I Can’t Tell You Why…

The Dreaded Funk You know the dreaded “funk” that we all get into from time…to time…well that would be me right about now…or at least that is where I was for the last several weeks or so. Writing for me fell by the way-side….I just had no desire. But within that time….I’ve relied on prayer….. exercise….a lot of self-reflecting….oh and did I mention….a lot of prayers…..you bet I did….because that always brings me peace of mind……body….and soul.

Until We Meet Again…

It’s happened to us all…..when someone is no longer a part of our lives….whether it be a death…..or simply a separation….the hurt is there….and it is oh so real…that only time will heal.

We All Cry Sometimes

This is such a natural thing….it’s the shedding of tears…..and this will happen for so many reasons…..the birth of a baby…the loss of a loved one…..heartache…..heartbreak…..happiness….excitement….sadness and even anger. Crying is believed to be an outlet or a result of a burst of intense emotional sensations…such as surprise….joy or agony. For me personally…..I can tear up from a sappy movie….to a Hallmark commercial. I don’t play favorites….you might say that I wear my heart on my sleeve in that respect. …

Not Just A Pet

We have and will… always experience different types of loss in our lives. Not one is more important than the other…nor will they be without tremendous heartache… But for me….this loss was almost more than I had ever expected.

For me…growing up we had a couple of dogs…but, I remember once I went into high school…our dog lady became ill, and then …
