I am certainly no marriage expert but I do have parents who met when they were 12 so I had two great role models growing up. Does that make my odds better at having a successful marriage? Define successful? I personally think the constitution of marriage needs to bend slightly with the times. (ie same [...]

When was the last time you took a chance? Chance; the possibility of something happening. Not gamble; play games of chance for money. Not Risk; a situation involving exposure to danger. I mean a chance in business, friendship or with the opposite sex, that if taken could change everything. We take chances with choices every [...]

I was talking to a male friend of mine the other night about a number of different topics and something he said stayed with me. “Failure for me is not an option”. He doesn’t see anything ending in failure. He doesn’t allow himself to even go there visually. What a great attitude to have. There [...]

When will we learn to let go of our past? Now is so much more important. Why is history so important to some of us? Does it keep us in our comfort zone? I think so. Years ago a relationship I thought I’d let go of kept seeping back into my life. Just as I [...]

Relationships show us that every human being is wired differently! Sometimes REALLY differently. I’ve been blessed with relationships in my past; some have taught me what I wanted and others have taught me what I don’t…the basic point of having one in my opinion. Every now and then you get one that changes the way you [...]

Each month we take turns creating a new header with a word of choice. I chose Intimacy this month so today I will write about just that! I met a man recently who has challenged me in more ways than one. I couldn’t help but be drawn to him because of the way he intrigued me [...]

Have you ever noticed when somethings on your mind its all you seem to focus on? If you’re thinking about buying a motorcycle for example, they appear every where you look. If you’re trying to make babies, you see nothing but cute little people everywhere! Ya I know, two very different examples, but hey…different is [...]

Would your man catch a grenade for ya…throw his hand on a blade for ya…jump in front of a train for ya…take a bullet straight through his brain for ya…do anything for ya? These lyrics remind us how powerful love can be. Most people don’t experience this kind of passion in their love, and as [...]

I guess I better start this with “my relationship with my husband is better than ever” just in case some of you jump to conclusions and then don’t continue reading. I don’t know if it is something that happens to more women our age or maybe it’s always been happening and I had just been [...]

A couple of friends have asked me about the meaning behind the header for the month of March – Finding Lyrical Beauty in…HISTORY. First off, I love the word ‘history’. To me it’s sexy, smart and mysterious. OK, put it this way, when you hear two people described as having history, aren’t you intrigued? Were [...]

“I believe in long, slow, deep, wet kisses that last three days” quote, Kevin Costner’s character from the movie ‘Bull Durham’. A classic line. You know what they say, those who are talking about it aren’t doing it! But are those who are doing it, doing it well? Kissing…just let your mind wander for a [...]

While at the school talent show last week I noticed something that I couldn’t stop thinking about. This usually means a post is in the air. It seemed to me that most of the girls who performed did it to songs that were directed towards boys in such a way that they were pining for [...]
