Happy Labor Day!
Following my passion to write has been the self-therapy I needed to really know and share my true self. And that has been rewarded with finding my “happily ever after” with a partner!
Nineteen years ago, I quit my corporate job to write full time, and amassed a stack of rejection letters. A friend’s husband suggested I contact the local times. I happened to serve on the United Way’s board with the publisher of the local newspaper, The Gainesville Sun. I called him and left a message.

Not only would we have peace, love would reign supreme in our hearts and in our world, as each of us grew into our very best self.… More
Shortcut to knowing how well somebody will love you …
SHORTCUT to knowing how well he/she will love you: Look at how well he loves himself–not how well he appears to love his mother, his kids, or anybody else. If he does more for others than he does for himself, what he does is tainted (perhaps by obligation, agenda, guilt, or desire to escape his own needs). How well does he love himself? Does he show respect for his body, mind, and spirit? Does he nurture all three of them? Does he respond to his own needs? He can only love you as well as he loves himself!… More
Let your heart lead …
Let the heart lead. It’s more decisive than the mind (without shoulds and should-nots); and it knows anything is possible! … More
