This is a guest post by Christina where she answers a reader's question ... "After being laid off for the 3rd time in 3 1/2 years I'm having a hard time staying positive, yet I know it is important because positive energy will attract better experiences. I know I need a change, but I'm worried about how our family will survive. Our family has experienced many financial and emotional setbacks..."

"I was wondering if you could help me understand how to forgive myself. My childhood was not that great, and I try my best to be a good mother to my children but make a lot of mistakes. I've read a lot of books on how to be a better parent, and I'm doing much better, but I can't get over the things I've done in the past. My children have forgiven me, but I can't forgive myself." ~ Anna
