Life is full of twists and turns as we all know. But how often do we see the path before it curves at our feet? Have you ever wondered what it would be like if we all could see the path up ahead? Some would say, if only they knew things would turn out this…

Can One Person Change the World?
Intriguing question, isn’t it? Can one person change the world? I’m not talking about some mythic or God-like being or fiction character, I mean one, an everyday person such as you or me, make a significant difference in this massive, ever-changing world we live in? I have thought long and hard about this question lately….
Anxiety vs Forgivness: Which Do You Choose?
Recently, I had a long conversation with someone who has been harboring a lot of anxiety over past regrets. Haven’t we all felt that way before? Wishing we made a different choice, or perhaps we regretted how we reacted to something? Yet, listening to this person, I couldn’t help feeling like I wanted to take…
It’s a Fresh, New Year!
Wow! It’s 2017! Happy New Year everyone! Where does the time go? I often find myself asking this question. I think the answer is right in front of me, yet I have been too busy or distracted to notice. Life is happening this very second and what am I doing with it? Do you remember…

My Lesson in Better Choices
I love this time of year. The crisp cool air, the scarves and hot cocoa, and let’s not forget the Earths last colorful hurrah before winter begins. As color starts exploding all around us, I can’t help but catch myself gazing off into the distance at it. What a beautiful world we have! How often…
Looking Behind the Curtain
Why are we so afraid to look behind the curtain? Sometimes facing the truth about ourselves is harder than facing the truth about others or other circumstances. While no one likes to admit their flaws or if they might possibly be wrong about something, I see often in my own life and in others around…
Are We Surviving Life, Or Living It?
Everyone knows this is a tough world and society we live in at times. We all know it can be difficult to survive with only one person’s income. We also know how challenging it can be to navigate through life. Lately, I have had many of these kinds of thoughts. Among them, where can we…
