A while back I posted on this topic and this morning it was brought to my attention again. While I was on my morning run, enjoying some moments strung together without rain or snow, I met up with an older couple, each with their own garbage bag, picking up trash along the river trail. The river trail… Continue reading The Power of Words

April (Word) Showers
I've temporarily changed the old saying, April Showers bring May flowers, to April Showers Bring Lots of Writing Hours. Last April I participated in the A to Z Blogging Challenge, and this year I've decided to head to Camp for the month of April. Camp NaNoWriMo. I will still be reading the blog posts of those participating in the challenge,… Continue reading April (Word) Showers
The Late, GREAT Robin Williams
My heart is absolutely shattered at the loss of this talented man. In fact, when I heard the news my breath caught and my heart stopped for just a moment. Today I'd like to honor him by sharing some powerful words he shared with us. "No matter what people tell you, words and ideas can change… Continue reading The Late, GREAT Robin Williams
Powerful Words
In the Parade Magazine that comes tucked inside my newspaper, there was an article on how to make a marriage last. A couple who had been married for twenty years had words of advice that not only applies for marriage, but for all relationships, and I thought it so profound that I wanted to mention it here.… Continue reading Powerful Words

While I don't believe, for the most part, that people intend to be hurtful, that doesn't change the fact that words can sting the heck… Continue reading The Power of Words

The same answer to all three people resulted in the same response from all three. Clearly these… Continue reading Vacation Highlight

Writing on the Wall After reading a blog post some time back asking how far back our love of writing went, I began thinking about when my love of words began, and discovered it was the writing on the wall. Literally. Much to my mother and father's dismay, I began experimenting with writing on our living room… Continue reading “W” is for…
“Q” is for…
I love quotes! They contain so much wisdom, motivation and inspiration in so few words. They prove that less is often better when it comes to words, and that those few words can pack a powerful punch. My ten favorite are: 10.) “The way to happiness: Keep your heart free from hate, your mind from… Continue reading “Q” is for…
“H” is for…
It's my favorite place in the entire world. But more than a place, I think of it as a state of being. Home is where I am when I have my kids and grandkids with me, whether it's at my house or elsewhere. Home is where I am when I'm on a nature walk, feeling… Continue reading “H” is for…
