Saturday, April 14th, 2007One of the great things about being here in the world of blogging is I’ve been able to begin developing my voice to attempt to talk about some things that are important to women (and men too!). Since I’ve started, I’ve met so many great people who’ve encouraged me along the way, tagged me [...]
The Thrill of the Truth
Thursday, April 12th, 2007I love books. It would be a crime if there were no bookstores, no libraries. I’ve learned a lot from books, whether self-help, fiction, non-fiction, scripture…
I like creativity books. I find myself on the outside looking in sometimes, though, when I read many of them. But have you ever read books [...]

“Peek” or “Peak” Experiences - I’m Back!
Monday, April 2nd, 2007I’m back! I thank all of you who wished me well and were praying for me during my break this past week. It has, indeed, been an interesting week. No doubt you’ve all heard the popular idiom,
One step forward, two steps back…
Or,
Three steps forward, two steps back…
I’ve even heard of,
Two steps forward, three steps back…
I’m [...]
A Bit Exhausted
Tuesday, March 27th, 2007Yes, I am.
I’ve been thinking about a lot of things…
Creativity…
Fathers…
Daughters…
Teaching…
Writing…
I’ve had a lot to do. I’ve got papers to grade. Presentation to prepare for a meeting on Thursday afternoon. Lectures and discussions to develop…this week.
I’ve also got to spend more time with my husband.
Theodore Roethke once said,
“A mind too active is no [...]

Simply Successful Secrets
Tuesday, March 20th, 2007The best thing I love about blogging is the potential for learning from the wisdom and insight of other people. I can imagine how long it would’ve taken to “meet” the wonderful people I’ve met since I began back in November. And through this fabulous community, I’ve grown a little, if not more. [...]

Mastering Lessons, Realizing Dreams - The Alchemist
Sunday, March 18th, 2007Last week, I wrote a little about reclaiming our dreams, rediscovering those things that God has placed within our hearts to become all that He has called us to be. I read an absolutely fabulous book that, if you’re not yet convinced about your importance in this world, should drive you in the direction [...]
Dreams Deferred?
Tuesday, March 13th, 2007As I was doing some reflective work in Women Who Run With The Wolves relating to the reclamation and rediscovery of women’s souls, I discovered this image.
In my mind, this is what can happen when our dreams, goals, and aspirations are relegated to the dunghill, the trash heap, the landfill.
We were once lively dancers, brilliant [...]
