You deserve to be happy. Not just a little bit happy. Not just mediocre happy. You deserve to be genuinely happy, excited happy, ready-to-face-each-day happy. You deserve to be happy. You deserve to live a life you are excited about. Don’t let others make you forget that. ~Unknown. Have you ever been at a point […]

Ride With Faith
I received an email this week that inspired this blog entry. A woman in her late 50’s wrote to me about her fear of losing her faith. She’s had a very rough past couple of years. As I read everything that she has been through, my heart was heavy for her. She lost her husband […]
Never Be A Prisoner Of Your Past
It’s really hard not to have regrets and not look back. But you do your present and your future a great disservice by holding onto the past. You cannot change it, edit it, alter it, refine it or wish it into something else. It is what it was. And it ain’t going to change. Ever. […]
This Is All I Want-Read More
I try to live a drama-free life. I’ve learned that it is an acquired skill. You have to want inner peace more than anything else and you have to be willing to and learn how to walk away from anything that threatens your inner peace. When I reached this point, I was no longer a […]
I love My Sister
Yes, I do. I love my sister. I have three sisters, but I don’t think of them as a “group” because they are all so unique with very different personalities. We all look differently, act differently and we have very different lives. Even though we’re all different, the love is the same–I love them to […]
No Beauty Shines Brighter Than That Of A Good Heart
All of us have our own perceptions of beauty. We see a beautiful face and we think, “Oh what a beautiful face”. Or we see a really fit, youthful body and we think, “They look so young and fit.” And sometimes our thinking is wistful. We long to be like them, to not have the […]
Either They Like You Or They Don’t
Some people are just not going to like you. No matter what you say or do, some people just won’t ever like you. And that’s not on you. That’s something to do with them. It’s who they are. Either they like you or they don’t. Never try to convince somebody of your worth. If a […]
May The Good Lord Take A Liking To You
Wouldn’t it be great to still have this kind of show on television? Prime time? My goodness. If a show were created that had sincere praying and acknowledgment of God, there would be groups rioting in the streets. And that, my friends, is a sad commentary. I am so grateful that I was exposed to […]
Two Things Define You
Most all of us have been in a place in our life where we thought we had nothing. We did, of course, have something, but we just didn’t have what we wanted. And no matter how hard we worked, no matter what we did, we just couldn’t get to the place where we weren’t living […]
Never Lose Hope
It ain’t over until God says it’s over. No matter how many times you get knocked down, no matter how many times someone tells you that it’s over, no matter how hard it is to keep going, it ain’t over until God says it’s over. Never lose hope. Just when you think it’s over, God […]
