A few years ago, I set out to change my image. To build my resume. To set myself up for success. And it worked. I support myself, I have a good job with even better people, [insert more seemingly bragging here]. Somewhere along the way, though, between the schedules, the strategy, the huge dreams andContinue reading “Picture”

Your every day – it matters
I believe it is now time to make moves. Your beliefs are valid. Your opinions are your own. Your voice matters. What you do every day, it matters. I write this from a perspective of someone unable to quit everything to go volunteer or support an important cause. I write this from the perspective thatContinue reading “Your every day – it matters”
What do I do?
It’s important to see the good that can come of different events. Otherwise, we would live in a constant state of sadness, confusion, and grief over things that happen all over the world, every day. This happens to me often, on a much smaller scale. I push myself too far, I wait until I am tooContinue reading “What do I do?”
Politics and Work, Work and Politics
Amid elections, politics, different times of opinions and outcomes – it is easy to get caught up. Caught up, mostly, with your own feelings…feelings that are then fueled by others with similar (or better yet, differing) opinions. And this is normal. We have opinions, we cast votes, we choose different sides. And we should. ThatContinue reading “Politics and Work, Work and Politics”
sad
I am sad today. I am sad today, and I am not talking about the results. I am sad today, and I am not talking about a number of votes. I am sad today, because I am sad for you. I am sad for us. I am sad that the only opinions I see, areContinue reading “sad”

Because it’s going to suck for awhile
I often write of being lost, not knowing what I’m doing, trusting the process…you get it. And then sometimes I write about things like “the wow moment” or moments when I find what I am looking for, where I realize that everything has happened a certain way for a reason. And then it repeats. It’sContinue reading “Because it’s going to suck for awhile”
heh
I don’t really know what I’m going to ramble about today, but lately I haven’t been able to put pen to paper that often (or should I say fingertips to keyboard), so here I am. I’m not generally one to force myself to write, rather, I write when I learn a lesson, get inspired, orContinue reading “heh”
