Grudge? Well….
Are you holding a grudge? About? I can hold grudges. I try not to hold on to negative things, but sometimes I catch myself complaining about past hurts. I say to myself, “Wait a minute, maybe I didn’t actually let that one go.” To hold a grudge is to be human. To forgive is divine.…

Home
Share a story about the furthest you’ve ever traveled from home. My first thought is home is in Florida. I’ve been to England, so for distance that’s the furthest. I was six. My grandfather kept telling me, “When you get to London you will have tea with the Queen.” I believed him. The first time…

I don’t Cry
What brings a tear of joy to your eye? I think this question is meant to provoke sweet stories of deep feelings and tranquillity. Sorry folks, not happening here. I used to cry at every little thing. Then life happened. I learned that my tears are only valuable to me. If I have a tear…

Depends on the Goal
How do you plan your goals? I have always been a fly by the seat of my pants sort of human in my personal life. I spend a lot of time in my day job and career working toward goals and targets, so in my home life I prefer spontaneity. My life is very much…

Seriously , Bruh
What is a word you feel that too many people use? I cringe every time I hear “Seriously!” It is so over used. While I’m complaining, let me add that “Bruh” is a sound not a word. Stop saying it. What happened to elegant conversation with meaningful words? One of the many degradations of society…

Peace for a Time
What brings you peace? Simple things…sitting next to my husband holding his hand or listening to his voice. Reading. Watching the rain. Petting my sleeping puppy. Counting stitches a I watch the needle go in and out of my embroidery fabric. Sitting in a room with silence. These things bring me peace, just not all…
