Battles When I started this blog, I told you (my readers) that it would be personal and honest. I’ve tried to stay true to that throughout this endeavor, and I plan to continue. Each of our lives is unique; we all face different triumphs and struggles, but that is what makes living so special. We…
Make Time In my line of work, I frequently interact with an older generation of people. Many of them are retired and in their Golden Years era. However, I get somewhat disheartened when they tell me that the Golden Years, in fact, aren’t so golden. I even had one gentleman tell me, “The only thing…

Clear the Fog Have you ever found yourself in a slump when you didn’t feel like yourself and even doing the simplest of things left you feeling depleted? Have you ever lost interest in activities you enjoy and just can’t seem to make yourself get up and do the things you know you should be…
A Deep Love Father’s Day is today, so if you’re blessed as I am with a living and loving father, father figure, or father of your child(ren), I hope you take the time to let him know how much you love and appreciate him. I have always been a daddy’s girl. I love my mom…
False Ideals These days, when I look in the mirror, I notice more and more fine lines around my mouth and eyes. My husband and I look back at old pictures and we’re amazed at our baby faces. I also notice certain areas of my body where extra weight stubbornly clings to, which is distressing.…
