Honesty
A Myriad Of Thoughts
I begin this day by wishing my best friend Marion the happiest of birthdays. Not a lot of people can say they are a true friend of mine, but you can say "This is my best friend of 20 years." There are marriages that don't last nearly as long. We're the lucky ones, and sometimes … Continue reading A Myriad Of Thoughts
Life Can Be Very Difficult At Times
"The truth is that life can be very difficult at times. There can be a lot of pressure to keep it all together, to be smart and beautiful, to be so good and perfect. But sometimes we don't have it together at all. Sometimes we make mistakes. Sometimes we don't feel good or look our … Continue reading Life Can Be Very Difficult At Times
Words
I haven't been quiet intentionally, I've been quiet because I've been sick for the majority of the month we have recently said goodbye to until 2017. February didn't exactly begin with a sense of calm, either. I've had maybe one or two migraine-free days over the past month or so, and the migraines themselves have … Continue reading Words
All Beautiful Things

Your wounds and healing are a part of your history; a … Continue reading All Beautiful Things
Rules Of The Week
I hope everyone had a prosperous, happy week and weekend. Me? Not so much. I've been plagued by migraines at a near non-stop pace.

The cold has forced its way … Continue reading Rules Of The Week
Friday: The Dark Artifice
I woke up far too early this morning to a dark, grey day. Normally that wouldn't bother me (it rarely does), but it's the fact that the weekend is hanging over my head...the artifice of it darkening my mood. Under normal circumstances the weekend is a dear friend I welcome with open arms, but it … Continue reading Friday: The Dark Artifice
I’ve Got Nothing!
I wish I had a dose of wisdom to bestow upon you today, but I don't. I wish I had something to give that somehow made even just one person's day brighter or easier, but I've got nothing. I am all out of poignancy at the moment. 😦 The thought is disheartening, to say the … Continue reading I’ve Got Nothing!
Friends…
"Friends...rest assured some will not jive with who you are and what you have to say. Some will misunderstand you, while others may understand you perfectly well and simply not like you, for whatever reason. Please remember that all of this has nothing to do with you, not really. We can never own another person's … Continue reading Friends…
