How You Treat People Matters

 Today’s message at church was about restoring our relationships and purposefully seeking forgiveness. I was so moved by the words our Pastor spoke and as he closed his message and we prayed I had tears in my eyes. Maybe someone out there can relate and has a relationship that is torn or broken and when you think of that person you have resentment,… Continue reading How You Treat People Matters

Well this morning I nearly let my emotions get the best of me and the day could’ve easily turned into a disaster.   After my husband left for class I suddenly became so overwhelmed, emotional, and… Continue reading Option A: The Gym, Option B: Emotional Breakdown

Music Fills My Soul

If there is one thing I wouldn’t like to be without it’s music. My mom likes to tell me the thing she misses the most about me not living at home anymore are all those times I’d turn on my music and dance all around the house and jump on the bed and belt out… Continue reading Music Fills My Soul

Take Time To Say Thank You

Today’s inspiration comes from my daily Zelda Wisdom subscription. We all have busy schedules and things to take care of but we shouldn’t take for granted the significance of a “thank you” and telling someone how much you appreciate what they did/do for you. Remember that every day is a blessing and we can choose to be happy and make… Continue reading Take Time To Say Thank You

For starters on the 16th my parents celebrated their 37th wedding anniversary.

Things Happen For A Reason

Sometimes what you believe you want most in life is not always what you need. Today I received an acceptance letter from CSU-Fullerton for Fall 2011. I remember how happy I was when I received that same letter last year for Fall 2010 and how surreal it felt to me that I’d finally be attending… Continue reading Things Happen For A Reason

Some More Doggie Wisdom

This bit of wisdom is from a few days ago but it’s never too late to share. I get these “day to day dogmas” every morning and it’s one of my favorite ways to start the day. This one made me think of Biggie. If there is one thing I’ve learned about Biggie is that he is not… Continue reading Some More Doggie Wisdom

Feelings

Today has been a bit overwhelming. Between phone calls, deadlines, emails, and just little unexpected things that come up at work, and with personal stuff too, I’m feeling a little bit anxious and rushed. I know writing right now might set me back a little bit but honestly I need the little breather to regain focus and energy. I… Continue reading Feelings

Relationships

Today one of my younger cousins that I grew up with had her first baby, a beautiful baby girl named Carly.  I don’t have any sisters of my own and this cousin of mine and her two sisters are pretty close to being that for me.  We shared a lot of experiences together growing up and although sometimes we lose touch… Continue reading Relationships
