Tell us about a time when you felt out of place. I’ve felt out of place most of my life. I felt out of sync with my family for as long as I can remember, and eventually that imploded. I kid you not, years ago I could walk into a room, take of my coat,ContinueContinue reading “Square Peg!”

Happy Things
What details of your life could you pay more attention to? Focusing on happiness whenever and wherever you can find it changes your vibration. Looking on the bright side of life attracts you to those things. We’re not made to live in the darkness of a troubled mind, unfortunately that’s what our society focuses on.ContinueContinue reading “Happy Things”
Fulfilled?
In what ways does hard work make you feel fulfilled? When it comes to the day job I can honestly say that in 40 years I had one job I liked. But then I’m not a career person. Cleaning the house leaves me with a nice feeling, removing the stress of the dust, I feelContinueContinue reading “Fulfilled?”
The good things
What things give you energy? Nothing saps my energy more than the violence and unkindness in this world.

Thinking about our various societies just makes me want to putContinueContinue reading “The good things”

Often, when my ideas won’t fall into a semblance of order, I turn to poetry and just let the words flow onto the page. This was the result.ContinueContinue reading “Marketing Plan”
Just to help
What change, big or small, would you like your blog to make in the world? I used to suffer from terrible acute anxiety. I was born into a very messed up family, no abuse, but I’m still seeing the effects in my younger brother and until recently my cousin, to this day. I way toContinueContinue reading “Just to help”
