Pen to Paper
I was speaking with a colleague at work and after we had the business part resolved, he asked, “Are you still writing morning pages?” I told him that I’m writing everyday, but had slacked off on the morning pages and he sighed. Oh, I have a box labeled, “Morning Pages 2024”, but at some point,…

A Vintage Soul
I love vintage items. Even if I buy something new it feeds my heart more if it has simple lines with a vintage flair. My favorite flower is the Hydrangea and I do a lot of my writing on a vintage typewriter, so things from the past feed my soul. I enjoy doing things by…

Call Me Ma’am
I watched a movie that began by the woman kicking her husband out of the house for having an affair with a woman 20 years younger. In one scene she was sitting outdoors at a coffee house, surrounded by people, but no one even noticed her. She said. “Women over 40 are invisible”, and I…

The Best Part
I recently published The Seeds of Success, by Og Mandino and yes, it was a little odd to post that here, but there is a method to my madness. When I first learned someone had purchased my previous domain name, Letitgocoach, and pointed it to a porn site, I was angry, but mainly at myself…

Move the Bed
I bought a new laptop in January and finally figured out how to stop this annoying popup from appearing every time the laptop powered on. It wasn’t a matter of not knowing how, but taking the time to sit with it long enough to figure it out. A lot of life is like that. Over…

The Seeds of Success by Og Mandino
God, I thank you for this day. I know I have not accomplished as yet all you expect of me, and if that is your reason for bathing me in the fresh dew of another dawn, I am most grateful. I am prepared at last, to make you proud of me. I will forget yesterday,…

The Kitchen Table
On Sunday’s I spread out and don’t worry about the mess. Sitting at the kitchen table I snapped a photo for you and to some it may look cluttered, but to me it tells the story of how I’m living my life. My home is being used as storage for this kitchen table. One day,…

Like the Prodigal
When I first started blogging, there was a song by TobyMac called, “Lose My Soul“, and a phrase in that song was branded in my mind. “I don’t want to gain the whole world and lose my soul.” No matter where blogging took me, I was to remain true to those words. In 2014 I…

That One Thing
You reach a certain age and realize you’ve lived more years than you probably have left, so I’ve been pondering topics such as, purpose, passion, meaningful work and fulfilling relationships, while continually seeking God with, ‘what’s next?’ The other night I sat down and listened to a workshop recording with Joshua Becker and took some…

Life’s Little Rewards
I’ve got a real thing for matches. Probably because of my love for candles and the matches are used to light them. This offers ritual to use a long wooden match to light a candle and you should try it. I’m sitting in front of the book table while writing this. I don’t even call…

Slowly Fading Away
To the beautiful soul who has lost their spark. To the soul whose get up and go, has went and truly gone. This is for you. This is to remind you, that you don’t have to be everything to everyone, every day. You didn’t sign up for that. Remember when you used to laugh, sing…
