A Lesson in Letting Go

I watch a father and his daughter standing in the shallow waters along the shores of the lake.  He holds his hands beneath her stomach, as if he were a juggler and she an object to keep in balance.  He is teaching her how to swim.  He explains to her how to let the water […]

Get Inspired. Stay Inspired.

I like to believe that everyone wants to live an inspired life. I believe that we all want to bring value and positively impact others. That’s why I am passionate about living an inspired life. So at the beginning of each new year I reflect and take inventory of the year before.  I have always […]

My Affair with Journaling

It all began at the age of 12.  As I opened my presents on Christmas Eve, one gift was going to change my life.  It was a small dark green diary with its very own tiny gold key.  I could hardly wait until January 1 arrived so I could begin writing in it.  New to […]

It’s Time!

Seeing Beneath The Surface

Growing up in the country, one of my favorite summer pastimes was spending hot summer afternoons hiking through the woods. A creek flowed through the middle of our farm.  One of my favorite pastimes was to gaze into the water searching for what lingered beneath the surface, while our horses took a much needed rest […]

An Unknown Woman In The Bible?

Although her name appears just once in Paul’s letter to the church at Rome, Junia is one of the most unknown women of the Bible.  Paul wrote in Romans 16:7, “Greet Andronicus and Junia, my fellow Jews who have been in prison with me. They are outstanding among the apostles, and they were in Christ before […]
