The 2020 Pandemic Exposed My Weaknesses, Defenses, Strengths, and Potential

Not unlike most of the world, 2020 threw me into a tailspin and exposed a shadow side I was unaware of. My last post was a tribute to turning 50, where the future was my to possess. Little did I know four weeks later, everyone's world would be turned upside down. And I would see just how emotionally unhealthy I really was.

A Letter to My 8-Year-Old Self

You'll spend a lot of your life feeling like you don't fit in. Most of the time, you'll believe it's because you're not enough, and then you'll swing to you're just too much. Somewhere along the way, you'll lose yourself, but you'll discover her again. You will actually fall in love with her, and fitting in won't seem to be that big of a deal.

Detour Ahead

Change! It's unwanted when unexpected, and embraced when desired. Change is as fickle as an Elementary school sweetheart! One day for you, and the next day against you!

Perfect Peace

Our mindset not our situations determine our peace. We can be under the most intense battle of our lives and remain in constant peace.

5 ways to make YOUR life meaningful

It's YOUR life, YOU write the 5 ways to make it meaningful! Our minds are full of everyone else's thoughts, constantly taking in what we see and hear. So much of it never takes root and becomes useless information! Is it because we don't own…

Lil' fish or Big fish? >

Talk about a tiny fish in a great big ocean! I feel like I'm the common household goldfish that someone just dumped into the sea! Totally out of my element, destined to be someone's dinner, and completely unseen and unknown.

What can be made beautiful?

Can I just be simply real tonight? Let's see what actually comes out. Here it goes...
