Sometimes you never hear the “help me” from people who need it. It doesn’t come out in words, but rather in appearance and demeanor … You don’t recognize her. You know her, but she doesn’t look like the woman you remember. Her clothes are ill-fitting and faded. She never would have left the house looking…

Protect Your Peace!
Empaths, protect your peace! People love to talk to empaths. They pour out their struggles, sufferings, pain, and loneliness. Strangers come to you on the street and feel comfortable telling you what’s bothering them. Because it’s easy to sponge their emotions, it’s imperative that you learn to protect your peace. If you are like me,…
Receiving Constructive Criticism Is A Gift
It doesn’t seem like it some days, but receiving constructive criticism from others is a gift. Now, let me clarify this right from the start –there’s a difference between being unjustly criticized and constructive criticism. Constructive criticism helps us grow into a better person. If a friend feels comfortable enough to give you negative feedback,…
As We Reflect on 2024 …
At the end of a year, many of us reflect on the passing year. In a couple of days, we will be switching our calendars to a new year. 2024 will be behind us. I keep a daily log which I can peruse at the close of December. It shows the highlights of each day…
My Hallway of Memories
I have a work room upstairs where I write, paint, dream and store tidbits of memories from my life. Cleaning the room is like walking down a hallway of memories. I’m 54 years old and there are decades of little tidbits I’ve collected. And since I’ve been a writer my whole life, there are many…
Conversations Are A Two Lane Road
Conversations are a two lane road. You encounter thoughts coming at you and you expel your own thoughts by way of words and sentences. Unfortunately, lately it seems that conversations are expected to be a one-way street. We want to share our thoughts and get our points across, but we aren’t open to listening to…
Spreading Peace from Hatred?

Facebook Groups For Adoption And Rehoming Are SCAMS
By now if you’ve been on Facebook for any length of time you’ve seen links to dog groups for adoption or rehoming. Or, if they weren’t groups for dogs they may have been groups dedicated to some other animal. THESE ARE RUN BY SCAMMERS. I have tried numerous times to post an educational post about…
Time – Where Have You Gone?
I feel that I am obsessed with the concept of time this year. Scientifically, it is measured with a watch, and separated into labeled sections such as hours or days. But, it feels relatively different to each person and situation without a timepiece. Time lost can never be replaced. You may be able to repeat…
