Turning Pages of Life
Life’s like a book — some parts are good, others not so much. Still, keep turning the pages; you might find the best chapter next. If someone hurts you, choose to forgive or just let it be, but never change who you are for them.

Playing Musical Chairs
Many of us can relate to the childhood game of musical chairs. The objective of the game is to find a seat among the chairs laid out in the room before the music finishes. The loser of the game is left standing and excluded from other rounds of the game.

My To Be Read List
I have been taking some time away from writing. I haven't forgotten about Vocal, the truth is I just have been too busy pursuing other things to write online and honestly, my little family and I just had a really hard month between the flu and a weird eye infection/cold circulating our house. I'm currently sipping some warm peppermint tea because my throat is sore.

Yes! Cathy, THIS is fantastic! Picture or in person, you never know the story behind the smile. I’ve smiled many times when all I wanted to do was cry. 💞
Ooooo, good question, Cathy! Now, my question is; Is it directed at this one, or portrait photos in general? I think it could go eiher way.

Ooh, this is do much how I feel about my kids' school photos.

There does seem to be something a bit artificial in her expression, doesn't there?
That permanent lie hit me so hard. Not everything stay the same. People change. Hence, they become the permanent lie. This was so poignant! I loved it!
