Blogging from my heart in Boise, Idaho
I wanted to title this post, I Picked From the Tree of Life, but right now my tree is all about Friendship. My true blue friend, Dawn, called me today and I told her that I was feeling down about a loyalty issue with someone I considered a good friend. She gave me the inspiration... Continue Reading →
I wonder if this is true, do you think that we all want the same thing? Love Peace Freedom Tolerance Compassion Understanding I could cite so many examples of what is troubling America, but instead, I prefer to take a different route, to focus on the positive. Positive action can be the catalyst to real... Continue Reading →
This is my year to travel with my dog, Zeke, visit friends, see familiar sights as well as take in newly discovered spaces. In April, we went to Salt Lake City and Park City in Utah. Right now we are in the San Juan Islands, north of Seattle, Washington. Being here is just as if... Continue Reading →

I have been a bit down in the emotional dumps as of late. It is coming up on the one year mark since my life was turned upside down. So much happened, so much has taken place since then. Eventually life goes on and so does life for everyone else. When that happens, those left... Continue Reading →
Tears not tears. Or is it both? Tears in the leaf or tears from your eyes? A broken heart seems to take on many different facets when such a life instance takes place. Oh, at the time, you always think you will never, ever be the same. But months later, low and behold, you are... Continue Reading →
Getting it right in life, what does that really mean? For me, life can be as simple and pure by just being happy and grateful. I watch others complicate their lives by thinking they have to have “itâ€? What is “it†anyway?  I must be experiencing a coming of age at this point in... Continue Reading →
As of late, I am almost mesmerized by the quality of life lessons that have crossed my path since Paul died. With the sage advice of “sleep on itâ€, I have saved myself on more than one occasion. Reactions are rarely the best route when emotions are involved. I have learned there are things in... Continue Reading →
