My Thing
Sometimes when I read my favorite blogs (see sidebar for who I read!) I feel like giving up on this. The authors I scroll through daily appear to ride on this peaceful wave of words that exude calm realizations and conquering of problems, while I feel as if I am hacking through thick infestations of vines with a rusty hatchet, spitting fire of frustration the entire way.
Anger birthed from...

Free to Be Lazy
This weekend I am tired.
I didn't expect to be this tired.
I expected never-ending energy through next week and then maybe a little fatigue. But no, after an awesome half-day trip to Wisconsin Dells Thursday I am tired.
Quite a few plans were in store for my four-day weekend: hanging with a good friend Friday (done), laundry and cleaning the god-awful dirty car (uh, half-done),...

What Story is in Your Heart Today?
What story is in your heart today?
Whatever it is, speak it, act it out, share it, and live it. Not only live it, but embrace that story good or bad, chosen or not, because whatever kind of tale it is, it's yours.
I started writing this post about learning to let go of control, but I read so much of that on a daily basis that I don't really want to write about it.
Right now I want to...

The Fear of Trying
Sometimes I worry that I'm not meant to do this... write or reach out to people like you about loving yourself.
I feel as though I have so much in my heart and soul that I want to type up and post to this space, this little link that only reaches a few, but I can't always pull all these feelings and ideas apart to actually write. Only a few come through my fingers and connect with the letters...

This Week
I am taking this week slow and easy.
I am sleeping in a little bit later but still rising early enough to not feel rushed through the day.
I move slow through the morning: from bed to couch to breakfast to bathroom to couch.
I am eating what sounds delicious, what makes my body...

Battle of the People-Pleaser
Decisions are tough.
Knowing what you need is tough.
So, deciding what's best for you in any situation is fricken hard.
I've never defined myself a "people pleaser." In fact, that description makes me scrunch my nose and mouth and avoid eye-contact with those two words at once. People-pleasers have always driven me mad as I have found myself screaming at friend after friend, "Don't...

Forced to Let Go
The beginning of June
was a month of learning that I’m just starting to absorb and now write about
a month later. The lessons were painful but needed, and the most vivid was on
letting go.
Let me tell you, I have

long-time friendship...
