Raise your hand if you like chaos and confusion! No hands? That's what I thought. The world can be a very tumultuous and confusing place filled with strife, division, and conflict leading to war, the ultimate form of violence. There are two types of violence, active and passive. Active violence uses force whereas passive violence uses words and thoughts which seem a lot less harmful, right? Wrong! Words are important and can hurt so deeply leading to acts of active violence. Yet, where do we spend most of our time? In our thoughts. Thoughts cannot be seen by others, only known by the thinker. If violent thoughts occupy one's mind, such thoughts can guide one to commit acts of violence. Passive violence is the fuel that feeds the fire of active violence leading to riots and wars. We all must look inward and take note of our own words and thoughts. Awareness is key in order to correct ourselves and it starts with the individual in order to propagate in society to build a culture of peace.

In the most trying of situations, we oftentimes find the most comfort and support from our friends. We construct our social ecosystems carefully by hand selecting those that fulfill our various needs. From short-term acquaintances we see for humor, light fun and socializing, to long-term pillars of strength who help navigate us through the loss of a loved one, friendships are the gold in our lives. They are the gold that we choose, not a relation by genetics. Cherish them and nurture them. Your friends have your back, not stab you in yours. Let your intuition guide you for a gut check to filter our those that do not enhance your life. It will be the greatest gift you give yourself.

It’s a new year and the perfect time for new beginnings. It’s a time for reflection to determine what is most important to us. Life is more fulfilling when we find a purpose or a “why” for what we do. Oftentimes that important thing becomes a driving force to which you want to commit and continue doing, otherwise known as a mission. Some of us find our mission while others may still be searching. There are many benefits to having a life mission not only for others but for ourselves. Join our discussion which may help you discover a mission or even help you solidify and expand your current one.

Karma is certainly a very complex concept, yet is very simplistic in its definition. Society is becoming more and more aware of karma, as we see the word in pop culture on t-shirts, coffee mugs, memes and used in conversation. Whether or not one has a full understanding of its meaning is not important. As in the law of gravity, it exists whether you believe it or not. Just try jumping off of your roof and see what happens. It’s guaranteed you will not fly.
