Setting the Stage. . . It occurred to me this past week that I have been deliberately avoiding what I’m meant to do. Not all of it mind you, but the most important part. And the part to which income and future financial security are linked. It’s not that I didn’t suspect I was walking…

Another from the archives of “The Connection Station” at AWI. I love this one because it’s so perfect for the last few weeks of an old year; as we prepare for the new. Funny thing about us humans! We have an uncanny ability to hold onto things that have long since lost their meaning and…

Yesterday I briefly talked about being “bold”. I suggested that true boldness – the kind that doesn’t back down whether or no – may come once in a lifetime for many of us.

You know the old expression – “use it or lose it!” Over the years, I’ve learned the hard way that the saying is 100% true. I had a big booming operatic voice when young. I studied church music and secretly for the opera. “Secretly” because my Dad did not take kindly to my learning anything…

Oh but for a slip of the tongue, kingdoms would not have been lost. Or relationships damaged beyond repair! Or the heart of a fool revealed in one utterance to be regretted an entire life through. . . Sounds a bit poetic, does it not? And yet there’s so much truth, fact and wisdom in…

Moments ago, it occurred to me that the older I get the more I change! I’ve just read a post on my Facebook news feed with which I wholeheartedly agree. Another friend agrees as well. As I read her response I pondered how different we were in our life perspective years ago. Less serious perhaps,…
