Don’t let all the things you need to do get in the way of all that you’re able to get done. Instead of worrying that it won’t all get finished, get busy doing it.
Do yourself a big favor and put yourself into action. Even if you don’t get it all done today, you can certainly […]

It was not only in the reflection of a computer screen that I could finally face the MoNster but I also found a best friend. It began in an MS chat room where we all had many things in common and often talked of what issues we were dealing with or just what […]

I can’t give solutions to all
of life’s problems, doubts, or fears.
But I can listen to you, and together
we will search for answers.
I can’t change your past with
all its heartache and pain,
nor the future with
its untold stories.
But I can be there now
when you need me to care.
I can’t keep your
feet from stumbling.
I can only offer my […]

To Sallie, Anne, and Vickie especially but also to everyone else who stops by we all have a new set of days to work with— time to learn new ideas, experience new feelings, and give in new ways to all those with whom we share. Time continues to do its thing and move ever […]

With hopes and dreams as true and high as mine. […]

We are the decent people of the world.
We are in the majority, for men and women are essentially decent.
We live in all nations, we live under all the flags that fly.
Decency is not determined by our economic status, our religion, the language we speak, the color of our skin, or the ideology under which […]

Facing the Future
Every journey begins
With but a small step.
And every day is a chance
For a new, small step
In the right direction.
Just follow your Heartsong.
On Growing Up
We are growing up
We are many colors of skin
We are many languages
We are many ages and sizes.
We are many countries…
But we are one with the earth.
We each have one […]

We all have heard you can learn so much from children, this was one child that I fell in love with and learned so much from. No by no means did we suffer the same disease so please DO NOT make the mistake and think that, for many people do think that. He […]
