Thanksgiving…Always A Reason To Be Thankful

updated on 3 Comments on Thanksgiving…Always A Reason To Be Thankful

Thanksgiving….my most favorite time of the year….there are no presents…or shopping or the hustle and bustle of mall crowds…..oh no….only….family….fun….and food. We all have a tendency to forget how really important the time that we have on this earth…with each other, really is…..until it’s too late. So for that reason….for me…Thanksgiving is the holiday for me. Life…..it’s a gift all on its own and so easily taken for granted…..always put on the back burner….because we so easily forget….how precious each …

If You Knew Me…

updated on 2 Comments on If You Knew Me…

If I had to describe…..me to you…it would go something like this. I am a very caring person….full of compassion….always ready to lend a hand. I feel that going the “extra mile” to help even just one person….then it is well worth the trip. I am very nurturing…sometimes even to a fault. I believe in second chances….in new beginnings….in love at first sight. I will cry at a sappy commercial…and a movie with a sweet happy ending. If the music …

The Life We Live…The World We Live In

updated on 8 Comments on The Life We Live…The World We Live In

It happens every day….we wake up….get out of bed…..and simply start our day. It’s a repetitive daily grind….for so many. Oh…don’t get me wrong….there is a lot of living going on from the time we wake up…..get out of bed….and finally “call it a day” and go to bed. But It is….what it is……the life we live. Too Much Anger….. I have never been confrontational…..I never will be…..nor ever want to be around things or people that are confrontational…..but yet….it …

Reflections…..

updated on 4 Comments on Reflections…..

The light or soundwaves from another surface….an image given back by a reflecting surface…the production of an image by…or as if by a mirror. A fixing of the thoughts…..on something careful consideration at a thought occurring in consideration or meditation. Reflection in writing is the focus that is not merely descriptive. Reflection simply gives the brain an opportunity to take a pause amidst the chaos in life…..to untangle and even sort through observations and experiences…..you are almost giving the brain …

Exercising….Don’t Sweat It!

updated on 1 Comment on Exercising….Don’t Sweat It!

It’s an absolute fact that we are never too old to get into shape. It’s simply put that motivation is the key to getting us all up and moving around. I truly believe that the main reason most people just don’t exercise is that we end up talking ourselves out of it. I’m guilty……I’ll admit it…..but not anymore….for me anyway. The Dreaded Weight Game It really is a numbers game….it’s a fact ….. so don’t dwell on what the scale …

Until It Was Gone

updated on 9 Comments on Until It Was Gone

In life…we always….assume…..assume that things will always remain the same…..assume that everything will work out…..assume that nothing will ever change……until it was gone. It’s a natural thing that we all possess….and that would be….the ability to hope for the very best. There’s nothing wrong with that really….having a positive attitude where your life is concerned…..but remember, my friend….life does happen….and things will change. Broken promises….broken hopes and dreams and all that this involves…..we will experience it all….life is no bed …
