I Don’t Know About You
I don't know about you, but I am no longer in the business of talking people into loving me. I quit that a long time ago. I am also no longer in the business of expecting people to love the way I love, respect the way I respect, and honor their word the way I honor...
Universal Energy
Sometimes, I don't think I can take one more battle. Not one more blow. Not one more explosion. I stand there in the aftermath of what can only be described as the comet of universal energy doing what is necessary to take me to the other side of everything, to the...
Grateful
"I am grateful for the courage to fully feel my feelings and to keep being vulnerable through it all." I was writing this morning and that came up. For most of my life I never let myself be vulnerable. I never truly felt my feelings. I hid them in a busy schedule or...

Behavioral Patterns
Behavioral patterns will always speak louder than anything you ever have to say. It's more than the action being louder than the words... it's the collection of actions or reactions to the same or similar situations time after time that tell us what we need to know....
Celebration List
Lately I spend more time writing about the facts than anything else. In my journal, that is. I'm writing a "celebration" list of all I've accomplished for the day. Documenting facts in order to combat the voice in my head that has always done a good job of convincing...
My New Place
When I first moved into my new place I was sitting on the floor on pillows where my couch was supposed to be, looking around my living room at the small amount of furniture I had and I started to envision what I wanted this room to be for me. I visualized this desk....
from me to you
I started writing these pages long before I knew what my life really could be. Maybe I’ve written it into existence, maybe I haven’t…either way this is a collection of my life. All of the stages and everything along the way. Thank you for following along.
