Letting myself be angry

The past 24 hours have been very enlightening – not easy, but enlightening. 🙂

Three perfect gifts

I have received three Perfect Gifts in my life.  No, not the type that come out of a genie lamp or are bestowed by fairies upon a child’s birth.  I’m talking honest-to-goodness gifts that I could hold in my hand and unwrap.

What made them perfect?  Each of them was so incredible because I felt …

The Hope Van

I have just returned home from a truly remarkable experience.  This is one of those “someone is guiding my steps” moments.

This afternoon I went to the grocery store for my weekly shopping.  To get home, I needed to pull out of the parking lot onto a little access road that is shared with WalMart.  …

Desperately Seeking Dysfunction

My dad has been on my mind and in my conversation a lot over the last several weeks.  That is usually a signal that another “divine opportunity for healing” is right around the corner. Oh joy.

My growing up years were dominated by my father’s alcoholism.  He was very high-functioning in the world and many …

A whole MONTH?!?

About 10 days ago I had a conversation with my mom about selling the website business. She asked me if I would let myself take any time off.  It was a fair question, given that she knows my tendency to fill any little space with 16 new ideas and projects.

A friend who listens to you bitch and then lets out an explosive “Motherf****r!” at exactly the right moment.

A friend who has a way of cheering you up and making you laugh even though 20 minutes ago you felt like you might never …
