While reading one of my favorite blogger's posts this morning about a book called The Happiness Dare, I was inspired to take the Happiness Test. Read Kariann's post to be inspired too and then take the test here to find out what floats YOUR boat. Here's mine. I was not surprised AT ALL to find that I'm… Continue reading What Makes You Happy?
My thoughts on being a mama (at age 48, no less!):
1~ I never wanted to be a mother. God had other plans. I wouldn’t change it for anything.
2~ Being a mom has totally changed me. It will. Nothing will ever be the same. You will never be the same person you were. It’s a good thing.
3~ I became a REAL warrior the day I became a mom.

You were created for a purpose and are amazing, creative, valuable, and productive. YOU were born to shine!! Do you believe that?

Perhaps lies like you are stupid, unlovable, you will never amount to anything,… Continue reading The Lies That Bind Us
We put everyone and everything else first, at the expense of our health and spirit. Society has programmed us that way. Stop listening to the lies. You are enough already. MORE than enough. You do not have to earn your way or work to deserve love (I learned this way too late in life)… Continue reading Self-Care Is Love
The year is flying by and we are well into 2016. At this point, if we made New Year’s resolutions, about eighty percent of us will have abandoned them. That used to be me but I don’t set resolutions any more. I’ve adopted a different approach to help me focus on reaching important life… Continue reading What’s In A Word?

Can you imagine, and perhaps you really can, what it is like to experience that first, heart-exploding realization that someone actually loves you completely? Loves you without boundaries or restraint, regardless of your brokenness, emotional issues, and the truckloads of psychological stuff you carry with you? It is addictive to say the least. Your… Continue reading This is Your Brain. This is Your Brain in Love.
