You may assume you know where I’m going with this very special word, but I may disappoint you. Over the years when my husband and I were in business, I was responsible for all the sales and marketing in our firm. I attended many seminars and networking meetings, which were essential in establishing relationships and… Continue reading Women

Listen
Listening is a skill. Or is it? Maybe we need to look at it a little deeper than that. It is a skill that requires practice; however, I believe it also requires awareness. I am reminded of the well-known quote, “God gave us two ears and one mouth, so we ought to listen twice as… Continue reading Listen
Joy
What is the difference between happiness and experiecing joy? My first thought was joy is something more internal and comes from deep down inside me. Happiness is a fleeting thing - never lasting. I can think of thousands of moments that brought me happiness in my life. I can recall so many wonderful memories of… Continue reading Joy
Healing
I love reading inspirational stories about people that have been healed. I also know it’s frustrating when you pray unceasingly for healing for someone you care about or ourselves, with no noticeable results. But the earthly definition of healing and God’s definition don’t even come close. However, I do have a story…. It all started… Continue reading Healing
Awake
I’m sure you know a lot of people that have trouble sleeping. I recall listening to my friends’ stories about the many hours they lie wide awake during the dark of night.

Life is an adventure! I have been heard proclaiming this many times, while also comparing our life as a roller coaster ride. I can sense many of you are nodding in agreement. When someone recently shared that they were having a hard time convincing their spouse to downsize and sell their home, I suggested she… Continue reading Adventure
Believe
There are times in each of our lives when we all just need someone to believe in us. To believe in our value, to believe in our knowledge, or maybe just to understand and have faith in us. However, deep down in our soul, whether we recognize it or not, life is so much more… Continue reading Believe
Longing
It was the summer of 1971 and the signs of my first love were still in full bloom. And then it happened. He left for vacation with his family, travelling across the sea to England. What would I do? How was I going to even survive without him? It was a longing that I had… Continue reading Longing
Sun
I loved the sun as a child. My best friend and I, most likely in our bathing suits during the summer, would squeal with delight as we bounced back and forth from each of our little pools in our back yards or playing hopscotch and other games in our connecting alley. As I’ve matured (well… Continue reading Sun
