While I view my profession as an opportunity to aid other men, as a human being I am aware of opportunities for service in everyday life.  Little things such as picking up trash, opening a door for another, or greeting a stranger are simple concrete actions that can make a difference, albeit a small one, both in the world, and in my own wellbeing.

Being there for a friend in need, fulfilling my responsibilities, and just being kind to others in this increasingly confrontative world where permission is given to be rude and selfish, are some of the ways in which I show up for “life on life’s terms.”

Recently, my mother, who lives 3000 miles away, slipped and broke her knee. My sisters, who live within a few hour’s drive, scrambled to assist her.  Thanks to having the flexibility of being able to work remotely by phone, Skype, and email), I flew in from the west coast to help. It has been a precious blessing to together arrange her environment to increase her mobility and enhance her empowerment, both in  our mutual sense of accomplishment as she negotiates the walker from one room to another and in the increased closeness in our relationship.

Similarly, I find it extremely rewarding to see my clients grow and develop in their path toward achieving their golas, dreams, and desires. I am personally gratified to know that I am participating in healing the world just a tiny little bit at a time.

I wish you all the best during this holiday season and believe in your ability to find ways to be of service – to yourselves and others.

Peace and blessings,
Samuel 🙂
