Today my high school celebrates its 81st birthday. So much of who I am grew out of my 5 years at this noble institution. Many of the bonds I formed then are still very much a part of my world today. I would do it all over again – maybe this time around, it wouldContinue reading “Right for Me”

The Green Bench
Times have surely changed. Have you echoed that sentiment recently? I consider myself a confirmed people watcher. This is a hobby of mine, partly because I am so intrigued with human behavior and how we have changed over the decades. Particularly in the ways we socialize. Recently I came across this picture I took ofContinue reading “The Green Bench”
When It’s Over
Seasons, graduations, baby showers, weddings, retirement parties, gray hairs, joint pains and funerals are all reminders that most things in life don’t last forever. There is truly a time for everything. Seasons come and they go. Though we all know this, many of us have a hard time letting go and moving on. Many ofContinue reading “When It’s Over”
Kept Safe
On a previous post [BSM] I wrote about a safety feature in my car that alerts me to vehicles in my blind spot and how we relate the concept of blind spots in our lives. There are two other safety features in my car that provide extra guidance and protection on the roads. RSA [Continue reading “Kept Safe”
BSM
Blind Spot Monitoring system [ BSM] is a safety mechanism in my car that warns me of other vehicles in my blind spot. It alerts me with an LED light in the corresponding side view mirror. The main intent is to aid drivers with lane changes and prevent accidents. Honestly, this has helped me aContinue reading “BSM”
No Cuffing Here
Many like myself find it a task keeping up with the common slangs that evolve around us time after time. Cuffing is one that caught my attention recently. It is a term based on the idea of getting “handcuffed” or tied down to one person. The Urban dictionary defines the cuffing season as the ‘season inContinue reading “No Cuffing Here”
Peace Or Right
As we navigate the holiday season and move towards the new year we often do some inner reflection. As I age gracefully, being at peace has become so much more important to me than being right. I guard my space where ever I go -I choose to operate in the spirit of peace. The bibleContinue reading “Peace Or Right”
Lasting Memories
They say ‘memories don’t leave like people do – they always stay with you. Whether they’ve been good or bad’. Not sure how true this is. Christmas fell on a Sunday 2005, 2011, and 2016. Funny I tried so hard to remember what those Christmases looked like; I remember nothing. It could have been thatContinue reading “Lasting Memories”
Someday
I live in a community with a beautiful melting pot of cultures. This past week I had the opportunity to hang out with a group of people from a different culture. We spoke a different language, played games differently, cooked and ate differently. Despite a difference in lifestyle, we connected for a moment in timeContinue reading “Someday”
Recharge and Reset
This is a time of year when we can easily keep going like the energizer bunny. For the last few days, I found myself in that mode doing a lot of socializing – visiting here and there. Eating at hours that threw my body off a bit – I typically don’t eat at nights. WhileContinue reading “Recharge and Reset”
