February 22nd, 2008 — Hope, Inspiration and creativity, Just thinking from Karin @ SavvyThinker.com
This is a good reminder for me. When I’m having a hard day, it is sometimes difficult to rise above it, but I never give in.
How about you, what do you do when a day is rough?

Here is your Friday story,
The Perspective Song
One day, not long ago, I decided to re-send the attitude-changing philosophy [...]

October 29th, 2007 — Age, Hope, Inspiration and creativity, beauty from Karin @ SavvyThinker.com
I only recently heard of Irena Sendler, a Polish Catholic 97 year old woman who rescued 2500 children in the Warsaw Ghetto from the gas chambers in 1942-3.
After getting the children out, she arranged ‘adoptions’ by non-Jewish families (I admire them too for the risks they took) to protect them, documenting their names in a [...]

Seeing the human and divine coincidence in the particular, [...]

August 29th, 2007 — Age, Fashion, Hope, Just thinking, beauty, cosmetics from Karin @ SavvyThinker.com

August 4th, 2007 — About God, Anger, Forgiveness, Friendship, Hope, Just thinking, Parenting from Karin @ SavvyThinker.com
I learned through years of parenting that usually there is one of three things behind a child’s tantrum: either they need food, they need sleep or they need love.
That’s such a truism for life, really. When I have a hard day, it’s generally because I need some rest, but the other two factor [...]

July 13th, 2007 — Books, Guest writer, Hope, Quotations from Karin @ SavvyThinker.com
I’m currently reading Fire in the Soul: A New Psychology of Spiritual optimism. Again, I got this from the library until I knew if I would like to own it. (I’m currently reading several of her books, serially.) Much of the book has illustrations of various types of new-agey helps that she [...]
