“Why fit in when you were born to stand out?” is a quote by Dr. Seuss. Have you heard of it before now? I like this quote as it reminds me to embrace my unique self and to enjoy the uniqueness in others. Because let’s face it, we are all unique. We are all different.Continue reading “Why Fit In When You Were Born To Stand Out?”

Embracing Limbo
I really liked this photo of the lizard because even though he’s supposed to be able to camouflage himself and turn the colors of the limb he’s on, he’s his own color. Can you relate to being in between two worlds and not fitting in? The old you doesn’t fit anymore. The new you hasn’tContinue reading “Embracing Limbo”
I Don’t Know…
It’s when the need to change (whether by choice or by circumstance) is more powerful than staying with what one is familiar with that sparks the insight and the steps forward. So, if you don’t really know what you want to change, but only that you need a change in your life. That’s a goodContinue reading “I Don’t Know…”
What Do You Want To Change?
The very first question I ask is “What do you want to change?” because that’s the crux of it really. We can talk for hours about what’s going on in your life, but when we zero in on what you want to change, well then, that’s a whole different story. Because most people’s first reactionContinue reading “What Do You Want To Change?”
Hello April!

A Christmas Puppy
Well, we did it. We got a Christmas Golden Retriever puppy. We had been thinking of adding to our family for awhile, but I always believed that when the right pup came along, we’d know…and we did. His name is Buster. I don’t even know how he got the name, but I think it fits.Continue reading “A Christmas Puppy”
Autumn Embraces Change
Autumn embraces change, even as she is falling to pieces. ~ Angie Weiland Crosby When an abrupt change occurs, we have options in how we view it. We can close our eyes to the impactful change, hoping to not have to deal with it (because frankly we’d rather not upend our lives). Or we canContinue reading “Autumn Embraces Change”
Looking For A Sign?
The weekend has arrived! I can’t believe it’s already November. Where has time flown to? Soon enough we’ll be thinking about holiday shopping for gifts and all that’s needed to make the festivities even brighter. Because I think we ‘need a little Christmas’ even earlier this year. (Did you notice the quote from Auntie Mame?Continue reading “Looking For A Sign?”
Change Is Beautiful
Fall is proof that change is beautiful! I think we are similar to trees. As saplings, we may bend to everyone’s whim and rules. But as we grow older, we become more established and while personal development can be compared in a sense to the change of seasons, we really do flow with the seasons.Continue reading “Change Is Beautiful”
