“Open your arms to change, but don’t let go of your values.” Dalai Lama I am not talking about the change of life. I am not there yet but I sense I will sail right through it with flying colours when it does come for me. I greet most change with “I’ve been expecting you.” Change [...]

I wrote a post last week called Exploring All Your Senses. I mentioned that sometimes we meet or know people who see us for who we truly are and it’s those individuals who make us strive to be better people. They keep us in check. They are not afraid to call us on things we [...]

At the end of each year I take time to look back and then move forward. There are always lessons learned, dots to connect and thoughts to purge. I savour moments with friends who have been in my life for a long time. (happy sigh) I think of those I’ve just met and how each person who [...]

This is going to be one of the hardest posts I’ve ever had to write. The decisions I make today will affect me for the rest of the year. My reputation is at stake. My lifestyle is at stake. My closet and my sanity are at stake. As I hinted several weeks ago, I felt [...]

We spend much of our youth searching for someone to spend the rest of our lives with, not realizing that it means a VERY long time. That’s right THE SAME MAN FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE!! That’s obviously a joke. My Mom and Dad have known one another since they were twelve so I [...]
