Creative Meanderings

Wow, it’s been a rough few weeks…. Aside from my personal life dramas, I took on a book to summarize in late December and it kicked my arse. I thought it would take me two weeks, but three weeks later and barely within the deadline I finally got rid of it. I will do some make-up posting later of these books, but for now I’m just happy to be free of that. Hopefully,…

For a while I have been following this website, Mind Body Green,  on FB, thanks to my friend P. Most of the articles are very interesting and are featured in the different categories – your mental health, your physical health and your eating health. They keep you interested by recycling the same posts now and then with different titles. My crazy yoga teacher said something interestingly true last night. We know how to…

I hardly realized that so much time had passed, when my BFF wrote to check if I was okay after having missed a number of days blogging. At first, I just told myself that life had picked up speed as it is wont to do now and then. (Btw, don’t you love the word, wont?! 😉 ) Anyway, I seemed like I was happy doing my freelance writing and I was being busy.…

This topic hit me last night as I was trying to make guacamole with some very bad avocados – it didn’t turn out. However, I had three avocados in a bowl that was just the right size once they were mashed up and the rest of the guac ingredients. R asked if I needed a bigger bowl. I explained no that it was just right. To which he responded that my booby trapping…

Yesterday I was thinking about this word. What does it really mean and does it really exist? As I was talking to friends about my situation with R, we described it as being in limbo. Is it true? One definition that suits the use is: “an uncertain period of awaiting a decision or resolution; an intermediate state or condition.” Yet, I’m not sure this is entirely accurate. I am indeed waiting for my…

It’s time to put my reflections and revisions into a concrete public form. This will maybe keep me accountable! Ha. As I don’t like to call my new resolutions as New Year’s resolutions, I am calling them long and short term goals for this upcoming year. I know, it’s the same thing in the end, but semantics are important to me. I’m a language nerd after all! 😀 So, here we go! Long-term…

Back during my life coaching sessions, I talked about how writing has been a dream for me since I was eight. I knew back then that power of words and wanted so much to share my stories with the world. I am not an eloquent speaker. I am not overly charismatic. However, I think I can write. I think I can create enough for a reader to engage in a story. In any…
