Are you living the life you were intended to live? Do you feel that your life is running along as it’s supposed to? Are you living your truth? Many people these days are living a lie in one way or another. Lately, it seems, we need to tiptoe around everyone else’s feelings. If we are…
Self-Blame Is Quicksand
I have friends who have been or are still in prison. Unfortunately, upon being incarcerated, they lost friends and family. While I do not condone the actions they were locked up for, I still consider them important to me. For this reason, I write letters to bring them help and comfort. One of the common…
It’s The Little Things
Twice within the same week, while talking to different friends, there was a discussion on the importance of little things. It’s easy to take the little things in our lives for granted because they aren’t eye-opening. They don’t set the world on fire or make someone sit up and take notice. Little things are important…

You were staring directly into my eyes when I told you about my latest writing project. Later, when I asked you a question about it, you looked at me as if I had grown a second nose on my face. Didn’t you listen? As each year passes by, life seems to grow more hectic. We…

The Write Empath 2018 Review
As 2018 draws to a close, it’s time to review the past twelve months. My life changed drastically in many different ways. Some of these changes have been reflected here in the many posts I’ve published. Usually, I don’t know what I’m going to write about before I settle in to write my posts. Often…
Crazy Christmas Clutter?
A few days past Christmas and, the house is a disaster. The tree is still standing but a bit worse for wear. All through the house toys clutter the carpets. Leftovers pack the refrigerator. Thoughts of cleaning overwhelm you. There can be a letdown when Christmas ends. It’s like the hangover after a great night…
