This title is a little ironic in the current circumstances, but I assure you this mask has nothing to do with the pandemic. Although, I would say that the time alone during it has given me ample time to think about this topic… When I was a kid, I loved playing dress-up. If there was… Read More Take Your Mask Off
I woke up, and I was suddenly showered with regret. I’m sure the average person has had at least ONE of those nights. Whether it is a night that is a little too much fun, or the middle-of-the-night (somewhat crazy-puff) moments where we can’t resist, we’ve had a 3 a.m. regret. For me, it was… Read More 3 a.m. Regret
Today, I found a quote from Maya Angelou on LinkedIn, “Do the best you can until you know better.

I know that good men exist; they are out there somewhere. However, there is one type of male that I have run into again and again in recent years – what I like to refer to as “the man-child”. It seems that gone are the days of wooing and courting. Now, you “swipe right” to… Read More Where Have All The Good Ones Gone?
Have you ever heard the saying about the fish who wanted to fly? Or the bird who wanted to swim? Neither one would ever be able to do what the other could do. Sometimes we need to accept our limitations and lead ourselves down a new path. Sometimes we fail – and that’s okay. I… Read More Failure Is Necessary
