Now that we understand exactly what I'm talking about, let's get to it. First, the need to be kind (without planning it) for some is apparent, while for others it might hesitantly sneak out after much deliberation...I said might.

Ah, yes, the mind/body connection. The more we hear about how important it is, the more we should pay attention. What gives, Ladies and Gentlemen (we've got some male fans now)?

Just as the honorable, passionate woman brings beauty and love to the table, her counterpart, the naughty, greedy (equally passionate) gal can ruin your life and her own faster than you can say Desperate Housewives.

Yes, the world needs you to start oozing....anytime now. Go ahead, make a big mess! Let it all hang out of your pretty little world.

I was thinking the other day about what it's like to have a wonderful experience in a store or restaurant as opposed to a not-so-good one. You know them both well, I'm sure.

There aren't too many women out there who could say that they didn't need something, whether it be clothes, kitchen utensils, a man, a job, a car; it's human nature to expand their list of possessions.

Acknowledging even the smallest of gestures sent forth into our experience is one of the most satisfying things you can do. We've all heard the saying "stop and smell the roses."

Someone anonymously once said, "Confidence is the feeling we have before knowing all the facts.” This quote speaks a profound truth to me: You don't have to be perfect and completely prepared before moving into something new.

For a long time, I have known that if you give your body what it needs, it will heal itself. Well, recently I've discovered that it actually tells you what it needs. Let me explain.

IntrospectiveSunday Allow me to finish that question:  Am I all that I’m supposed to be?  Probably not…I don’t think any of us are. What we …

If the worst thing that you waste on a daily basis is the last 3 oz of Coke in the bottom of the can, you can rest with no guilt. On the other hand, wasteful thinking is, well, a waste of time and a serious matter.

First of all, when you create, you take a chance that other people won't like your creation. You might get ridiculed for it, or even be hated. They might never speak to you again...or visit your blog.

What is stressful to me may not be to you and visa-versa. That is why you always think Aunt Mary is overreacting when the family arrives at her home late for dinner.

Women know better than anyone what it feels like to carry around a big, heavy purse for any length of time. And if you're like me, such a bag is usually necessary to bring along all the things I need for my children and my own indulgences. Though physically we can handle extra weight (for awhile), we are not meant to carry around emotional baggage. What am I talking about? You know....really, you do. That job crisis you had last year; the fight you had with your husband; the breast cancer scare from three years ago; the rejection from sixth grade...

OK, just so we get this straight, I never promised you a rose garden. Redoing or using a second chance to make something right isn't always full-proof. It could take several.
