  • So Long 2015; Hello 2016!!!

    Nearly five and a half months without posting and so much has happened in that time. I actually started writing this post when the new year hit – as would be expected, but then life got in the way. There’s nothing like a bit of an emotional jolt, results of meditation and life changes to reset…

  • #LetGo

    It’s been a while since I’ve taken the time to sit in front of my computer and do some work on it for personal reasons. Part of the reason is that I have actually been very busy with life and enjoying new adventures and paths that are in front of me. Part of the reason…

  • Humanism

    These past almost two weeks have really given me a sense of peace and calm. I have also discovered a new direction for my life as long as I keep working my energies towards that path. One thing that has really come out of this mindfulness training is the discovery of other people who believe…

  • Hooked!

    So, I’m six days in to the Mindfulness Summit and I’m totally hooked! Ages ago a friend or friends talked to me about my thoughts on meditation and yoga. I thought I wasn’t into it and although I have a belief in a higher being, I wasn’t really going to embrace a new-agey kind of trend.…

  • Mindfulness Summit 2015

    My friend, T posted this on her FB page as an event she was planning on attending. I had seen it before on another friend’s post, but had only glanced at it then. So, this time I took a closer look at it. In the past, people have suggested the idea of meditation and tried…

  • Reflections

    I was writing in my journal today, which I must say I have been fairly diligent with suggesting that perhaps the ol’ pen and paper might not be dead yet, and happened to read back over the last 18 months. It’s almost hard to remember what my life was like just a year and a…

  • When Enough is Enough…

    I always knew there would come a time in my career when I should give up on teaching. I felt that time had come a few years ago, but I have kept pushing on thinking perhaps different levels or different circumstances will make it better. After spending a full semester away from the classroom doing…

  • News Flash: You’re Just Not That Important!

    This is another posting about driving – not about my car, though! 😀 Now that I am higher up on the roads and less bullied, I am more aware of other dangers on the road – or rather, give more attention to different bad driving habits. Using cell phones while driving. Although social media has…

  • One Less Car

    Everything tends to happen for a reason in life and it generally isn’t until after the fact that we come to understand just what that or those reasons are exactly. Back in May, I bought my ‘new’ LR2 and put my beloved Daihatsu up for sale. I put it on the market for a fairly…

  • Week 2 Down

    Today has been a day of total rest. I even took a nap! Somehow this past week was jam-packed and for me that is never a very good thing as I need down time to recuperate. So, I will try this weekend to also layout a schedule that will work for me on a regular…
