Through the Pain

Last week I sat with a good friend and read her Tarot cards. One of the cards she pulled was really tough. So many people are afraid of The Devil card, or the Death card... just not fully understanding the message that comes with them... the transition that Death brings, the empowerment that comes from… Continue reading Through the Pain

Kindness Matters

Today I want to invite you to consider some of these kind suggestions. From my own experience... I think my days go so much better when I've done something kind for someone, (or even for myself!) with no expectation of anything back. Many people live this way as it is... sprinkling kindness into others days… Continue reading Kindness Matters

We Have Everything, We Have Nothing

I  made a new friend this week. Pretty cool right? Several weeks ago, an existing friend handed me a business card that belonged to one of her colleagues. You need to contact her she told me. I was kind of surprised, but I took down the woman's email address and composed a draft email to… Continue reading We Have Everything, We Have Nothing

After 100 Days

In December, I wrote a blog about writing a letter to Santa Claus. Some people probably thought I was nuts, fair enough. However... I took that act pretty seriously, and more important was what I asked for for Christmas last year. There were 2 things. A new laptop... And a better relationship and understanding of… Continue reading After 100 Days

Happy Easter 🙂 I spent a lovely sunny Sunday with my family today enjoying all of the normal Easter traditions... eggs, chocolate, sweets and good company. As my husband and I drove down to my moms house today we began talking a bit about Easter and some of the pagan traditions and beliefs. I grew… Continue reading Rebirth

I’m Back

This just seemed to be an appropriate title. I'm sorry - to all who may care - that I fell off the planet over the past few weeks. Honestly, my laptop was dead and every time the inspiration to sit down and write hit me... I'd sit down and the poor thing would spit and… Continue reading I’m Back

The Pink Gown

This is an intimate story... a personal experience that just struck me as a profound example that everything truly does happen for a reason. In 2003 I went to the local bridal gown shop with my mom in late February. I had been dating my high school sweetheart for almost 2 years and we were… Continue reading The Pink Gown

Snow Day

Do you remember when you were a kid and you would pray for a snow day (or two!) anytime the weather forecast called for possible snow accumulation? Now that I'm working in a school, I've found myself - in more ways than one - reverting back to some of my childhood ways. Today my snow… Continue reading Snow Day

Always (Always!) Learning

Two weeks ago I started working a new job... a job I know is way bigger than what it appears to be. I am a Teachers Aide in charge of 19 amazing 2nd graders in a small town in upstate NY. So much has changed in my life over the past year that it is… Continue reading Always (Always!) Learning
