His Light & Love Carries Me Through

On Thursday, August 13th, 2020 the school year officially began. Me, a teacher, new challenges, many changes, what a way to start. On August 14th, we had a full day of Zoom training. So much to learn, to know, process, take in (I knew I would grow). Overwhelmed, to say the least, was how I …

You’re Beautiful

Sometimes Life Catches us Off-guard   A word A phrase A message   Forever A life Can change   Words spoken I Was so Surprised   To Be told Something Magnificent   “You’re so beautiful!”   (I could have cried.)   As You can imagine I Had to pause Catch My breath   The kindness …

Ticket to Freedom

On Tuesday, January 7th, 2020, I purchased my ticket to freedom. After a heartfelt conversation with my potential Christian Women’s Life Coach, Mukkove and thoughtful reflections throughout the day, well into the evening, there was no doubt this is where God was leading me. This is exactly where he needed me to be. I listened …

A Resurrection Reflection…

I know this thought may seem far-fetched, maybe even crazy, but I am going to share this with you anyway. Today is Easter. Our Lord, Jesus Christ, His Resurrection. My mind was still. My heart at peace. I started writing down a list of things to work on in my coming days. Starting with the …

Love Yourself…Be Your Best Friend!

For most of my life I have been challenged in my own life and mindset to see all the good things that make me who I am this day. To love myself seemed so selfish as loving other people came so much more easily. My focus was extremely clouded! Me? A beautiful person? (as I …

Life Happens…

Last night, I felt so exhausted. The events of my day just led me to fatigue. As much as I wanted to write, I just couldn’t and waited until this morning. There are days, when I am reminded of exactly the reasons why I love doing what I do, being a Preschool Special Education Teacher. …

Take Time to Get to Know Me: Working With Children With Special Needs

Once upon a time, there was a first-year teacher. She was nervous, she was happy, she was eager, she was confused…many things all bottled up inside not knowing what to expect. Feeling overwhelmed, she questioned herself and her abilities in teaching children with special needs. That first-year teacher is me. At one time, I didn’t …

Live a Life of Love

For far too many years than I wish to count or admit, I told myself how bad of a person I was. I felt like such a failure. I felt as if I wasn’t good enough, nor did I do things right. I revisited the “mistakes” of my past. Like pressing rewind and play, this …

Dear Universe,

9.15.2019 Dear Universe, I am writing to you today as I would any of my friends. I know I don’t usually ask my friends for very much, only to be true in their hearts and spirit and do as they say they will, uphold their integrity. No tall orders, just some things I would consider …

Intrinsically Driven

Not everything is handed over on a silver platter. We need to work hard and prioritize to accomplish our goals, live out our dreams. Have a purpose? Have a passion? What’s your mission? I am working on all of that. I have visions, things I want to pursue in life. What am I missing? A …

Perceived, Preconceived, Proceeded Unknowingly

I know how it feels to be emotionally attached to someone, not wanting to let go. The feelings, the emotions, the thought of them can seem so real. There are people who come into our own lives. We start having this hopes, dreams, visions of what we hope to see, be conceived and born into …

One Step at a Time

Time can, and, does change everything. Moments for pause and reflection, seeing what’s important in life. Healing takes place, allowing us to see things for what they truly are. Perceptions in life, no longer the same. A different person, a different mentality. How can one be so blind to the reality of life? We all, …

Mid-Life Mysteries

How is it, I ask myself, that some women can breeze right through mid-life, the perimenopausal phase without experiencing any significant changes in the body, the mind, physiologically? Emotions, behaviors, memory, physical and psychological changes in the body, all of which have impacted me, continue to impact me to this day. I have some time …
