Ever since I could remember, I’ve had a purpose to my life, but I didn’t honor it. It’s one thing to have a purpose and think and say what you want from your life, but it’s a whole other ballgame when we honor it. When we honor the purpose of our lives, we have to […]
The article, 22 Facts About the Brain from the Dent Neurologic Institute states, “The average person has about 12,000 to 60,000 thoughts per day. Of those, 95% are exactly the same repetitive thoughts as the day before and about 80% are negative.” Wow, that’s a lot of thoughts in a day. I could see it, […]
Recently, I’ve had another ephiphany. I’ve been getting them a lot lately. Must be tuned into a good frequency. Walking in the woods helps. It was something that was brewing for a long time, but I wasn’t ready for the change until now. I felt like my life had stalled, and then I received what […]
The idea for this post came to me as I was drifting off to sleep. I am almost finished reading Goals! How to Get Everything You Want – Faster Than You Ever Thought Possible, by Brian Tracy. I have a few of his audiobooks and used to listen to them when I commuted to and […]
My phone updated itself, and I have no idea what was updated. I used to receive a warning to plug the phone in to power or take some action, and I would be informed about the updates. However, it now does this automatically. I saw the ‘Update Tonight’ notification on my phone and thought […]

Here’s the thing, though, if we keep saving stuff, eventually […]
If you’re like me, striving to have more, do more, be more, then this post is for you (and me!). Until I believed I deserved more, I was stuck. We can all feel this way from time to time when things don’t seem to be working out as we want. What I’ve learned is that […]
I’ve dabbled in video games like Donkey Kong, Crash Bandicoot, and the one that makes me laugh so hard it hurts, Grand Theft Auto, where I can’t control the car and keep hitting things and people. I’m not that coordinated with the controller. I’m more of a reader than a gamer. It gave me an […]
I have a meditation cushion. I used it the other day, and this idea came to me: That the in between is where we’re seen. Meaning that in a quiet mindset, we can connect with ourselves. Mediation can calm the mind. I went to a few classes and learned the technique, […]
My polka dot plant was not growing, so I put it into a pot with a dragon tree (Dracaena marginata) along with another plant cutting. That isn’t something I typically do with my plants. I only did it once before with a snake plant and philodendron, and they are cohabiting quite nicely in the same […]
