I’m looking to learn how to forgive. I have a very specific situation in my life that is causing me a great deal of suffering, and I want to forgive, but don’t know how. It’s especially hard because the suffering isn’t limited to just me. My whole family is experiencing hurt and suffering. If anyone has experience or suggestions on how to learn how to forgive, I’d appreciate the support. ❤️

I watched a tiktok video this morning where a woman was talking about using Claude to help her plan meals. She just took a photo of her pantry and it laid it all out there for her. So, I played around in ChatGPT (that's what I'm still using). At the end of the day, we created the Joyfully Prepared Kitchen Helper. It helps figure out what's in the pantry with just a photo or two and suggests meals and recipes. It also delivers preparedness ideas. I"m pretty happy about it. I'm sure there's lot of tweaking that can be done and I'd love any suggestions from my fellow RT AI experts. www.joyfullyprepared.com/gpt Hopefully it works for y'all. It won't work on Facebook.

I received this email today and I wanted to share. The author is an aromatherapist and this is a marketing email, but I thought it to be so rich in insight. "My 20-minute drive into town has become one of my teachers. I watch how people move on the road. The impatient ones pressing forward before there's room. The cars riding side by side, unaware they've created a wall behind them. Then, every so often, someone shifts lanes, just enough to make space. And suddenly, everything begins moving again. It seems a bit mundane, but it offers a simple doorway into some deeper insights. Where in our own lives are we holding position without realizing it? Where are we so focused on our own pace that we unintentionally make it harder for someone else to move forward? And where could one small adjustment create ease? Creating space can look like listening longer. Softening our grip. Letting someone grow without needing to manage what that growth looks like. Noticing when we're tightening around our own place, and choosing to make room instead. When we allow more space within ourselves, it becomes easier to offer it to others. And from that place, we can support, encourage, and genuinely want to see one another move forward."

Are you all open to going back to book learning? While I love Ben’s stuff, it gets stale. Or maybe it’s just me. If it’s a “YES,” I’d like to suggest a book that I’ve enjoyed: Beyond Belief: The Science-Backed Way to Stop Limiting Yourself and Achieve Breakthrough Results (released March 10, 2026) by Nir Eyal, with Julie Li, explores how hidden, self-limiting beliefs dictate our actions and offers science-backed methods to replace them. It introduces the "Three Powers of Belief"—Attention, Anticipation, and Agency—to help readers reshape their mental models for improved health, relationships, and career success. If “Yes,” but a different book, provide your suggestion in the comments.

A few want to see how I set up my Claude Projects. I have found using both Claude and Chat are complimentary. @Jon Hord @Rosemary Kimani @Kavan Balasuriya
