Empathizing With Chronic Pain Sufferers
Believe me when I say I can empathize with those of you who suffer from chronic pain conditions. I know how exhausting it can be to hurt all the time. I’m right there with you with my fibromyalgia (which feels like somebody has pulled the plug, drained all the energy out of me, then thrown … Continue reading Empathizing With Chronic Pain Sufferers
Procrastination Woes
Don’t procrastinate! There! See, that helps, doesn’t it? If only it were that easy. I think some personalities are more prone to procrastinating than others. Maybe those who, like me, tend to put off things we find hard, that seem scary, or we don’t like doing anyway. Then there’s that matter of not liking conflict … Continue reading Procrastination Woes
Full Circle
I was reminded of something very important today: “It’s not about you.” Yes, that’s the first line from the book #The Purpose Driven Life by Rick Warren and it’s true. We get so caught up in ourselves and what we’re doing and what’s going on around us, we forget about the big picture. We forget … Continue reading Full Circle

But you wouldn’t need faith to do something you were comfortable with, right? Stepping out of your comfort zone requires … Continue reading Steps of Faith
Attitude Adjustment
Have you noticed you don’t have to be up and about for very long each day before you hear some grumbling, gossip, or foul language? Maybe it’s your voice you’re hearing. It may seem like a legitimate response to something that just happened, like spilling a sticky drink all over your clothes and the floor … Continue reading Attitude Adjustment
May is Mental Health Awareness Month
Two of the most common mental health conditions, depression and anxiety, cost the global economy the equivalent of US$ 1 trillion a year, according to the World Health Organization. Depression affects approximately 280 million people worldwide and can occur alone, concurrent with another mental health condition (such as anxiety or substance abuse), or as a … Continue reading May is Mental Health Awareness Month
Chosen
Since you clicked on this blog and are reading it, I believe you are chosen by God. That may sound a little kooky, but stick with me for a bit. I’m hoping you’ll come to realize you were put on this earth for a reason and it’s up to you to figure out what that … Continue reading Chosen
