Unchanging Views
I can say that I have always fallen in the middle of conservatives and liberals. My political view is and has always been pro-human rights and freedom. Let people be who they are and let them vote for their values and beliefs. Speak the truth and it is up to each person to decide if…

266 Days
I have been off social media for 266 days. That is 266 days of no mindless scrolling. There are three exceptions to my social media fast. When someone says “Hey did you see I posted…?” I have gone to look at particular posts. Almost all of them from my family with a few, very few…

Be Real
I see red when a human puts on a fake air. It is difficult to explain but you know it when you see it. They try too hard to come across as they think you want to see them. Often they say things that they think you want to hear instead of telling you the…

It’s Rare
What quality do you value most in a friend? Loyalty. It’s really simple. If you can’t be loyal to your friends, even if you disagree with them, are you truly a friend? Light & Love, Lori

What I learned about Daughters so far.
I learned while raising four girls that I don’t know anything. Raising teenagers is not for the faint of heart. Being a parent is hard. H.A.R.D.! I am in the middle of this war, and if you think it is not a war, you are wrong. We, parents, are fighting social media, society, other parents,…
