Feelings aren't bad or non-positive. They are joyful (met needs), or painful (unmet-needs). Emotions aren't too big, but the ways we express them can be overwhelming for people! *Today, feel what you feel. Then express it in a way that can be heard🙏🏾 #PeacefulLiving (12/20)

Lea Thompson Dear Lea, Chi of LOVE (thank you), for all that you tweet to keep us informed (with you, Sophia Bush & Ellen Barkin, I'm able to work on empathic solutions, while you all keep me informed on TACO-TOTUS, un-truth social, dodgy/D-O-G-E & this DICTATOPIA/TYRANTOCRACY)

'The #ArtOfLove...is largely the art of persistence' ~Albert Ellis Demanding insists someone do something to prevent painful consequences. Persisting is continued-connection in an attempt to meet everyone's needs! *Today, shift ONE demand to a request🙏🏾 #PeacefulLiving (12/21)

WOW

Happy MLK day. Let freedom ring! #mlk #freedom

'When we change the way we look at things, the things we look @, change' ~Dr Wayne W Dyer Do you have enemy-imagery (images of others wrongness)? Guess their feelings & unmet-needs, to step out of resentment & anger. *Today, feel the pain w/o enemy-imagery🙏🏾#PeacefulLiving (1/12)

'It doesn't matter how slow you go, as long as you don't stop' ~Confucius Do you want to live in a world where everyone's needs are valued, and we honor commitment & connection? *Today, communicate with the intent of discovering yours (& their), needs🙏🏾 #PeacefulLiving (1/14)

What's a #Tyrantocracy? It's when the current president (TACO-TOTUS), and his dodgy/D-O-G-E un-truth social band of non-merry-men, use the constitution as toilet-paper... ...& those not affected (YET) think of themselves as observers of a sinking ship (vs passengers with POWER)

'There's a choice possible to us at any moment' ~M. Rukeyser #NonChoiceLanguage = words & phrases that exert morality ('should') without taking responsibility ('have to') *Today, translate 'I have to' & 'I should' into 'I choose to...because I want...'🙏🏾 #PeacefulLiving (1/29)

Happy #AmericansOfAfricanAncestryMonth👊🏾💜🙏🏾

Great leadership starts with connection; not from the corner office, but in everyday interactions grounded in kindness, empathy, and real attention. While this principal carries the responsibility of running a school and making important decisions, he never loses sight of what

Anybody remember 'animal farm', 'brave new world' and '1984'? ...what if we're inside a hybrid, being led by 'huxley/orwell' zombies? Happy #AmericansOfAfricanAncestryMonth👊🏾🏳️‍🌈🙏🏾😇

'To give means knowing how to receive' ~Ellis In order to receive appreciation, acknowledge that the person's life has been affected by your actions, and enjoy the warm feeling you have when you contribute to a life. *Today, accept someone's appreciation🙏🏾#PeacefulLiving (2/20)
