Are you a closet “creative”?

Posted on July 10, 2018 by Tyra Garlington • 0 Comments

Elizabeth Gilbert’s name is synonymous with her fantastically bestselling memoir, Eat Pray Love. Eat Pray Love was borne of a moment of total collapse in her life. And you can call it “chick lit,” but it’s inspired millions to move forward with their lives, differently. Through the disorienting process of becoming a global celebrity, Elizabeth Gilbert has reflected deeply on the gift and challenge of creativity. She defines creativity, in life as in art, as choosing the path of curiosity over the path of fear. This has resonance for our common life too. And, she says, it’s not to be confused with……

Would you believe Maria Shriver’s mirror has cracks?

Posted on July 3, 2018 by Tyra Garlington • 0 Comments

Maria Shriver’s life is often summarized in fairy tale terms. A child of the Kennedy clan in the Camelot aura of the early 1960s. Daughter of Eunice Kennedy Shriver, who founded the Special Olympics, and Sargent Shriver, who founded the Peace Corps. An esteemed broadcast journalist. First lady of California. She opened up with Krista Tippett during a conversation on her show, On Being, about having a personal history that is also public history — and the ordinariness that is her life and any life, however glamorous on the outside. We experience the toughness for which the women in Maria……

“Zookeepers typically strap a thin metal chain to a grown elephant’s leg and then attach the other end to a small wooden peg that’s hammered into the ground. The 10-foot tall, 10,000-pound elephant could easily snap the chain, uproot the wooden peg and escape to freedom with minimal effort. But it doesn’t. In fact, the elephant never even tries. The world’s most powerful land animal, which can uproot a tree as easily as you could break a toothpick, remains defeated by a small wooden peg and a flimsy chain. Why? Because when the elephant was a baby, its trainers used……

One Insanely Popular Love Story that Breaks Too Many Hearts. “We make our relationships so much harder than they need to be. The difficulties started when conversations became texting, feelings became subliminal, sex became a game, the word “love” fell out of context, trust faded as honesty waned, insecurities became a way of living, jealously became a cyclical routine, being hurt started to feel natural… and running away from it all became our go-to solution.

Wondrous Magical Times

Posted on June 12, 2018 by Tyra Garlington • 0 Comments

“The child held to her daddy’s hand. She stood upon his feet, and as they danced to the music, their closeness was complete. Excitedly, the little girl would wait for her daddy to speak, and as she danced in his footsteps, he knew one day another’s love she would seek. Time whirled her far from her daddy’s footsteps, into lost dreams of a magic time, void of knights and steeds and damsels saved and music filled with rhyme. Old daddy wiped away his daughter’s tears of sadness and then the tears of strife, and then held to his child’s hand,……
