This past week, was a week filled with sadness, fear, pride and one I’m not so proud of ego. My daughter turned 16 and her dad surprised us both with a car for her. Although I’m super grateful, I’m also feeling a little lost with this new independence for her. I won’t call it empty…

A Little Grace
”People make time for what they want” or “People treat you the way they feel about you”. Here I am with an unpopular stance… I don’t agree with either of these sentiments.

That Person
A person that has such a richness in their soul that your soul feeds off it like a damn buffet that even though you are full – you keep going back A person that at times can feel like a massage to your soul, your heart and even deeper than a massage with a happy…
