Let go of the idea that things could have happened differently, as if this life is a Choose Your Own Adventure book and you simply turned to the wrong page.  You did the best you could with what you knew and felt at the time.” ~ Maggie Smith   What a profound statement. And so true. IContinue reading “Page 32”

How do you know when sharing your feelings is too much too soon? Should we hide how we feel? I’m torn. I know that no one is promised tomorrow and goodness knows I want the people I love and care about to know that, but what if you share too much and it scares theContinue reading “Page 31”

Have you ever wondered how you would react if your prayers were answered, and you got what you had been hoping and praying for? I am sitting in that position right now.

I was in 2 extremely toxic workContinue reading “Page 25”

“Don’t stop. Don’t hesitate. You can’t be scared of what’s next. Do not let fear get in your way. That’s why we don’t operate alone. So in the cases where somebody actually does get hurt, nobody has to go through it alone.” This is a quote from one of my favorite TV shows, but itContinue reading “Page 24”
