keys for our mutual wellness. I am not a teacher of doctor. I am an ordinary imperfect woman living in an extraordinary imperfect world.

Against the evidence...I live by choice.

As I reach to close each book lying open on my desk, it leaps up to snap at my fingers. My legs won't hold me, I must sit down. My fingers pain me where the thick leaves snapped together at my touch. All my life I've held books in my hands like children, carefully turning their pages and... Sign in to see full entry.

Our mind-sets and preconceptions of mistrust can distort and...

aggravate situations. It makes sense to protect ourselves by pretending we're just not that interested. But if we're thinking, "he's only out for himself," then we too feel entitled to be our for ourselves. Whom should we trust and whom should we be suspicious of? This psychological dilemma of trust...

When the romance and fantasy fades away and we begin to...

see the men in our lives defrocked of their great mystery, that they are merely human like us, the glow in our faces fades. If we're not careful every time something negative happens with our men, we can look at it as a problem we need to fix. We need to look elsewhere for our own happiness. If we...

I can feel a cold coming, got tears leaking from my eyes, rheum from my nose, saliva from my mouth and my heart is singing the blues, I'm chilled to the bone, did you know it takes three days to get a cold, three days to have a cold, and three days to get over a cold?
