Quit Wasting Time

Finish this sentence. "Life is short..."

 "...quit wasting time on things that don't fill your soul."

Soled With Sass

Talk about your favorite pair of shoes and why you love them so much.   Hold on one second.  I have to choose ONE pair of favorite shoes.  One?  Look, it's not like I'm all Carrie Bradshaw about shoes... but sometimes I'm a little Carrie Bradshaw about boots. Shoes are shoes.  But boots... boots make the girl.  I'm going to be right back.  Wait here.  I have to show you something so you understand. (enter 15 minute time lapse here) Okay - I'm back, let's clarify. These are the boots I have in the house.  These are the boots I have out in the garage. I swear, every single pair has a story.  New boots are always welcome, and I am always sad when I decide to give up a pair boots.  The struggle is real. A select few of you may notice the red ones are gone.  It's true.  It was hard.  Let me tell the rest of you about the red boots.  I got them when I was 17.  They were $98.00 and t...

Scratch and Sniff Memories

Seriously - I couldn't make this stuff up if I tried... Create ten all-new funny scratch and sniff stickers. Describe the image and smell.  Close your eyes.  Take a deep breath.  Think of the thing that makes you smile when you smell it.  What was is?  Our senses are an amazing part of our human make-up aren't they?  But the sense of smell - it's different.  The olfactory sense connects with our memory, and can create a picture for us to see, and feel our feels, and hear things we've stored.  I once worked with a man who had lost his sense of smell, and in that, lost his sense of taste.  I was immediately saddened for him.  What a terrible thing to not be able to smell... Think of all the things you'd miss.  When I sat down to write this, I had actually misread the topic entirely - more than once.  I entirely missed the word "funny", and I sat, connecting myself to all the things that I would have missed if I lost my sense ...

On a Mission

Outline a "mission statement" for you life.  I've said a thousand times over.  "When I get to the end of my days, my hope is for someone (hopefully more than one someone) to say 'I am different because of her.  She had an affect on me and how I live'".  That is truly my mission.  Making a positive difference in someone's life. I have always been an advocate for things I am passionate about.  It comes naturally to me to be kind to other humans.  I try, on a daily basis to reach people, and sometimes that means tying a knot at the end of their rope so they can have something to hang on to.  That's why I write. It's why I always want to do more - help more, see more, do more. I write things for people in order to touch their soul.  Maybe it's something I've been through, worked through, trudged through.  Maybe it's something that gives me joy.  Maybe I had a need to share my tears, and my longings with someone who might unders...
