    Accolades in the Wild

    Isn’t it wonderful when out of the blue you get a complement from someone you had no idea even considered you important or someone who you think didn’t notice you? Amazing what a nice word or two can do coming from the right person.

    Mini Road-trips

    Want to get your family away from screens? Put everyone on the car, go an hour or two from home and pretend your from out of state. My husband sat in the back seat with the kids and I drove. We played music and sang with the radio. Spent he day pretending to be tourists.…

    Life is Good

    You might be tired. You might be broken. You might have no money. You might be depressed. You might be lost in a world of chaos. If you have a person who loves you. Life is good. I don’t mean that they just say they love you. Anyone can say they love you and be…

  • Save the Thank You

    Save the Thank You

    If you are really thankful, say it. If you just say it to be polite you are missing an opportunity to experience gratefulness. In a society of automatic negativity, we should always look for the positive. Genuine thank yous are difficult to come by, cultivate them when you can.

  • It’s so easy…

    It’s so easy…

    Spending money is so easy. Eating that decadent dessert is so easy. Sleeping later is so easy. Speaking negatively about yourself is so easy. Self discipline is not impossible. It does take work. Being a decent human takes continual attention. If you drop your guard even a little, you find yourself three steps back on…

    Rocks in The Head

    Please don’t be that person who refuses to see that things can be different. Don’t be closed minded and think that only your shiny ideas are the best. Everyone thinks their rocks are the shinier than other people’s rocks.

  • Out of Office

    Out of Office

    How many times a week do I sit down and my writing muse does not show up to play? Let us just say several. No matter what you do creatively if inspiration doesn’t strike you, leave it alone. Walk away. Sometimes an idea will hit you when you are thinking about something else. Don’t get…

  • Give a Little

    Give a Little

    If you give a little kindness you will always get more back than you give. It may not be the same day or the same person to give it to you that you gave kindness too, however good will always return good. Fact.

  • Love and Hate

    Love and Hate

    I disagree that there is a fine line between love and hate. Rather than two monsters sitting on opposite sides of a line they can exist at the same time. You can love someone and hate them at the same time. This is not a good place to live. It’s a toxic thing. Don’t take…
