Brandon and Jenna's Mom, a spiritual entrepreneur, philanthropist, animal and nature lover, and author with a financial consultant background.  My passion is turning my past experiences and wisdom into a springboard for helping people through my websites, presentations, and books.  I am the founder of Life Talks, Positive Thoughts on Life, and This Is Not Brandon websites. Why I do this:  I am dedicated to making this world a better place by helping people change and recreate their lives after tragedy.  I do this because I know that no one has to suffer and live in lack no matter what their past may have been, how long it may have been, or what your current circumstances are.  It is my own past and experience that drives me to this purpose.  There is no better teacher and no replacement for experience.

Your Heart Rules

Sometimes we don’t want to face the truth.  But it’s always there and the truth cannot escape what the heart knows.

 

Trust What Your Heart Knows

It is necessary to trust what the heart knows.  The heart is intuitive, relational and has computing ability that is very accurate.  Your heart is far more rational than the mind.  Trust in the wisdom of your feelings

To See Things Differently

When we are willing to see things differently, they have a way of showing up differently.  When we believe and our minds are open, there are no walls and all things become possible.

 

Around the Corner I Have a Frined

 

Around the corner I have a friend
 In this great city that has no end,
             Yet the days go by and weeks rush on,
             And before I know it, a year is gone
             And I never see my old friends face
             For life is a swift and terrible race,
             He knows I like him just as well,
             As in the days when I rang his bell.
             And he rang mine but we were younger then.
            And now we are busy, tired men.
             Tired of playing a foolish game
             Tired of trying to make a name
             Tomorrow I say! ‘I will call on Jim
             Just to show that I’m thinking of him.’
             But tomorrow comes and tomorrow goes,
             And distance between us grows and grows
             Around the corner, yet miles away,
             Here’s a telegram sir,’ ‘Jim died today..’
             And that’s what we get and deserve in the end
             Around the corner, a vanished friend.
             Remember to always say what you mean.
             If you  love someone, tell them.
             Because  when you decide that it is the right time it might be too late.
             Seize the day. Never have regrets.
             And most importantly, stay close to your friends and family, for they have
             helped make you the person that you are today.  You                                                           

If You Live Your Life the Right Way…

“If you live your life the right way, the karma will take care of itself…your dreams will come to you”  Randy Pausch

Thank You…

I wanted to say THANK YOU to everyone who reads my blog and my twitter posts, and who likes and comments on them.  I just now noticed that most of the comments (on both sites) have gone to spam and I’m sorry I didn’t notice them sooner.

I’m not a computer wiz and time is a big issue, however, you are all in my heart.  I don’t want to be just another blog with quotes,  although they are wonderful, but instead try to post ideas and thoughts beyond just quotes.  I sincerely hope that through my posts and my book that the world is a more positive place one person at a time.  If you like what I do please share my sites…

PS.  I love animals and use them frequently in my posts pictures.  I hope you love them as well
