The other day I blogged “Out With The Old And In With The New”. I said you don’t have to feel guilty for choosing your holiday celebration even if you disappoint others. I said guilt is a time-waster. I mentioned it was another blog. I think the word “guilt” and the word “shame” get misconstruedContinue reading “Guilt vs Shame”

Out With The Old, In With The New
Before Christmas, I had this conversation with 2 tribe members. They voiced their disappointment with their holiday plans or lack of one should I say. They expressed how they wish it was different. I completely understood what they were saying, I too wish my Christmas was different. I wished my son’s father was still hereContinue reading “Out With The Old, In With The New”
Downsizing in 2022
When I left Nashville in 2014, I left behind everything except my clothes, toiletries, kitchen essentials, 1 heirloom, and 1 television. I downsized from a 4 bedroom house to a 2 bedroom apartment. I had never been so tired of stuff in my life. I had stuff that I never used, furniture I never satContinue reading “Downsizing in 2022”
Be Still And Know
I hope everyone had a Merry Christmas which means you were blessed. You woke up, had a roof over your head and food on your table. It doesn’t mean how our over-commercialized society presents it. More gifts and decorations don’t equate to being merrier. Having gifts within and recognizing your blessings is the greatest giftContinue reading “Be Still And Know”
Growth
Day 4 of thinking about my vision board. Growth sounds great because we all want to grow and be better but it’s not easy to grow. Growth means outgrowing relationships with people we don’t want to let go of and letting go of old versions of ourselves. Not so easy! Much like the security blanket,Continue reading “Growth”
Peace Is My Priority
Day 3 of thinking about and working on my vision board. My soul craves peace. Peace becomes a priority after childhood traumas, narcissists relationships, stress that comes with life including the new way of life, I want to draw people that share the same goal. People I just want to hug when I meet them.Continue reading “Peace Is My Priority”
Acceptance
Day 2 of working on my vision board and my goals for 2022. I think one of the biggest challenges for me is acceptance. It’s a broad subject but I’m taking slices of it and digesting it slowly. I find it easier to accept people and situations as they are than to accept I didContinue reading “Acceptance”
Visions & Dreams
I started doing vision boards over a decade ago. My shrink got me doing it so I could focus on my dreams daily. Through the years my dreams and priorities have changed. I usually have at least a few things that represent tangible, material things like a vehicle. This year my visions are about me.Continue reading “Visions & Dreams”
The Reason For The Season
Here’s our reminder of why we have a day called Christmas. I believe many get caught up in the commercialization and try to do bigger and better rather than against our neighbors or ourselves from the previous years. We fall into the trap of marketing and corporate greed trying to buy things the majority ofContinue reading “The Reason For The Season”
It’s Not What You Are Running To But What You Are Running From
I wanna talk about desperate, bottom of the bottom, sick and tired, tired and sick, miserable, DONE. I have said and felt all of those words. I have said I am so miserable, I will eat out of a dumpster before I continue this situation, I have said God I will do whatever just takeContinue reading “It’s Not What You Are Running To But What You Are Running From”
