I used incorrect spelling intentionally to capture attention. This is an important topic that resonates today, on New Year’s Day. Most of us have or are making New Year’s resolutions for the upcoming year. We want things to be better this year than last year. We hope and pray, we dream, and we want it […]
When we look in the mirror, we can’t help but focus on our appearance, particularly our skin. We see wrinkles and new spots that weren’t there the year before, and we (hopefully) start getting checked at the doctor’s office for irregular moles. (Please do it; it can save your life.) The sun can cause significant […]
Last December, I did a post about choosing a word for the year. My word for 2024 is “manifest.” For 2025, I’ve chosen the word “execute.” EXECUTE verb To carry out or put into effect (a plan, order, or course of action). Choosing a word for the year is like your North Star. My last […]
It’s been challenging to come up with positive ideas to write about since dealing with a mighty shoulder issue. I don’t like to dwell on such things, but it’s my reality now. And we all know that what we don’t want to address will mail itself to our consciousness, and then we have no choice […]
One can’t help but reminisce about past Christmases this time of year. Being a kid at Christmas was the best! I always believed in the magic of Christmas. It wasn’t all about getting presents (although getting a new toy was pretty sweet); it was a feeling that made it special. I found peace […]
My last blog was about life beats. I wrote about how life has ups and downs, like the beating of our hearts. There’s even a neat video of a heartbeat. Check it out here. The other day, I had a bad day. We all have them. That’s when our reality gets a little too heavy, […]
I often get ideas for these blogs in the middle of the night. When I wake up, the idea comes to me, and I grab my phone to record my voice in the Notes app. Thank goodness I remembered what it was about because this is what I found when I woke several hours […]
The other day, I wanted to go for a walk. The outside air was chilly, so I thought I’d wait until the afternoon when the sun warmed up the air a bit. It was cozy in the house, and my hamstring was bothering me, so I justified that I’d a lot of […]
Now, more than ever, I think about Thanksgiving and what it means. Do you think it happens before Christmas for a reason? Perhaps that was done to encourage us to be thankful for what we have before we consider what we want. Thanksgiving has always been a time to gather with family, some of whom […]
When I thought about what to write today, the song “My Way” by Frank Sinatra came to mind. I hadn’t heard it for a long time, but I have been thinking lately about what it means to do life my way. Here are the lyrics to “My Way“ … And now, the end is near, […]
