The Settler
Are you a settler? What have you bargained God to give you that is not the best thing, and not the worst either? Maybe you have waited years to own a home, and because you’re still renting and not buying, you’ve decided to settle for a nice apartment, because it’s about as close as you’re […]

Backstage to Centerstage
Do you know what it’s like to do all the work, and you standby watching, as someone else gets all the credit? Maybe you have been hard at work, putting in overtime to be seen and promoted, only to keep being overlooked and overshadowed? It can be extremely frustrating and disappointing to give your all, […]

You promised
I am exhausted! I know I just came off of vacation, so before you judge, I’ve been hitting the ground running hard, ever since I came back. My workload has increased, but I most definitely enjoy the busy work. I’ve been struggling going to bed at a decent time, and very often I’ve managed to […]

Watch me
I’m not going to lie, as much as I value and love my privacy, I low key want to be on tv, but not just for anything. I want my own show, on my own network, and more than anything, I want to appear on Ted Talks. For a couple of years now, that’s been […]

Upgrade your plan
From time to time, I’ll receive a text message from my phone service provider, offering me the ability to upgrade my phone plan. I always decline, because there’s nothing appealing or interesting about it, let alone beneficial. Because I’ve been such a loyal customer and always pay on time, I assume they are doing whatever […]

Positioned for the position
Sometimes it’s best not to gripe and complain about our situation, because more times than often, God is using that position to get us ready for the next one. I work in higher education and have done so for the past 13+ years. Loving what I do is a complete understatement, as I’ve never been […]

Change course
When I was working on my Bachelors degree, many years ago, there was one class I made certain to avoid; Research Methods. Whenever I’d meet with my Academic Advisor, she would always stress to me that I needed to take that class right away, because it was one of my most difficult ones, and would […]

Extended lunch
Great Morning NOTE takers! Vacationing is a job in and of itself, so I decided to take an extended lunch today to enjoy my life and family. Tell the boss don’t be too upset, and I’ll be back before you know it. Oh wait; I am the boss! Take vacations, and do so often. Whether […]

Recover
The past year and a half hasn’t been easy on me. I have experienced pain and difficulties like no other, but I can finally say, I’m beginning to recover. I have a new career (beside writing) that I absolutely love and enjoy, and I can tell I’m going to be at it for awhile. Not […]

55 years
Today I attended a medical symposium, and was blown away by the wealth of information received. No, I’m not switching professions, but my current one does involve me working with animal healthcare professionals quite often. While in one of the sessions, one of the Veterinarians was sharing a story on what prompted her to pursue […]
