A Change
Our brain is who we are. It is a thing, compiled of other things. A thing so intricate that it takes a fairly large portion of a person's life to truly understand how the big lump thing works. It is a puzzle, with each piece personifying aspects of our entirety. But yet, if you were to slice it open, it would look like a wet, crumbled ham. (Really? we depend on a wet, crumbled ham to function?)

Do You Value Yourself Enough To Face Fear?
During my married life there were times I would step back and think to myself, is making an issue out of this going to make things better or worse? So out of fear of the unknown I would choose not to listen to my own value and instead keep a happy home. Equally I would do this in other areas of my life too.

The Power of "Yes"
The word "yes" is defined by Merriam-Webster as a function word used to express assent or agreement--but beyond this superficial definition and meaning, what sort of connotations do you think of? Personally, "yes" gives me positive, adventurous, and actionable connotations.

Healthy Habits: Body + Mind
Over the course of this pandemic, I’ve been able to spend some time refocusing on things that are important to me, now that I found myself having more time for leisure than I have had in quite a few years. I have picked up multiple hobbies and pass times, but something I really wanted to focus on was getting my health- physically and mentally- in a better place than it currently was. Not that I wasn’t healthy previously, but I wanted to finally spend time fine tuning my body and mind. I also figure that if I can form healthy habits while I have the time to truly decompress my mind and evaluate my choices, it’ll be easy to stick to them by the time life goes back to “normal.” (Whenever that may be..)

We have a Choice in Despair
You have choice. It might not feel like it right now, when you feel in such despair, but you do. The wonderful Nelson Mandela really captured that sense of freedom in choice we all have when he said: "Even behind prison walls, I can see the heavy clouds and the blue sky over the horizon."

Seen it all
I've seen it all. I've seen every society on Earth. I am a 15,000 year old barn owl. I don't have a name, and I never will. I've never seen a need for them anyway. Ever since my birth, I've seen the evolution of humanity. I've seen the taming of the horse to the invention of the smartphone. I've seen countless wars, the making of the silk road, the egyptian monarchy, and everything else. It's both a blessing and a curse that my body has managed to see this day. It's all going downhill from where I see it, and I've seen it all anyway.

The Best Advice I Can Give About Self-Love
Hey guys! let's talk about Love. Not only love of any kind, but one of the most important types of love, aka self-love. Earlier this week, I saw Lucille Ball's quote: "Love yourself first and get everyone else in line. To get anything in this world you really have to love yourself. " can I get an amen?! But seriously, I love that dialect. Sometimes it is so easy to pour our love into others, without realizing that we are not feeding ourselves the same love. One thing I have learned over the years is that self-love is something that I have to practice every day in every way. The moment I started practicing the art of self-love was the moment when I started imaginatively receiving love in every form in my life.

Practicing Generosity When Times are Hard
I really shouldn't call him the rap for food guy his name is Anthony. I used to see him a few times a week when I was on my way to work or taking my children to school downtown. When I saw him, he was on the corner of 55th and Kinsman.

Cutting The Ties That Bind
A young boy and his father attended a kite festival one evening. Upon arriving, the boy was in awe of all the beautiful kites floating about in the air. There must've been at least 50 kites being flown by their owners, each one different and significant in its own way; some flying lower, moving to the left and then swooping toward the right and some flying high in the sky, slow and steady.
