I LOVE what I do. OK, I don’t love “everything” I do, but knowing that everything I do allows me to do what I love makes it ALL worth while! Today, however I am going to do a little less of what I do and practice a little more of just being… I was blessed… Read More

Rest., and It’s a practice. Today I want to share “I’m enough.” This one is a bit more personal. A bit more vulnerable…. Read More
As is typical in January, it takes a few weeks to settle into the New Year. I notice it most when I write the date… I wrote a few checks this week, which in itself is atypical in this electronic age, right!?! Are you noticing shifts? I love to “catch” signs of change and shift,… Read More
Happy New Year!!! Are you a resolution setter? A Vision Board builder? A dreamer, a planner, or a fly-by-the seat-of-your-pants-er? Or are you a nay-sayer when it comes to setting intentions and aspirations for life or your “Bucket List”? I am definitely a dreamer and a planner, but over the years I have grown more… Read More

As the hectic holidays start to take hold in our lives, there’s really only one anecdote to the chaos: Self-care. That’s right, 2019’s biggest buzzword is the thing that will help us survive (and thrive) in the face of seasonal insanity, commitment overwhelm and anticipation of what’s to come in the New Year ahead. Think about it:… Read More
What stories are you following these days? Is it something on the news or downloaded on your I-pad. I haven’t embraced the electronic book (yet?) as I am attached to the feeling of my fingers on the page and the weight of the book in my hands. It makes me feel connected to the story…. Read More
I’m curious? Do you prioritize story time in your life? And I’m not talking about attending the toddler’s event at the library. I’m wondering if you make it a regular habit to seek out and listen to stories. The newspaper is a source of stories, as is facebook and instagram. But those aren’t the stories… Read More
One thing we all love is stories. Stories connect us, teach us, transform us, set us free and LIGHT US UP! I love a good story and I love the ritual of a bedtime story. In fact, my husband has been known to read aloud to me to soothe me into sleep. My favorite stories… Read More
There is so much to celebrate as we step into the Autumn season: vegetables and fruits of our summer gardens, warm days and cool nights for Home Comings, harvest and Fall festivals and fairs in every neighborhood and community.

According to Google, there are anywhere from 40 to 16 to 5 steps or ways of letting go. I first heard this idea of measuring experiences with steps when I was a young child. Even then I knew one size didn’t fit all. My steps were not the same length as my older brother’s any… Read More
Growing up, I loved stories about heroes and especially heroines. I readily embraced the idea of taking great personal risk for the good of helping another find freedom from captivity, persecution or insignificance.
