Giving Myself The Gift of Creativity

Due to some recent schedule juggling, it seems that I only have an hour to work on this week’s blog. I usually spend an entire afternoon composing these posts so, today, instead of trying to find more time to write this week, I will rise to the challenge and trust that whatever I write in this hour will be “enough”. Now that I think about it, that is actually a …

Traveling Light: Parts 1 & 2

As the summer comes to a close, I’m doing one of my favorite things…sitting down to write in a cozy cafe and reflecting on the abundance of memorable moments from the past two months. I’ve been to so many places, had numerous adventures and gained so much insight that it is hard to decide what to choose for the purposes of this article. But, as often happens when I step …

Seven Years Later…Conclusion (Part Six)

I won’t go into the gory details of my separation and divorce because telling that story only gives energy to thoughts and emotions that no longer serve me. What I will say is that I did, eventually, reunite with my soul-mate and we were together for several years. Only recently have I realized that our relationship, while incredibly satisfying to me in so many ways, was not a committed partnership. …
