I’m assuming most of us have heard of or have played the game of “Two Truths and One Lie” at one point or another in our lives. In case you haven’t yet, it’s a game usually played with friends, though not a requirement, where a person tells the audience two truths and one lie aboutContinue reading “Two Truths and One Lie”

Try a Different View
I saw this post today and I thought about how truthful and pertinent it is, especially at this time. As we look forward to Thanksgiving and the rest of the holiday season some of us are tempted to start checking the boxes for all the things we’re not or don’t have. Some will start measuringContinue reading “Try a Different View”
Speak Up!
When I was much younger, speaking up was just not my thing. I grew up in the shadows of older siblings and cousins, so in a sense I never really had a chance to. You could say my lowly status on the “food chain” ensured my opinions, if I even had any, were gobbled upContinue reading “Speak Up!”
We Lit Up the Night
Last night along with a few family members and close friends we took part in the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society’s annual Light the Night Fundraiser. We literally lit up the night with lanterns and fireworks in an effort to raise funds to advance cures and provide support for people currently undergoing the fight against variousContinue reading “We Lit Up the Night”
As the Sun Sets on September
So, it’s official fall has sprung, or does that term only apply to Spring? Whatever the case there is no denying fall is here. As the weather gets cooler, the leaves start changing and we get deeper into the hurricane season it is clear September is the end of that grace period between the sunnyContinue reading “As the Sun Sets on September”
Adversity or Opportunity?
It’s only natural for us to want things to go well, nobody wants to struggle needlessly. We want our finances to flow, our relationships to work, and we all want to live good long healthy lives. We strive to be successful because we love being winners and we love all the attention and accolades thatContinue reading “Adversity or Opportunity?”
The Blank Page
Feature Image: Pinterest We all come into this world kicking and screaming. Well, maybe not all of us, definitely not my middle son who made his grand entrance without a sound, eyes wide open and calculating, looking around as if asking “where am I and why the hell am I here?” There is one thingContinue reading “The Blank Page”
I Cried…
My sister called me yesterday while I was on my way to the memorial service of a mutual friend. During our conversation the topic of my blog came up and of how infrequent they now were. I explained that I was just not inspired to write as often anymore, but what I should have saidContinue reading “I Cried…”
Walking The Unfamiliar Road
Have you ever gone walking in an unfamiliar neighborhood? At the start of the walk everything is new and interesting but after a few feet in and with every new twist and turn you realize you have no idea where you are, but still, you keep walking. With every turn you feel more lost, youContinue reading “Walking The Unfamiliar Road”
29 Years Above Water
Today my husband and I celebrate our 29th year wedding anniversary and I have learned that even though there are some do’s and don’ts in marriage, there are no manuals on the right or wrong way to make your marriage work. Marriage is not a “one size fits all” type of relationship and sometimes weContinue reading “29 Years Above Water”
