While I don’t like choosing sides, I also don’t condone nonsense. No matter anyone’s stance, my everyday purchased or used items should not come at the cost of someone else’s life. I was at a point to basically milling my own flour, when my significant other brought up a very valid point. “If these industries…

Showcasing Contentment
If you had a freeway billboard, what would it say? On the billboard, I was show a picture of a stack of money, and under it I would say, “it’s not that serious.” Many people would get offended, others probably would be confused. It’s not for them, or maybe it is. For anyone who understands,…
Illuminating Your Own Dreams
It was broad daylight, as I walked uphill carrying a car seat in one hand, and tugging my other child as well. Their father called me, I hung up immediately. Looking into the sky, an Aurora Borealis began flickering its display, as bright as day. I didn’t realize it would be heaven. While researching the…
Say Less

I paid deeply for that thinking, people continuously abused my kindness and pretended they did nothing wrong. Now, even the slightest off behavior,…
Integrity
What is something others do that sparks your admiration? I learned the word when I was 12, and hardly saw it demonstrated. People would prefer to be unscrupulous, always scheming to get their way, instead of doing the right thing. I call it the grey area…the void where people assume a little good and bad…
Less Perfectionism
What could you do less of? The absolute need to attempt perfection when I know it’s more than just a falsehood, and has hurt me in the past. It’s unrealistic and pointless. I prefer the cycle of life to what I was taught – to walk, talk, dress and seem a certain way. The moon…
Dodged That Bullet!
I tried to play match maker and it didn’t work! I won’t reveal who or why, but I found the two would not make a good pair. As one is very sweet, and kind. And the other just wanted to get their next fix! Assuming this person admired my relationship, I hoped to match them…
