Unexplained and irrevocable tragedies put my FAITH in the bigger picture to the test. “Heartbroken” — such a fitting use of words to … More Wildflower Hearts 🌸
This week was CRAZY!!! Between work, workouts and kids activities…I’m impressed and relieved we’ve made it to Friday. I frequently get the question, “How do you do everything you do?” To be honest, some days, I don’t even know…🤷🏻♀️ BUT, I’ve adopted the principles of improvisation, flexibility and adaptability. And these have been a game … More Improvisation, Flexibility & Adaptability

I marvel that I can feel the seemingly opposing emotions of anger and gratitude so intensely at the same time. I am at times livid that I am living a life that I never imagined living. Yet, I would never go back and wish this experience away. Because of it, I returned to myself. I believe everything happens for a reason but we don’t always get to see the reason. Bad days make me doubt my belief in this. Angry days make me question whether the pain will be worth it in the end. … More Anger
