Why is it that we often don't realize how much a person means to us until they're taken from us. Whether it be a move, an illness, life getting in the way keeping two people apart, or death, it's not until the person is gone, the relationship as we knew it changed forever, that we… Continue reading No Regrets

This and That
Last week found me a bit under the weather, which included a trip to see my cardiologist. A reminder of how precious life is and how blessed I am to have a device that keeps my heart beating as it should. So this week I'm listing the top three things I'm grateful for. 1. Family--A… Continue reading This and That
We All Bleed the Same
You know how you can hear a song a hundred times and then on the hundred and first time you hear it, you really hear it? Or is that just me? I've listened to We All Bleed the Same by Mandisa on the radio several times a week and while it always gets my attention,… Continue reading We All Bleed the Same

I'd been waiting a long time for this event, as it always promises to be a wonderful time and sets… Continue reading Happy Thanksgiving
A Rich Abundant Life
This past weekend I was fortunate to attend a women’s retreat through my church. Typically, when I get home from work in the evenings I long to stay in my home office with my computer, or at least within the walls of my home with my dogs and my husband. On weekends, I don’t venture… Continue reading A Rich Abundant Life
The Present of Presence
The best lessons come from the most difficult trials, the most significant growth from when we’re at our lowest. When we’re filled with pride, the inevitable fall is hard. And so painful. But with humility comes peace. Yet It never ceases to amaze me that like the monster it is, pride rears its ugly head time and… Continue reading The Present of Presence
