So it's been awhile since I've written anything. There has been a lot going on, and I've had to step back and examine everything that's happened, and allow my emotions and thoughts to sort themselves out. I've talked about drama in the workplace quite a bit recently, and that is the major part of what … Continue reading It’s Been a While

Healing and Being Healthy
There is always something happening in our lives, and the last couple of weeks have been no exception. I was going to ignore one thing that happened, or at least save it for later with a different subject, but something happened yesterday that caused me to change my mind. First, let me give you a … Continue reading Healing and Being Healthy
Plastic Weddings
So a few things happened this week that really brought the idea of weddings vs marriages, and relationships vs marriages out to me this week, so I think that this is a good time to talk about the differences, and what makes a marriage work. But first, let me tell you what happened, and how … Continue reading Plastic Weddings
Punishment and Healing
When I was a child and did something wrong, the punishment was usually long and arduous, especially if it involved both of my parents. And regardless of the circumstances, regardless of whether or not I was simply grounded to my room, spanked, or if it involved yelling at me, it always involved a lecture about … Continue reading Punishment and Healing
In a Year of Turmoil, A Story of Hope
The early part of this year was extremely brutal, with many losses, changes, bad news, and for many months it seemed like it would never end. Today, I can finally write a story of hope and courage. For some, it is a miracle. For others, a tragedy. But in the end, it is a story … Continue reading In a Year of Turmoil, A Story of Hope
Consideration….
Tonight, I'm sitting here, and I've had several possible options run through my head (as always) for what to write. And I have only one overriding thought that it staying in my head. My ego wants to write another angry blog about drama, but that's not going to help anyone. And while I am angry … Continue reading Consideration….
Truth and Freedom
So I'm talking with my step-son the other night about movies, and what some of my favorites are. Movies like: Redbelt, V for Vendetta, Ironclad, City of Ember, Up, Wall-E, Avatar, Star Wars to name a few. Now that might seem like an unusual mix of movies, but there is a theme to what I … Continue reading Truth and Freedom
Deep Traumatic Response
I'm just home from work, winding down, and thinking about what I could write about, and amid all of the fluff stories and sensationalism I found a gem. It's not a ground-breaking story with some major revelation, it doesn't have to be. The subject is a tough-enough one to deal with anyway. Be aware, before … Continue reading Deep Traumatic Response
Getting Knocked Around
So I know it's been several days since I've posted anything, and while I have a few minutes, I wanted to come in with an update. As you know, about 6 months ago, I changed jobs. I love my new job. I love seeing my customers, like my co-workers, enjoy the paperwork, and don't mind … Continue reading Getting Knocked Around
History Is Written By The…
The temperature in the desert is up again, and so is the humidity. We've made some recent changes to our routine, adding in regular yoga and more meditation exercises, and I'm seeking to make other changes to remove some areas of negativity that have gotten unreasonable. Making these changes, has given me time to think, … Continue reading History Is Written By The…
