorten Life’s Learning Curve with the University of Life
“The University of Life” is a way of saying that earth is a giant classroom with lessons to learn. This is not an actual, physical school, though we do offer courses from time to time. Our goal is to shorten life’s learning curve – because life gets a lot easier and better once you learn who you are and how life works, but that doesn’t happen automatically, and it takes time! Until you learn better, you’re more prone to costly mistakes. You experience failure, suffer defeats and disappointments, and possibly endure years of unnecessary frustration and anxiety. Hopefully, you learn better along the way, but not always. “Experience is what…

Love Quotes: Love Changes Everything
“Someday, after mastering the winds, the waves, the tides and gravity, we shall harness for God the energies of love, and then, for a second time in the history of the world, man will have discovered fire.” – Pierre Teilhard de Chardin Q: Why does Teilhard de Chardin compare harnessing love to discovering fire? A: Because fire changed everything, and so will love, if we ever learn to understand it, teach it, and thus drastically increase its presence in our relationships and institutions. Q: Which institutions will it change? A: All of them. Consider these insightful quotes about education: “Students who are loved at home come to school to learn,…

Love Quotes: Love Attracts Love
“Life is kinder to those who love themselves, because love attracts love and light, and repels and dispels darkness.” – Shaun Roundy Have you ever watched someone walking down the street, smiling and happy, a bounce in their step, and thought, “I bet they’re in love”? Have you ever observed the way a person’s countenance changes as they fall in love? Suddenly they become happier, their eyes shinier, and the weight on their shoulders seems to float away and vanish in the clear blue sky. That’s what love does to us. Not only does it pour more dopamine and other positive chemicals into our blood streams and brains, it shifts…

Addicted to Love
It seems like everybody’s addicted to their smart phones these days, and we feel as if we’d suffocate if we can’t sneak a quick glance to check our messages and new likes. Some of us are addicted to food, shopping, gambling, video games, drugs, porn, and other substances/activities that momentarily soothe our nerves. This happens because of neurotransmitter rewards. In other words, each time we get a new like or take another hit of our favorite “drug,” our brain rewards us with a quick shot of dopamine. That hit – the message, food, new shoes, etc. – isn’t what we’re actually addicted to, it’s the dopamine. All those activities are…

You Are Needed
I once heard a story wherein a fairy had become entangled in a hedge. A kind girl set her free and the fairy granted her a wish. “I want to always be happy,” the girl declared, at which the fairy flitted up to her shoulder and whispered something in her ear. The girl looked surprised, and the fairy flew away, never to be seen again. Well, the girl lived a long, satisfying life, and her wish came abundantly true. The tale of the fairy’s wish circulated among her family and friends, but no one knew what the fairy had whispered in her ear. As she lay dying with her adoring…
