Do it, own it, live it #WW

Happy Wednesday! Here, it’s a happy rainy day, hopefully where you are, it’s sunny and nice out. Not too cold, not too warm, you know the drill…One of these days where you don’t have to sit in an office, and can lounge and do whatever you feel like doing. Writing was my favorite thing to…

When dreams die (and when they resuscitate)

“Resurrection of Dead Dreams” is actually the title of a book that belongs to a series authored by a dear friend who’s been through a lot physically, emotionally and spiritually.

Note to Self (230) Les Miserables

Oh boy, I haven’t cried watching a movie in so long. This was truly the most amazing piece of art I’ve seen in quite a long time. I grew up reading and studying the work of Victor Hugo – truly the most amazing author who will remain at the top of my list forever –…
