May is Mental Health Awareness Month.

My family has been impacted for many generations with mental health issues. I pray that all those who are effected by mental health trauma and tragedy get healing. For mothers, fathers, sisters and brothers and all communities impacted find their glimmer of hope in the light of The Lord and the Spirit of Christ breathes into the souls suffering from this malady with loving kindness and compassion. Amen 🙏

Please read my first short story. It's called A Tale of the Mountain. It's about losing my mind and finding it again. It's about a calling and of aging where I ask myself "Is the last lesson the hardest lesson"?

As we come to the end of 2024 I am reminded of the wins and the losses this year has brought.

No one plans for life to go astray but sometimes circumstances cause us to grasp and reach for the familiar even though it causes us pain. I’ve sought to change that in 2024 and that is my win!

I am reminded of what my teachers have taught me. Stop surrendering and ask to be open instead.

I am reminded of the times I took a chance in life because the status quo was more painful then failing.

I decided to view things from a more sober reality and realized that all answers for me are within me. If I stay open the way will be shown.

That no one has my best interest in life more than me. And sometimes we sit in Gods waiting room longer than is comfortable.

I woke up this morning with the verse “Anything is possible with him”. I looked it up and found this quote from Matthew 19:26
“With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.”

I recognize now that I’ve stepped out of the boat just like Peter did when Jesus asked him to walk on water in the storm.

I may fail. I may sink and I could potentially drown, but my faith and openness will lead me somewhere I have never been before. This is exciting.

There is a possibility of new beginnings, new people and new opportunities.

Rather than being ashamed of how I’ve wound up in 2024 be amazed at how much I’ve tried, how much I’ve believed in, and how much I’ve served and loved.

This life story continues and transformation never ends. Planet earth is my schoolhouse and I am in graduate school. The best is yet to come in 2025.

What about you?

Why not make every day a self care spa day. Love and respect your body, mind and spirit religiously and the trio will love you back.

Why not make every day a spa day. It’s an attitude of self care.

I am sharing this not only because he's my son and I am so proud of him, but because he has an important message during an important time in history. Thank you Cameron for caring so much about people! I love you!

My husband Peter just got another awesome short story published. This will touch your heart! 🥰

With my eyes on the exit, I squirmed on the edge of the bench. “Sit still. We’ll be done in two minutes.”  “How long is two minutes?”  “That depends on whether you cooperate or not. Here, try these.” Mom dropped a pair of shoes in my lap. Not everything took two minutes, only the thi...
