A kiss really can “make it all better”! It says I love you; and we’re bigger than the problem. I’m here. And you’re okay.… More
When you don’t take the time to get to know somebody, you can wake up with a stranger.
And this is equally true even after you’re married!… More
We don’t have to smile just because we feel good. We can smile because we WANT to feel good.
It works!… More
I sometimes find myself tiptoeing around the options, examining them carefully, as though touching them or trying them is against the rules. Maybe you’ve been there — trying to make a decision without the advantage (and it’s a big one) of trying the options.
I have learned that it’s faster to rearrange the furniture and see how I like it than it is to stand there wondering, weighing all the options. There’s a really good chance that I’m going to try it before making a final decision. So, why spend too much time and energy belaboring it?
We’re continually faced with choices — little ones (some of which have a big impact) and life-changing ones. And sometimes we have to do something to decide on an option, a direction, the next step. Life is to be lived as well as contemplated.
I believe in solitude — there are things that can only be seen and heard in solitude. But there are also lessons that may never be learned short of action. Don’t be afraid to fall on your butt if that’s what it takes to get the lesson or the prize.

My husband likes to be chased. He teases me, then runs away…and like a little boy, he looks back to make sure I’m running after him. If I am, he picks up his speed, and we squeal and laugh until I catch him, hurling both of us to the floor.
It used to surprise me when people put sense of humor so high on the list of what they wanted in a partner. Given how little I had nurtured my own sense of humor, I didn’t want to think it was terribly important.
Humor struck me as a tool people used to dodge the issue, an excuse not to analyze the facts and the feelings, make a distinction between them and have a serious conversation. And, as you might imagine, I was determined to have one.
But a sense of humor can also be a willingness to let go, a willingness to accept what is, without analyzing it. You can analyze somebody’s behavior to understand him, without making analysis a prerequisite to acceptance!
When my sweetie and I land in that pile on the floor, we eventually stop laughing and start talking or kissing, or we get up and go back to work.… More
