Always Starting…The Art of Never Giving Up
Journal of a journey through life, true love and lessons learned along the way.
It has admittedly been weeks since I wrote last. A habit, hobby, outlet that is supposed to be exercised daily. It is not that I did not want to write. It is not that there isn't anything to write. It is that I could not...trapped like a hostage in the labyrinth that is my mind... Continue Reading →
I can probably count on one hand how many times in my life I have uttered the word "content". It is not part of my vocabulary to note that "I am content" with anything or anyone. As you can imagine this makes it hard for those people that are committed to me and I to... Continue Reading →
An interesting response came the other night from Gary. I was sitting on the couch watching TV and working on my laptop.

This is the latest statement that I hear myself saying more often than not. Let's explore my laundry list of all of the things "I don't want to..." lately: Get up at 5:00 am; this is the golden hour as no one else is up so it is the perfect time to exercise, write, catch-up... Continue Reading →
My mom was a career woman or so I liked to think she was; it never seemed like a job. She wore beautiful dresses and suits and went to an office every day.
