Of Freedom
For the first time in probably 20 years, I’m alone. I freaking am LOVING IT. And boy oh boy isn’t that new for me! I’ve been the woman who always HAS to be in some kind of relationship, who always has to have the empty inside filled by focusing on someone else. Now I don’t……

A Warm Goodbye
Tomorrow I’ll move all my things and likely never see the man I once thought was my soul mate again. My heart hurts like someone drove an icicle through it that can never melt. This too will pass. The truth is, looking at it all, there wasn’t a single moment from the one we met…

Why Do We Give Away Our Power?
How many times in the world of self-help or therapy have you heard “doing that gives away your power”? The phrase came to mind again this morning, and it got me wondering, why on earth do we do that? Why do I do that? Over and over and over again I’ve done it with a…

Aiming for the BIG Picture
As many do when faced with dark times, I turned my eye to spirituality. That took me back to a book my mom got me YEARS ago, “Playing the Matrix” by Mike Dooley. (Highly recommend!) Spoiler alert – the main goal of this book is to assist people with manifesting their dreams through the Universe…

Spirit of Christmas
This one is going to hurt, but in some ways that’s what these posts are about… facing the pain, accepting it, and hopefully letting it fade a bit. Sometimes I think the Universe is guiding the damn AI to show me my pain… this is one of those times. I was just trying to get…

What is May Not Always Be
There’s a quote from the Witcher of all things that I’ve adapted and kept for my own. In that fantasy world, the elves have been hunted abused, and killed, yet they live by the saying “What has been need not always be.” I tweaked it just a bit to help guide me from hard times……

Letting go of Dreams
I almost called this one “Letting go of Love”, but that’s just not true. Long after a relationship is over, the love remains…. sometimes even stronger than ever. I’ll never let go of the love I have for anyone who I’ve ever been with. What needs to go sometimes though is the dreams that come…

That feeling of opening your heart
And I don’t mean just to love and light and all the good stuff. I mean it ALL. To lay it all open and let it all in, the good, the bad, the ugly. When you realize that you’ve been holding parts of your heart closed for so long there’s rust on the hinges –…

My dreams are talking to me
That was my first thought waking up the other day. I’ve never woken up thinking that in my life! I had 3 different dreams that I could vividly remember, and in each one, I was doing something I’d never done before. The last one that I remember having was when I took my mom on…

Hugging the Shadows
For as long as I can remember, it has felt like my insides are a giant dark black hole. There was only pain and hurt and the frantic attempt to cover it all up so I didn’t feel it. Every love, every drink, and every person I needed to desperately like me was another patch…
