I like the way we released my dad last weekend. He died about a month ago and didn't want a traditional funeral. So it took a while to figure out how to say good-bye, but I think we did okay.
We created an unusual memorial; Dad would have liked that. A small family procession toured his childhood neighborhood and remembered him at the places where he laughed and played and probably caused his share of mischief. We visited the old family home, the school he attended as a child, and the park where he skated on cold Midwestern evenings.
We drove past the high school he barely survived and shared a few memories at the football field and running track where he earned the all-state honors he was so reluctant to talk about. We stopped at the nearly abandoned railroad yard where Dad and Grandpa both began their careers and lifelong love affair with trains. Grandpa was a steam engine man, Dad knew diesels and electrics.
Each stop prompted stories, laughs, and tears as we recalled the seasons of a remarkable life formed in unremarkable places. Dad would have enjoyed the stories and laughs, and hated the tears, but he would have appreciated this unconventional celebration. We scattered some of his ashes at each site, probably violating all sorts of laws in the process. Dad would have liked that bit of rebellion as well.
We visited the grave of a favorite niece who died too young, and left a bit of him there as well. We all liked the idea that they could spend some time together.
At the traditional family burial plot, we paused to remember Grandpa, Grandma, and Dad's youngest brother. More stories, more broken rules as we left part of Dad with his parents, a bit more solemn here as though each of us needed time for personal reflection.
Then we each took a balloon to an open spot, waited briefly, and released them into the windy morning sky. Everyone said goodbye in their own way, and then we watched as the brightly colored dots faded into the grey clouds. I stared intently, trying to keep sight of one small image, but at last they were gone.
It was a wonderful symbol of release and freedom for me. No point in staring at the sky, hoping for a glimpse of something that wasn't there any longer.

Create Wealth by Working Smarter, Not Harder
Why is it that people feel they need to work so much harder in order to create wealth? I personally have found that there is a far easier way to create wealth and that is by working smarter and not harder.
Why risk working yourself to the point of burnout if there is this other option available to you? By working smarter you will free up a lot more time for yourself to be able to concentrate your attention on the things which will bring you closer to achieving your goals.
Here are a couple of ways for you to begin to work smarter and not harder:
Stop letting the time wasters keep you from achieving your goals and prioritize - By establishing what is important for you to focus your attention on, you will be able to cut out all of the useless time wasting tasks which you normally allow to fill your day.
Learn to automate - Many of the tasks which we do on a daily basis are very repetitive. Look for ways to automate these tasks so as to free up the time you would have spent on them.
Remain focused - Be aware of what it is that you need to focus on in order to be able to achieve your goals and remain focused on these things.
Keep it simple - Many times in life we allow ourselves to make things more complicated than they really are. Find ways to simplify what it is you need to do and try to remember to keep it simple.
Learn to say no - If you know that you have enough to keep you busy, learn to say no when others try to load their problems on you. A lot of our time is wasted trying to make things easier for others when we really need to be focused on what it is we need to get done.
These are but a few of the simple ways that you will be able to begin to work smarter and not harder. By applying them in your daily life you will soon realize that you have a lot more time on your hands to be able to concentrate on reaching your own goals and creating a life of wealth and abundance.

Mental Strength Based on Vision and Passion
Yataro Iwasaki, the founder of Mitsubishi Corporation, Japan, tells us the importance of vision and passion. It is not just a slogan. It is not just beautiful and fancy words. His personal history gives us clearly about bitter actuality walking the course to be successful.
Yataro Iwasaki was born in Lower Class Samurai family, who normally could not get education provided by local government that time in Japan. That did not discourage him at all when he was young. He educated himself while he was selling birdcages to support his family in his teens.
Later, he nominated himself to study in Edo (Tokyo) and could learn there. His academic achievement drew higher-class management, and he was selected to be an Edo business staff of the local government. His father was arrested when he was in Edo for street fight with higher-class Samurai. He came home to save his father and appealed his father's innocence to his government. He was fired. He was fired several times in his life. This was his first time.
He and his father were put in a jail for a while, after he was released, he reclaimed his innocence and expertise and hired back. Higher-class Samurai colleagues did not like Iwasaki sat in a higher position than them. Iwasaki was again accused of no reason and fired again.
Ryoma Sakamoto, who later became the central figure in Meiji restoration, picked up Iwasaki and Sakamoto and Iwasaki became independent partners, giving birth to "Kaien-tai", the first modern trading company in Japan. "Kaien-tai" later became "Mitsubishi Corporation". His humbleness made him say that he was just fortunate. He would not be able to keep going without passion and vision.
It may not be just Mr. Yataro Iwasaki who talks about "Vision and Passion". Successful leaders emphasize the importance of emotional strength, putting aside smartness. Iwasaki was later calling himself a stubborn, inflexible, bungler. He lost his positions given from his master several times. That made him an independent entrepreneur. Once he believed in himself, he did not change, no matter who tried to persuaded him. One example is that a son of Samurai family became a merchant. His family and friends stopped him because it is downgrading himself. He believed that Samurai would one day give ways to merchants. Society changed as he predicted.
In the era of rapid change such as Meiji restoration, modernization of Japan from Samurai, Shogunate days, there appear miraculously prominent people like Mr. Iwasaki. He might call himself stubborn, inflexible bungler. People today calls him venture business entrepreneur in Meiji Era. He tried everything he saw the future. He failed some, but he was successful in changing the society. Being called a person with "Iron Mental Strength", the foundation supported his mental strength was Vision and Passion.

Loneliness
When you close your doors, and make darkness within, remember never to say that you are alone, for you are not alone; nay, God is within, and your genius is within. And what need have they of light to see what you are doing? Epictetus
Have you ever felt that no one understands what's going on in your life? That you don't have the words for it? That even if you could find the words, nobody would have the time to really listen? That you are on your own?
You can be in a crowd and on your own. At work and on your own. In church and on your own. In love and on your own. On Facebook and on your own. Wierd how that works. Loneliness is simply this - when you can't find a valid connection between yourself and anyone else. You can be laughing, talking, involved and yet completely cut off. On the other side of the valley. Unseen.
How does it happen? Loneliness creeps up like a shadow on a summer's day. It is not darkness but an absence of light. A slow change of perspective.
Why does it happen? You move on. You move geographically away from the people who know you. You move physically as your body changes. You encounter obstacles or challenges that others have not met. Whatever happens, you are different.
And in all of this, there's the Lord. He takes you to a secret place where only He can find you. And this is the bittersweet part. There are times, and they may be looonger than we would like, when He wants you alone. All His. Far from being alone, we are His. He does some of His best work in private.

Dealing With Grief
Its been a little over a year now since my oldest sister's death and 17 years since my dad passed away. Death of a loved one is never easy to get through. I still grieve today over my dad's death to this day. Time definitely heals the pain but I do not think it ever really goes away completely.
Everyone grieves differently, I have noticed. Some people sink into deep depression for quite a spell, some totally immerse themselves in their work or hobby, and yet others find a new meaning to their lives and begin doing things they would have never thought about before. There is nothing wrong with any of those ways of dealing with grief except for deep depression. If you find yourself sinking into deep depression it is always best to seek professional help before it gets too out of control. Some depression is completely normal, usually cannot be side stepped. Its only when it begins to interfere with your daily responsibilities that it becomes a problem that needs attention.
When my dad died 17 years ago it was the first death in the family that I had ever experienced, besides the death of a great uncle when I was around 4 years old. When you are 4 years old you cannot grasp the meaning of death, so it was not anything majorly traumatic to me. What made it even more difficult was having issues in the father & daughter relationship that was never addressed. There was never the closure I yearned for. The thing I felt the best about was the letter I wrote to him while he was on his deathbed, with the encouragement of my therapist at the time. In the letter I wrote to him that I forgave him for what he had done (read "life after sexual abuse article on my blog") and that I still loved him, yet I let him also know of the pain and difficulty he had caused me in my adult life. I think writing this letter was very important as it released many hidden thoughts and emotions that had been locked up inside me for many years. Though I never heard the words "I am sorry" come from his mouth I had this sense that he really was sorry but just could not ever admit that he had ever committed this act because it was simply too painful to accept.
Today, the grief I still experience from his death has much to do with the feelings of sadness. Its another type of grief. It is a sadness about the things I felt I missed out on in childhood, the lack of a close relationship with my father. The memories I have of him are a mixed bag. Some are of how good of dad he was with making sure I had everything I needed such as food, clothing and shelter and not to mention extra luxuries. Other memories are made up of complete fear, worry and anxiety. Yet today, I still miss him greatly and have had many dreams of him being alive and well. He was a good person with an enormous giving heart who just so happened to have some really dark secrets from his past. I do not hold any resentments toward him for the pain he has caused me in my life, its just one of those many unfortunate things that can happen to anyone in life. He never broke the sick cycle of sexual abuse from his own childhood. That is a sad thought, but true. I feel fortunate that I am where I am today and have experienced the many traumatic things I have so that it helps me connect with others on a more personable level. It created more compassion in me for others and a genuine desire to help those that may be suffering things I have already healed from.
When my sister died a littler over a year ago, I had a very hard time grasping the reality of it. It triggered all kinds of emotions in me of the past. My sister was a natural born leader, took after our dad. Our relationship was somewhat close at times in our lives but drifted often. She struggled with the same issues involving sexual abuse as a child just as I did along with my other sister. She always felt a deep need to protect her siblings since she was the oldest. The effects of the abuse in her childhood created numerous problems later in her life that eventually ended her precious life too soon, along with numerous physical issues, which I believe all stem from the inability to overcome the effects of sexual abuse. This too, makes me feel really sad. I feel sad about how hard she tried to overcome all this and how much she truly loved her 5 children and her loving husband. She was only 55 years old and had so much love in her heart.
I think when you experience a death in the family, or even a close friend, that sitting down and doing nothing is the worst thing you can do. Get yourself involved with an activity you have always loved to do, get involved with a grief group with others who understand what you are going through and can offer support and encouragement, make new friends, get a new hobby, etc. Do not allow yourself to isolate. There are plenty of other people out there that have gone through the same thing and are more than willing to offer their support and are also looking for support themselves. By reaching out to others you will find you heal much quicker.
I have heard of some people that actually decide to have a celebration when their loved one dies instead of a regular funeral. I feel a little mixed about that subject. I think its a wonderful thought indeed. They say that their loved one would have wanted them to celebrate instead of be sad. I can understand that to some degree, but I also think that it would be more appropriate to schedule a celebration at a little later date, perhaps. Maybe these people that do that were raised with that kind of tradition, which would be a different story, I guess.

Are You Hiding From Your Challenges?
Are there challenges in your life that you really don't understand? And do you actually avoid looking at these challenges because you are not competent in your ability to move beyond them?
Recently it has become more and more obvious to me that spiritually conscious women are very good at seeing the best and focusing on the good. The flip side of this is that they can be very good at ignoring the bad, especially the challenges that they don't know what to do about.
At first this appears to be a good thing, when you consider the Law of Attraction. But Ive found for myself that this ignoring of the challenges can be more harmful than good. And there is a real powerful energy to a person who is willing to look, to be honest with herself about what is going on and then to find a solution.
I remember when I was first building my business, I wanted to be at a point of success where I could be only doing what I loved and fully leave my old career behind. I would be visualizing, focusing on the good and still nothing was really happening to take me forward financially in the way I had wanted. Rather than face what was happening honestly, I tried to just put a happy face on through it and expect it to all work out.
What I didn't realize is that there were many aspects to this challenge that I needed to see and understand if it was ever going to get better. And after a major life change I didn't have a choice anymore, I needed to move beyond this challenge and fast.
So what did I do?
I stopped trying to just "be positive" and I really allowed myself to take an honest look at it all. It was not necessarily comfortable but I knew I needed to do this. Because the truth I've found is that you can't change what you don't face.
You attract what matches your ENTIRE energy, what you're conscious of AND what is below the surface. Might as well face the darkness within you so you can finally begin to attract the reality that you want. There is light in your awareness that can break up the darkness, allow you to see things in a new way and allow you to have powerful realizations that can take you forward.
What I saw clearly was that I was lacking the business knowledge to take my business beyond the point I had taken it to. And with the added drive that the life changes had given me (others might call this a crisis!), I had the energy behind me to find the way. To take what was a huge challenge for me and to turn it around into a major success.
Within 5 months of doing this my business was 300% higher than it was the year before. I had the courage to look. I saw what I needed to see and I allowed myself to take new actions, get the support I needed, the support the Universe had brought right to me, to overcome this challenge and to be guided to a new way of being.
None of which would have been possible had I not taken an honest look and faced the challenges rather than pretending they don?t exist. So what is the big challenge in your life that you have been avoiding?
Do you see that by doing this you were affirming the belief that there is no solution or way out?
What if instead you affirmed that you could create whatever you want, that you would be guided forward, that the answers and solutions would come to you?
Imagine what you could create then?
Start now. Write down on a piece of paper what the challenge is that you haven't been facing. And let yourself write all about it Be willing to discover more about yourself, what has been driving you in this area and what fears you have about it. Let yourself look, bring the light of your awareness to this dark place and see possibilities where there was once impossibility.
Don't fear what you can't see, face it! There's a gift in it and can only be opened once you look directly into it. Do you feel held back from living a life that's you, from living your deeper purpose and creating the life you know you?re meant to live?
