Fighting the Fickle, Feely Fingers of Fate
The Creepies I knew they were coming! I had sensed their presence lurking around the edges of my consciousness for about a week! They've been a constant companion of mine since I was a child — and I'm guessing that they've been caught hanging around your life as well from time to time! Who are they? Well, they are the […]
The Sane Kind of Crazy
Opposites Attract? This is a saying we have all heard and likely have repeated from time to time — Opposites Attract! But, let's examine it a moment. How true is this statement . . . really? Do opposites truly attract and if so, for how long? From my experience, when complete opposites come together — whether in […]
More than a Dream!
In the Beginning All dreams have a birth date — a point of beginning — a time when ideas and feelings combine with intent and potential to create a possibility ripe for exploration! Dreams are necessary! They drive innovation! They open doors of change! They challenge established protocol! They build platforms of opportunity! They alter perspective! Yes, without […]
When All Seems LOST!
LOST is More than a Television Show I must admit that I am likely one of the biggest fans of LOST! I love that show! So many subtle slashes at our collective psyches intent on pushing us to examine life from different perspectives. Oh, there are other favorite television shows of mine that do the […]
The Battle to Believe!
The Battle – A "Life Constant!" I find myself in the midst of the battle — yet again! Perhaps you are there as well. I know that we all battle with someone or someTHING each and every day — it's just that there are times the battle appears more intense. I know that is true […]
Just One Thing!
Happy New Year! Whew! The New Year is finally here! So many have written so much about just getting through 2008 in hopes of turning things around in 2009! Let’s face it, 2008 was a real booger bear of a year on all fronts! I don’t know of a person on the planet that was […]
An Exercise in Miracles!
My Silent Friend . . . The pre-dawn grayness served as the cover for my silent friend's stealthy approach as I slept. He quietly crept through the partially closed door to the bedroom and stood beside me — willing my mind to stir into conscious engagement! My friend's name you ask? Why "Miracle Max" of course! […]
The World is Crazy . . . And Sometimes so am I!
This Crazy World! The world is CRAZY! I mean just plum whacked out! I bet you didn't need me to break that bit of news now did you? Surely you see it too! Worse yet, you have likely experienced it in one form or another — perhaps even today! It truly doesn't take long for […]
A Joint Venture in Happy Making!
A Trite Phrase? Merry Christmas! Happy Hanukkah! Happy Thanksgiving! Happy New Year! Happy Kwanzaa! All of these phrases and more often find themselves wrapped in a single exclamation — Happy Holidays! Perhaps we do this in order to make sure we cover them all without inadvertently offending someone with an errant greeting given during the […]
Only Ten Seconds More
A Measure of Time! Ten Seconds — a mere one-sixth of a minute! Ten seconds does not seem like a lot of time! In fact, it seems almost impossible that anything of importance could happen in just ten seconds; however, that assumption would be wrong. Perhaps in an effort to prove to myself that events of significance […]
