How many moments a week, or even in a day sometimes, does someone or something make you want to explode and run out of the room screaming? Depending on where you work or who you live with, this could be more often than you’d like, or you could be lucky and those moments are rare. [...]

A great big world out there…for me
Posted in Uncategorized, tagged breakups, changes, life, relationships, single on August 6, 2010 | 1 Comment »
It’s been one month since I made a life-altering decision — to end my 4-year relationship with my boyfriend. Those of you who read this know that I’m pretty transparent about my life, but in this instance, I want to keep things relatively brief as it pertains to “what happened.” Bottom line: we were at [...]

There are hundreds of books and audio tapes and sermons and suggestions out there on how to get what you really want…how to succeed in business…how to get the love you want, etc. Pretty much anything you want or need, there is something out there for you on how to get there. Except maybe more [...]
Weddings, Weeding, & Wonderings

This is the year. The year when all my friends are getting engaged, married, having kids, moving to new cities, starting new jobs, starting new lives. This is the year when a lot of things change. Two weekends ago, I was in the wedding of one of my best friends. I hadn’t yet met her [...]
This is a test

Just when you think you have it all figured out, it hits you upside the head: It’s not just my boyfriend that’s worried about the future – it’s me, too. Me, who I thought was ready for the next big thing, ready to say all my fears were behind me, ready to move forward. And [...]
How to get what we really want
Posted in Uncategorized, tagged choices, decisions, life, planning on April 18, 2010 | Leave a Comment »
We are constantly being presented by choices, some clearer than others. Some will affect us for about five minutes, like which flavor of ice cream to get, or taking the stairs instead of the elevator. Others leave a lasting impact, like moving, getting married, having kids or getting a dog, or starting a new job. [...]
How do we know what’s “best” for us?
Posted in Uncategorized, tagged change, decisions, life on February 21, 2010 | Leave a Comment »
When it comes time to make life-altering decisions, sometimes, the facts are clear, the options are A or B, 1 or 2, this or that. The decision itself may not be easy, but at least all the data is there, and it’s just making that final choice. But what about when everything isn’t clear? What [...]
What do you want to do?
Posted in Uncategorized, tagged career, choices, decisions, growing up, life, love on December 2, 2009 | 1 Comment »
As a kid, we were endlessly asked by parents, teachers, friends and grandma what we wanted to be when we grew up. Back then, it was easy: a firefighter! a ballerina! In my case, a writer. As we grew older, the question still lingered, but the answer wasn’t always so simple. The one or two-word [...]
You have your health
Posted in Uncategorized, tagged health, life on November 3, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
I was reminded tonight that despite the moments where you are crying, frustrated, tired, stressed, desperate or at the end of your rope, that in the end, life is ok because “you have your health.” Something so little, so inconsequential in our day to day moments of slogging through work, interacting with family, friends or [...]
