Heart of a Woman is a treasure trove of inspirational insights into the hearts of women as they, and as men who love them, tell it. Sheryl Roush has compiled a wonderful resource that just makes you feel good for having picked it up and read an entry or two.

Heart of a Woman SPANISH Version receives Rave Reviews

Corazón de Mujer
Heart of a Woman SPANISH Version receives Rave Reviews

Corazón de Mujer, Heart of a Woman, captures eloquently and beautifully the myriad aspects of a woman’s nature and thoughts. Sheryl Roush shows her emotional and intellectual depth in this carefully selected collection of quotations and beautiful writings for, about, and by women.

I was mesmerized beyond words by her cleverness in organizing the varied sources of material in a way that made sense and made it easy to enjoy. Her Heart Book Series (Heart of a Mother and Heart of the Holidays) lives up to its title. It’s brimming with heart!

Utterly refreshing, Corazón de Mujermade me laugh and cry, moved me and touched me, and made me aware of things that, both in women and in myself, I didn’t know about. This collection is a celebration of womanhood. Every woman in my life deserves a copy!

Time to Lighten-Up!

Heart of a Mother, Heart of a Woman, Heart of the Holidays, Humor, Tips & Trivia| No Comments »

Time to Lighten-Up!

Most people are so stressed today, doing our best to keep up with things, paying bills, handling tasks, taking ourselves too seriously. Too often we forget to take time, smell the roses, get outside and away from the computer, enjoy sunshine in our face, get off the cell phone, and just “be” or find the little joys every day. This serious of “stress” is the top killer today in our culture.

“A merry heart does a spirit good.” Children laugh at everything!  The average four-year-old laughs about 500 times each day… and their giggles are contagious! The average adult laughs only 10-15 times a day!

Research indicates that 15 minutes of belly-laughing a day gives the same stress-reducing effects as 6-8 hours of meditation, prayer or SLEEP!  Laughter is inner-jogging, or massage for the heart – lowering blood pressure, boosting the immune system, increasing creativity and problem-solving, creating better cooperation between people and improved safety. How can we lighten up?

Entertain yourself.
Put on funny or crazy slippers first thing in the morning, giggling when you put them on.
Notice the silly things YOU do throughout the day.
Wear something outrageous and out-of-style, (a hat, funny socks, cartoon bandages, silly panties) just because.
Take photos of you with your closest friends, pets or family, and have them on your desk at the office.

Be entertained.
Sit back and observe your pet… their nature, the funny little things they do which are cute.
Laugh at others, lovingly, observing absurd things people do.
Look at signs posted, how funny they read.
Next time your spouse does something that bothers you, pull back and find the humor in it instead.

Life is too short – to take it too seriously!

3 GOLDEN RULES FOR RELATIONSHIP SUCCESS

Heart of a Mother, Heart of a Woman, Tips & Trivia, Valentine's Day| No Comments »

3 GOLDEN RULES FOR RELATIONSHIP SUCCESS
by Tricia Greaves, Speaker


1. FORGIVE HIM AS EASILY AS HE FORGIVES YOU

How many times has he forgiven you for your mistakes? Are  you able to forgive him with the same readiness and willingness? We are quick  to assume that our ditzy transgressions (misplacing our keys, forgetting to close the garage door, sending the credit card payment in late, never closing  the shower curtain all the way) is cute. So we’re a little distracted, so  what?? WE can giggle about it, why can’t HE? Yet when he pulls his own version doing things that we think he ought to know better than to do, we get  irritated and snippy. We hope that our stern, disapproving demeanor will help  him realize the error of his ways and that perhaps, finally, he’ll straighten up and fly right. If we don’t teach him a lesson, who will? Hint: it’s time to  learn to forgive AND to forget! You punishing and controlling nature won’t ever  help a relationship heal, so it’s time to take a deep breath and. GET OFF IT!

2. DON’T  EXPECT HIM TO MAKE YOU HAPPY
We all do it. We spend countless hours imagining that if  only we had a man, we’d be happy. Then, by hook or by crook, we get him and  TA-DA! We’re still not happy. Then we decide that if only he would do better,  look better, be more attentive, then we’d be happy. So we spend the next several decades trying to get him to do rightso we’ll be happy. The truth is  that it’s not another’s job to make us happy. And if you’re pining over having a relationship that you don’t yet have, you’d better check your motives for  wanting one. If it’s because you believe it will make you happy, it won’t. Unless you’re already happy. It occurred to me one day many years ago, that if  I can’t stand my own company (hence emotionally eating to distract myself from me) why should I force another person to be with me? I need to do whatever it  takes to be comfortable with myself before bringing someone else into my world. If you’re already married – please – search within yourself for the true source of your unhappiness and do everything you can to heal. It’s not his fault if  you’re unhappy. Chances are you were unhappy long before you met him. Be honest  about it! 

3. DON’T COMPARE HIM TO ANY OTHER MAN
The human mind (ego) is incessantly dissatisfied with what is. We always wish for something different. We assume that we’ve somehow messed up and should have done a better job choosing our mates. The proverbial “grass  is greener” on the other side of the fence and somehow the traits of our friends’ mates seem more charming than those of our own. The fact is that you probably didn’t choose wrong. God knew just what he was doing and you have plenty of growth opportunities right where you are (it is all about growth, not  happiness, after all). If you will concentrate on the good things about your spouse that are right in front of you, instead of fantasizing about the traits you wish he had (and certainly never will have if you keep disapproving him), you will be a happier person, and a much more enjoyable spouse.

Story: The Piano Master

Heart of a Mother, Heart of a Woman, Stories| No Comments »

THE PIANO MASTER
 
A mother, wishing to encourage her son’s progress at the piano, bought tickets to a Paderewski performance.  When the evening arrived, they found their seats near the front of the concert hall and eyed the majestic Steinway on the stage. Soon the mother found a friend to talk to, and the boy slipped away. 
 
The lights in the auditorium began to dim, the spotlights came on, and only then did they notice the boy – up on the piano bench – innocently picking out "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star."  His mother gasped, but before she could retrieve her son, the master appeared on the stage and quickly moved to the keyboard.
 
He whispered to the boy, "Don’t quit. Keep playing." 
Leaning over, Paderewski reached down with his left hand and began filling ion the bass part. Soon his right arm reached around the other side and improvised a delightful obbligato. Together, the old master and the young novice held the crowd mesmerized.
 
In our lives, unpolished though we may be, it is the Master who surrounds us and whispers in our ear time and time again, "Don’t quit. Keep playing."
 
And, as we do, He augments and supplements until a work of amazing beauty is created.

Valentines’ Day Love Poem

Heart of a Mother, Heart of a Woman, Poems, Valentine's Day| No Comments »

LOVE
by Roy Croft

I love you not only for what you are,
but for what I am when I am with you.

I love you not only for what you have made
of yourself, but for what you are making of me.

I love you for the part of me that you bring out.

I love you for putting your hand
into my heaped up heart and for passing over
all of the foolish things you can’t
help dimly seeing there,
and for drawing out into the light
all of the beautiful belongings
that no one else has looked quite
far enough to find.

I love you because you have
done more than any creed
could have done to make me good
and more than any fate could
have done to make me happy.

You have done it without a touch,
without a word, without a sign.

You have done it by being yourself –
Perhaps that is what being a friend means, after all.

Happy Valentine’s Day!
