Better For It To Be Raining

What happens when it rains? Sure, it’s gray outside and could be cold and damp, but the positive is that it cleanses and purifies. Most people complain about the rain, but rain is a life force. It helps crops grow, and wildlife have water in arid climates. For us, here, a summer rain could help […]

Da Nile is a river in Egypt

I knew the definition of denial (refusal to admit the truth or reality of something). When I looked it up, there was another definition for denial (refusal to satisfy a request or desire.) So, denial is also a refusal to satisfy a request or desire. Huh, that made me think about how much I have […]

Crystals Can Help

I have always been a prayer—not the word thing, a person who prays. I don’t know how else to write it. I was raised Catholic and learned prayers. In stressful moments, praying helped me calm down and know that things would change for the better. I believe praying or whatever meditative ritual you believe in […]

Go Just a Little More

I’m not sure how many people care. I mean, give a shit about stuff like being a good person, being honest and kind, having manners, and the like. How many of us work at being a decent person? I know I do. I’m not writing that with a cocky attitude; just letting you know that […]

And… Action!

I’ve been MIA since my last blog post on April 7th. I had some personal health issues to contend with, but everything is okay, and I’m back. For the last week or so, I could not come up with anything to write about. I thought I had lost my creative writing mojo. Then, my husband […]

How Are Your Boundary Bubbles?

You can have boundaries and not even know it. Boundaries protect us. Our minds let us know when our boundaries are crossed, just like an alarm system on a house that lets the owner know something is wrong. Since we’re the owners of our minds, we can sense an impending boundary crosser and do something […]

We Need To Cool It!

There are so many ways we lose sight of the big picture. We go through life blind a lot of the time. It’s sad, really, how many of us, myself included, feel like days fly by and there is not enough time in a day to get done what we want to do. I fight […]

You Can Pass

    Many of us feel a sense of obligation to family, friends, our jobs, etc. I’m here to tell you that you can pass on that if you want. Some of the things we can pass on are wasting time and getting sucked into drama. If you’re doing something you don’t want to be […]
