Today, thoughts on love, on courage, on steadfastness. "The hunger for love is much more difficult to remove than the hunger for bread." ~ Mother Teresa "I learned that courage was not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it. The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who … Continue reading Friday Philosophy, Saturday Style…

My Father…
I wrote a post quite some time ago about things my father says. Yesterday I was trying to humorously quote my dad, and I completely bungled up the wording. I was saying, which comes first, "happenstance? Circumstance?" I simply couldn't get it right. So, I turned to google at that moment. I still couldn't find … Continue reading My Father…
Friday Philosophy…
Ha! Two consecutive Fridays...victory! The attempt to blog every day has been (obviously) problematic. I am starting to believe that I need to increase the number of hours in each day in order to accomplish that. Which government department do I contact for that? So, today's Friday Philosophy is just going to be a smattering … Continue reading Friday Philosophy…
Friday Philosophy…
It's Friday and I am actually on track! I've been thinking about acceptance lately: what it is, how to achieve it, how to extend acceptance in situations. We all walk our paths in this life. At times, we are side by side walking to the same place. At other times, we are at cross purposes … Continue reading Friday Philosophy…
Tuesday Thoughts…
I was reading a friend's blog last night, and she was talking about how the discipline of writing one blog post per day has really helped her productivity in other areas. You can read her blog here: http://www.funnystrange.net. It got me to thinking that I really do need to commit to a blog post each … Continue reading Tuesday Thoughts…
Under Construction…
I am in the process of switching this blog over to a domain hosting site. If I seem to vanish and you do not hear from me in about a week, I will try to reconstruct this page. 🙂 Much of it is technically challenging to me, since I am a novice. The blog name will … Continue reading Under Construction…

"There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, Than are dreamt of in your philosophy." ~ William Shakespeare I have to begin with the above quote from Hamlet, as I know I will be pushing the envelope with this post. As some of you may remember, I have been studying and practicing Reconnective Healing, … Continue reading My Meeting with Max…#ArchiveDay
Friday Philosophy… Ha!
It's time for a Friday hodgepodge of quotes... 🙂 Out of suffering have emerged the strongest souls; the most massive characters are seared with scars. ~ Khalil Gibran Failure will never overtake me if my determination to succeed is strong enough. ~ Og Mandino Real integrity is doing the right thing, knowing that nobody's going … Continue reading Friday Philosophy… Ha!
Tuesday Thoughts…
Since it is already Tuesday again, I had to change this title. I wanted the alliteration of Friday Philosophy, but mostly just wanted to check in. Life is speeding up, faster all of the time, as the family events and work schedule start to pick up here. This is definitely a good thing. Still, I … Continue reading Tuesday Thoughts…
Explanations…
I have, yet again, grown silent on here. I have a story to tell all of you, not entirely as an explanation of the silence, but just to give a snapshot of a tiny bit of my insanity. I had my regular follow up with my oncologist yesterday. For the past two weeks, I had … Continue reading Explanations…
