What If Life Is Just A Dream -
Susan Thom (12,047)    
Susan Thom 
I believe in angels, and not just angels in human form, angels with wings. Huge, white, soft and magnificent wings. Sometimes, I've sworn to myself that I felt their wings around my body. A hug when one was needed. They come to give me energy when I'm depleted, and they listen when I'm worried... ( added 1 year 113 days ago.) |
We Are All Connected -
Susan Thom (12,047)
Susan Thom
There is a connection between the Light who created me, and when I pray about a certain circumstance or situation or person, I can feel the energy of my source of life giving me answers.

Why Can’t The Truth Be Enough -
Susan Thom (12,047)
Susan Thom
Everyone has their own opinion of the same situation, the same person, the same political candidates, the same laws, the same taxes we all have to pay, the same child rearing, and yet, the truth is stretched, twisted, changed, and made to conform to whomever is telling "the story." It is only a... ( added 1 year 118 days ago.) |
Low Self-Esteem Indicted and Sentenced to Death -
 - Avis Ward (11,455) 
Avis Ward
There is a distinct difference between confidence and arrogance. To have
confidence in one's self and the ability to perform confidently in our work is
required. What this article addresses is not work-related self-esteem
but personal. It is quite possible, however, for personal self-esteem... ( added 1 year 119 days ago.) |
The Truth May Not Be Your Reality -
Susan Thom (12,047)
Susan Thom
Let's say one of your friends tells you something disturbing about your new neighbors. Maybe the husband is cheating, maybe the wife, maybe you heard the husband is a cross dresser. Another friend tells you he spends his paychecks on woman's clothes. All the neighbors laugh when they see him... ( added 1 year 119 days ago.) |
What Exactly Is Willpower -
Susan Thom (12,047)
Susan Thom
The strength of will to carry out what the World is demanding of you at the time, and the energetic determination to succeed in solving whatever you are up against, are the attributes I believe are needed to have Will Power. We need not only survive, but also to thrust forward and add positive... ( added 1 year 125 days ago.) |
What A Godsend To Be Able To Write -
Susan Thom (12,047)
Susan Thom
Not everyone can write a coherent, interesting, thought provoking article or story, not even those of us who try with each new submission. However, most writers who can capture readers with their mind's thoughts and images, and keep them interested, and maybe even pass some knowledge along... ( added 1 year 126 days ago.) |
What Does"I Don't Care", Really Mean -
Susan Thom (12,047)
Susan Thom
How many times do we say "I don't care" in a lifetime? How many times do we actually mean it? Why then do we say it? What draws our attention to those three words? "Do you want another piece of cake?" "I don't care." Well, either you do care but you don't want to seem like a glutton, or you... ( added 1 year 127 days ago.) |
When All Else Fails, There’s Always Reality -
Susan Thom (12,047)
Susan Thom
I believe we spend so much of our lives trying to escape the painful thoughts and hurtful memories of our day to day existence, that we don't realize how much of our lives could be calmer and more in balance if we would just learn to face reality. Reality is going to happen whether we go along... ( added 1 year 130 days ago.) |
What Is Anonymity In A Twelve Step Program And Why Is It Important -
Susan Thom (12,047)
Susan Thom
When a person's soul has lost it's vibrancy, it's light, and it's safety, and the mundane chores of our normal routine get more depressing, alcohol or drugs, food, sex, gambling, internet surfing, or sleeping, start to take possession of our life force. We drink more, do more quantities of drugs... ( added 1 year 132 days ago.) |
Don’t Try To Defeat Me Before You Meet Me -
Susan Thom (12,047)
Susan Thom
Did you ever have a friend who told you all about a companion of theirs? In their eyes, the companion was abrupt and sour and unreasonable at times. However, they had known each other for a long time, and they remained friends in spite of one's irritability at the other's character traits. This... ( added 1 year 136 days ago.) |
What Kind Of Equity Do You Have In Yourself -
Susan Thom (12,047)
Susan Thom
Way back when we were little kids, we were beginning to store up equity in our little memory banks. We listened to what adults conversed about, other kids, pastors, nuns, priests, books, teachers, movies and TV. We had been born with our own individual minds, and our ideas about what we were...

Running Towards The Future, Or Away From The Past -
Susan Thom (12,047)
Susan Thom
Most of us have had some sort of traumatic experience or experiences from our childhood, which have become buried in our souls and psyches, and cause us much damage, especially if we are unaware they even exist. Something, or some experience, is holding us back, causing anger and heartache and... ( added 1 year 140 days ago.) |
Yesterday Is Gone With The Wind -
Susan Thom (12,047)
Susan Thom
Some of us don't even remember what we did yesterday, or what we had for dinner, or what problems we faced. With a few minutes thought, we might be able to come up with the answers, but yesterday is gone with the wind, and will never return. If there are situations we must take care of, we should...

What Do God And Santa Have In Common -
Susan Thom (12,047)
Susan Thom
Some don't believe in God, and that's their right. Some believe in a God who created them, and who they'll meet when they reach the pearly gates, with no interaction in between, and that's their right. I personally think God has all the time in the world, and keeps tabs on all of His children... ( added 1 year 149 days ago.) |
Why Perfect-ionism IS a Weakness -
Laura Trahan (38,784)  
Laura Trahan
When I was in college, I took a course on how to get a job. The course included subjects like how to write a resume, dress for an interview and what to say during interviews.
I remember the instructor handing out a sheet that had "great" stock answers for interview questions. I remember one of... ( added 1 year 153 days ago.) |
What Is True Integrity -
Susan Thom (12,047)
Susan Thom
There are a list of adjectives that describe integrity, and I believe most of them stem from having good, decent parents who teach their children these morals from an early age. The first adjective is honesty. So many people have a hard time with honesty. They may be embarrassed to admit the... ( added 1 year 157 days ago.) |
Where Is Our Faith, If We Live In Fear -
Susan Thom (12,047)
Susan Thom
Faith is something that develops over a period of time. Things happen that make us feel someone is looking out for us. The more experiences we have of this nature, the more Faith we have. We believe in God, and His power and wisdom, but we can't see our belief. It's not a blanket that we can... ( added 1 year 164 days ago.) |
How Will Our Kids Make It In Today’s Economy -
Susan Thom (12,047)
Susan Thom
When I was growing up in the 70's, the biggest goal I had was to get a good job, my own apartment, furniture, credit, and a decent car. I was able to pay my 300 dollars a month, and afford the gas for my car, food to eat, and clothes to wear. I was totally independent of my parents, and I felt... ( added 1 year 166 days ago.) |
Material Things Come And Go, The Spirit Lives On Forever -
Susan Thom (12,047)
Susan Thom
The Spirit of God lives in our soul, through which all happiness should emanate. And yet, from the moment of birth, we are showered with material conveniences and desires. A nice soft blanket, comfy little clothes, plush toys, cozy crib, fun stroller, bottle filled with formula. And so it... ( added 1 year 167 days ago.) |
Why Are You Here? What’s Your Purpose? Part 1 -
- Jim Murdoch (28)  
Jim Murdoch
Why do you like doing certain things more than others? Why do some things
interest you and some things don't interest you at all? Have you noticed that

The Pitty Pot Won't Do You Any Good -
Susan Thom (12,047)
Susan Thom
How often do we find ourselves getting upset over trivial things, that are just a waste of our precious time? We talk to a friend and all we can hear them saying is, "My basement flooded yesterday, and my washer just died, and my table would look better over there, but I have no one to help me...

Don't Let Resentment Trap You In An Angry Mind -
Susan Thom (12,047)
Susan Thom
Resentment is said to be one of our biggest offenders. "From it stems all forms of spiritual disease, for we have not only been mentally and physically ill, we have been spiritually sick." This is from The Big Book Of a Twelve Step Program. It goes on to tell us what to do to rid ourselves of any... ( added 1 year 180 days ago.) |
Can You Sit Still For A Minute -
Susan Thom (12,047)
Susan Thom
I have had friends that were constantly on the go. They couldn't sit still for a minute. They weren't even finished with what they were doing before they were already trying to do something else. They were involved with their families to the point of being nurse maid, chauffeur, confidante, cook... ( added 1 year 198 days ago.) |
