We as people sometimes let our feelings run the show. When we feel happy we actively go about life with glee and enthusiasm. When we feel angry we change the vibe of the atmosphere around us. When we feel hurt we withdraw and repel all good and wonderful things...
My daughter had a quick temper. She would go from easy breezy to blowing a fuse in seconds. This bothered us as her parents. But I could recall times even when she was a baby that she would bully her brothers. We thought, “it’s her being the...
I am a writer but new to blogging. Well, let me take that back. I started blogging, irregularly years ago. However, a few months ago I committed to blogging at least three times a week. I thought this will be easy. I write often. I love to write. But...
