Though I know that true acknowledgment comes from within, it does feel nice to get positive affirmation from outside sources on occasion. There have been times when I have questioned if all of my work the past few years even mattered. I’m glad to say it has touched at least a few people. :) Recently, … Continue reading »

I see my path, but I don’t know where it leads. Not knowing where I am going is what inspires me to travel it. ~ Rosalia De Castro
This was my journal entry this morning. I kind of liked it… so now I am sharing. Have a sparkle filled day! My prayer for you dear traveler is to let go of all preconceived notions of who you were, who you should be and who you will be. My greatest wish for you … Continue reading »
The person I used to know as me.
I bought my plane ticket to Minnesota this morning. Wow. I’m really doing this. I’m so excited…but filled with nostalgia and a deep sense of gratitude for every person and situation which has colored my world for the last several years. If someone told the person I used to know as me that I would … Continue reading »
The first step toward success is taken when you refuse to be a captive of the environment in which you first find yourself. – Mark Caine
Last week I had to suspend my gym membership due to lack of funds. It was sort of a big deal, because that is how I shower each day. It’s been an interesting few days since the suspension as I try to navigate a new sort of routine fit for the rock star that I … Continue reading »

I don’t know who you are, but THANK YOU!
I haven’t gone to the post office in I don’t know how long now. I think it’s been at least six weeks or maybe since before Christmas. I’ve been avoiding the Post Office because I know there are bills that I cannot pay waiting in my teeny tiny slot for correspondence with the “official/corporate” world. … Continue reading »
May you all give and receive just as easily as you breathe!
“I must be giving a lot” is what I thought to myself after a series of random kind gestures came flowing my way over a span of about fifteen minutes. Let me tell you a little about these gestures: A friend just approached me and asked how I was doing, meaning that she knows I’m … Continue reading »
The perfect hug.
I have been laying on a couch all night nursing my excruciating headache sort of wishing for a good hug and a comfy bed to sleep it off in. Just when I thought my head would spontaneously combust, my friend sent an e mail which helped to cure my pain. (I will post his e mail … Continue reading »
Give generously in all ways for always.
There is a homeless (I think) woman whom I walk past most everyday on my way to the gym. I don’t know her age. I don’t know her story. I don’t even know her name. All I know is that she’s not afraid to ask for things be it money or objects that one is … Continue reading »
Why does God hate my love life?
A few years ago, I had a small advice column for the college I attended in Oregon. I was just going through some old files on my computer and uncovered about 4 of the articles. I kind of like them, so for the next few days I will post them. I hope you enjoy … Continue reading »
