I’m a Warrior, Not A Worrier!

Today my friend's situation reminded me of the need for this card. There are a bunch of things pressing in on me and my brain is in a tizzy (southern expression for going crazy).    *I'm trying to get a seat belt installed before heading south. I had to cut it because my son became… Continue reading I’m a Warrior, Not A Worrier!

Be The Light (Guest Post)

Today I am sharing with you Vanessa's post on At The Picket Fence. She wrote about how we are called to be the light in this increasingly dark world. It resonated with me, perhaps because I believe my purpose is to shine my light as I speak life and truth in my writing and speaking, and even… Continue reading Be The Light (Guest Post)

The Lies That Bind Us

  You were created for a purpose and are amazing, creative, valuable, and productive. YOU were born to shine!! Do you believe that? Or do you struggle to believe that you were born to shine because instead you believe lies about yourself? Perhaps lies like you are stupid, unlovable, you will never amount to anything,… Continue reading The Lies That Bind Us

I Hope You Blew It!

I hope you have messed up really big. At least once in your life. Better yet, a whole bunch of messes. Mistakes. Wrong choices. Foot-in-your-mouth embarrassment and falling down onstage kinds of messing up. And please don’t think I’m mean, but I really hope that life has given you lemons. And disappointments. And some really… Continue reading I Hope You Blew It!

What’s In A Word?

  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?

First You Must Trust Yourself

First you must trust yourself...if you can't, you may put too much weight on what others think or say.    Everything you need is inside you. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise. You are enough. You are capable. You are fabulous. Your own mind and heart know. Truly. Just take the time to see and… Continue reading First You Must Trust Yourself

Why NOT Me?

You should never feel as if you are insignificant and undeserving. Dream that dream. Set those goals before you. Because, why shouldn't you reach them? You, as much as anyone you admire, deserve the chance to do what your heart desires. Yep, sometimes it takes a long time. And it's really, really tough. But that… Continue reading Why NOT Me?

Invisible Illness Week

To participate in Invisible Illness Week, my friend, Shai Ford, has written openly, emotionally, and with great vulnerability about what it is like to live with not one, but two, illnesses that are "invisible" to people, meaning their symptoms are not easily seen. I am sharing her post today because we need to be more… Continue reading Invisible Illness Week
