Positivity
It’s October 1, 2019. Yesterday, I finally closed another chapter in my life. I moved out of the home we had for the last three years. The home my ex-husband rented about 7 months before he passed away. I made a promise to my two youngest kids to stay in the house until they graduated … Continue reading Positivity
True Blue – Closing a chapter.
June 16, 2019 I’m 48 years old. That’s weird for me to say and hear. When I was a kid, I didn’t believe that I would still be alive in the year 2020. Now here it is 2019 and in less than 6 months it will be 2020. So many changes and pain to have … Continue reading True Blue – Closing a chapter.

I look back at the last 4 years and still feel some of … Continue reading Finding Serenity
Tears in the Dark by Suzanne Allen
That bewitching hour arrives once more. Darkness surrounds. Closed windows and doors. Lying awake, staring into the black. Thoughts tumbling over and over. Stress and anxiety start to react. Peace splintered once more. Nothing new to the mind. Been here before. Words carelessly are thrown about. What is it this time? Self-sabotage or self-doubt?

A moment away…
