My brother wasn’t the kind of guy to buy presents for people. He hated shopping and would rather give someone money to buy what they wanted. I always teased him about that 🙂 For my birthday in 2010 he gave me this necklace, just a few months before he passed away. I remember when I…

Entrances and Exits
Most everyone is familiar with the phrase “grand entrance.” When a baby is born, she or he makes a grand entrance. When the bride begins her walk down the aisle, she makes a grand entrance.

Old Baggage
It seems it’s pretty easy these days to become mired in the negativity that seems to be enveloping our planet.

In Response
Recently I saw a video on Facebook berating people in Mississippi who, the author claimed to be stupid because they voted for President Trump. The video pinpointed people who live in poverty.

Post-Thanksgiving
Now that I’m out of my food coma from Thanksgiving, I just want to say how grateful I am to my family, friends and fellow bloggers for their continued support of me and my journey. Life is a dance and it doesn’t matter whether you tap, waltz, hip-hop, swing, or any other kind – we’re…
Goddess Gratitude
(I don’t know where I got this, but I found it in my archives, so to whoever wrote it, I am grateful). And so it is . . . From the Goddess of my being I give forth thanks. For the love that I am, for the love in my life and the love that…
Somebody’s Hero
