The lyrics of a popular ’80s song ran across my mind recently- ‘ I’ve been staring at your photograph, wondering where you’re at today’🎶. Have you ever thought about the people whose lives intertwined with yours over the years? If only for a season. Where are they? Recently I was skimming through an old diaryContinue reading “For That Moment”

Looking Back
This morning I picked up an old diary – 1983- to be exact. I turned to today’s date [ May 9th]; just like today Monday , May 9th. I was curious to see what was happening in my life then as a teenager. It wasn’t a lovely day. For some reason my mom was notContinue reading “Looking Back”
For You
We take the time to celebrate mothers this weekend. For some reason my heart is drawn to those who find it difficult to celebrate. I see you – I feel you. I stand with you. Some may not understand why a day like today brings you little joy. You may also find yourself in thisContinue reading “For You”
Meant For This
This week has been designated as a week to honor teachers here in my neck of the woods. I shared in another post [Right person, Right Place -Destiny Moments] that this career was never on my vision board growing up. My pastor suggested it and I tried it! One of the best decisions I haveContinue reading “Meant For This”
I Met a Girl
The older I get the more I come to appreciate the people that I have crossed path with. They all came for a reason, some for just a season. I attended college 3 different times. Once I met a girl. Actually, I met many girls [and guys] – some shown below. That girl has stayedContinue reading “I Met a Girl”
My Thoughts
The mind is an amazing store house of treasures. Ever so often some surface that brings a smile to our face. I don’t take for granted that my mind is ‘sound’. Guarding my mind is an intentional act for me daily. Some things are not allowed to take residence there. I choose to leave ‘space’Continue reading “My Thoughts”
The Anchor Holds
This is a reminder and an encouragement for those readers who feel like they are drowning under the weight of their current circumstances. It seems like ‘every thing that could go wrong, has gone wrong’. You feel like you are in the ‘perfect storm’. Your vision is blurred and there seem to be no wayContinue reading “The Anchor Holds”
The Love That Won’t let Go
Love is one of those mysteries of life. It drives us to do things that boggles the mind some times. It causes mothers to become ferocious warriors, fathers to rise up like giants, men to climb mountains and women to swim rivers. We often act seemingly foolish and do the impossible because of love. WithContinue reading “The Love That Won’t let Go”
Breathe
Over the past few years I have noticed that many parents, educators, counselors, therapists and caregivers have been using breathing techniques to help calm those experiencing moments of anxiety. Medical science says that we were created with a natural stress response mechanism that helps us in times of danger and anxiety. However, when it isContinue reading “Breathe”
We Show Up
Life is hard. It throws us some unexpected curves at times and we don’t get the luxury to sit it out. We get up, we move – rest if we must, but we can’t afford to quit. I have been teaching virtually since 2020. I work in adult education. Over the past few years, IContinue reading “We Show Up”
