Wisdom in everyday life

womens issues

  • It has taken me almost a week to process the events of my daughters big day. The look of happiness on her face made every minute of so-called upset totally worth it. I was also blessed to be the officiant of the wedding of my daughter and her wonderful partner Jeremy. That Sunday evening was… Read more

  • Just being

    Today I am going to take Sami’s advice and just be. Today I am going to enjoy my walk to my French class and I will not think about the wind whipping my hair in my face and across my glasses I will walk with hair in my face and just be fine about it.… Read more

  • Walking in the Rain

    Bored out of my mind I went for a walk under what looked like a sky getting ready to blow. I couldn’t help it when it is this grey and I am in a certain state of mind being outside is the only answer, rain or not. Out the door I went. I love being… Read more

  •   After pruning my family tree I am feeling pretty free today. There were some heavy boughs that had to go, limbs that have been weighing me down and making my butt look big, I hate that!  Well I am changing my tune, singing a new song and really loudly. I am certainly not buying… Read more

  • Pruning the family tree

      I was with my family of ancestry this weekend and I found myself face to face with what has been the base of my family tree. These people were the seed carriers for my DNA line and the seed distributors for my beliefs. My family tree didn’t look so good. Family is a tricky… Read more

  • I, the self-appointed queen of my world is traveling to Florida this weekend to be among my people. I will walk amongst those who I have not seen in many years. People who knew when and do not know me now. Is that a queenly thing? Am I not suppose to keep it all a… Read more
