Hi! Welcome to the not so fancy blog. I don't keep it up. I only write when I feel like I have something to say.

If you came here to read some of my stories or things I have learned from my childhood those posts start at the beginning.

I have not labeled my posts because...I'm not that fancy ;)

If you have questions please don't hesitate to ask.

Earlier this week I put some questions on my bathroom mirror and on my desk to think about: What do I want to do? Who do I want to be? What do I want to achieve? Who do I want to become? These questions were presented in that podcast I shared I was listening to on Monday.  "Achieving A Limitless Mind, Feat. Jim Kwik, with Joel Marion – BTI 17" I have and I haven't yet been able to answer all of them and this morning I have some new questions for myself. Who do I believe I am? How do I hold myself back? What limitations do I impose on myself? One of my favorite, and yes! I mean favorite!! aspects of life is that we have the opportunity to continually grow, improve, redefine and refine ourselves.  Who I believed I was, who I saw myself as even 6 months ago has changed.  Our self imposed limitations change and they must be addressed.  Our believe system about who we are needs to constant evaluation and adjustment.  L...

Dear You, Thank you for reading my blog. I must confess I am really new to this blog thing, so forgive me for not having a fancy background and other internet fancy like things. I am sure you will miss the pop up ads that will not be coming up on my blog ;) I write. But I usually write to think and to process my emotions. I tell stories when I write because I am originally from Longview Texas and we are storytellers. Front porch storytellers. I found out this morning that a gal from Texas that I have never personally met read my blog and connected with what I wrote. I am still processing my feelings about that. I never expected it to reach more than the five people who read anything I post on Facebox (my affectionate term for what we all know it really is). Yesterday morning I woke up earlier than I ever do. I quite literally felt a fire burning within me. What I wrote about my mom isn't new, but yesterday I shared it for the first time. Publicly. I know I am not alone in...

One of the hardest things for me to understand, process or even accept in life was the insincere efforts made to comfort me. Maybe they could be called placating or patronizing. Whatever it was or is I hate. Some of my least favorite sayings are: "everyone is doing their best" (lie) "we all go through hard times" (dismissal of accountability) "maybe she/he didn't mean it" (undermining of feelings) "no one is perfect" (rationalization). As a child I would tell people what was happening in my home and I would always be fed one of these winners or something along those lines. "Everyone is doing their best". This is a flat out lie. People are rarely doing their best. We do what is comfortable. Familiar. Very few humans are doing their best. Just think of where we would all be as a human race if people were truly doing their best. We justify. We rationalize. We procrastinate. We avoid. We lie. We bury emotions and pretend to have...
