Remember the Pat Benetar song “Hell is for Children”? I’m sure my Gen Xers do. There is a lot of truth to that song. I’m not saying that every child experiences a horrible childhood, but I’m willing to bet at least 75% of us did. Even those that were blessed with a more than idyllicContinue reading “Hell is for Children”

Living for Spring
We finally have some warm days ahead of us. The bleakness of the dreary days of winter are slowly waning, and I have begun to think spring. The constant drip of melting ice and snow is music to my ears. I’ve been buying seed packets while dreaming of my future gardens and flower beds. ReorganizingContinue reading “Living for Spring”
Self-Promote
I have taken some time to look back on the past year and have mentally checked off everything I can think of that I need to concentrate on and work on this year. We all fall off the treadmill to a better life every once in a while, but it is our job to getContinue reading “Self-Promote”
Christmas Memories
I have been alive for 4 months shy of 60 yrs now, and I have quite the collection of Christmases under my belt. Some magical, and some not so great. Just like all of you, I’m sure. Every year we build ourselves up to the most celebrated day in history into being unforgettable. And itContinue reading “Christmas Memories”
Intrusive Thoughts
I’d like to believe that everyone has thoughts that come and go. The thoughts that flow freely within our mind throughout the day and night, that we can’t seem to control. The out of this world, and “why would you think that?” kind of thoughts. The devil is trying to get in thoughts. We haveContinue reading “Intrusive Thoughts”

I am somewhat disturbed at some of you out there, and your definition of the word “better”, and why YOU feel it is needed. I guess the question is,Continue reading “Do Better?”
Bitches
Tina Fey once quoted, “Bitches get stuff done”. And you wanna know what? They do. You want something done…ask a “bitch” to do it. When I say “bitch”, I mean the woman’s version of a “bitch”. Because a man’s version is completely different. Here are some examples of why a man would label a womanContinue reading “Bitches”
Why Not Me?
We have all asked the question “why me?” while gazing up towards the heavens, and expecting an answer. None of us know the answer to that gnawing question. But…let’s ask a different question. Let’s ask ourselves “why not me”? We might make a little more sense of what is happening in our lives, if weContinue reading “Why Not Me?”
Broken
“We are all broken, that’s how the light gets in.” – Ernest Hemingway Everyone, is somewhat broken. We are all born whole. A perfect and pristine creation. But as soon as we enter into this world, sometimes within minutes, events start their attack on our perfectly polished porcelain, and our facade begins to crack. I’mContinue reading “Broken”
Exposure is Necessary
There are a lot of gurus on social media that have the answer for all of your problems. How to love yourself. How to land your dream job. How to start living the life you have always wanted. The list goes on and on. Lately, I am seeing a lot of posts on narcissism. IContinue reading “Exposure is Necessary”
