So, if we’ve been working on ourselves and questioning how we feel, I’m sure anger has reared its head. Letting ourselves feel the pain sucks, but we have to do it to get through to the other side (where we feel good.) Just like exercise DVDs, after the hard stuff, comes the cool-down time. I […]
As of late, I’ve been monitoring what I do with my time. There have been days when it was a blur, and I had all these things to do but found myself doing other things that, while they were necessary (like household stuff), weren’t urgent at the time. Years ago, I learned about the Eisenhower […]
My mother makes this incredible cream for her banana cream pie. It is decadent and loaded with calories and fat—the yummy kind of dessert. I made it for Mother’s Day this year. While beating the homemade whipped cream, I had to taste it, you know, for quality control. It was delicious. Didn’t think about the […]
What happens when it rains? Sure, it’s gray outside and could be cold and damp, but the positive is that it cleanses and purifies. Most people complain about the rain, but rain is a life force. It helps crops grow, and wildlife have water in arid climates. For us, here, a summer rain could help […]
I’ve been MIA since my last blog post on April 7th. I had some personal health issues to contend with, but everything is okay, and I’m back. For the last week or so, I could not come up with anything to write about. I thought I had lost my creative writing mojo. Then, my husband […]
Happiness is not a person, place, or thing. It’s a feeling. Walt Disney World is called the happiest place on earth, and when you’re there, you feel happy. Is it that Walt Disney World has some magical powers that cast happiness upon anyone who enters the coveted gates? Maybe, but I think it’s caused mainly […]
Our experiences shape our behavior. Because of that, we all live life through the lens of what those experiences taught us. Two people could grow up in the same house but have very different experiences. As a kid, I had things stolen from me. I didn’t have much, so to lose something dear to me […]
Are we in complete control of our lives? I’ve often thought of that question. My past has caused the money mindset and worthiness value I’ve had most of my life, but with a lot of work, I now realize I am in control of my life, my happniness. I know what I have to do […]
I’ve heard this question before to ask yourself, “What is your why?” The answer, I assume, tells us who we are, what is our passion, and what makes us happy? To be honest, I couldn’t answer this question. Seriously. I wrote that question down many times, hoping I’d write simple answers that would guide me […]
I learned a lot about how men think from my husband. Women and men see things differently. It’s just the way it is. So, I thought I’d have a little fun and show what we need to know about the opposite sex. Some general differences: MEN […]
