He Died In The Palm Of My Hands

I wrote about my husband finding then little bunny the other day. I called Grant this morning. I’m on the ferry going to my last day at school, and he’s on the way to see the dentist.

I ask him, “How are you?.” He says the little bunny died in his hands this morning.” He’ll bury him when he gets home. He’s never had to bury an animal at the farm. He’s sad. I’m sad. But I’m also glad I wrote about this little bunny so I can remember her always. She gave me joy, love & happiness the brief time I knew her. ~ Beth Lord

Make Your Dreams Happen

 

It is Thursday night. I came home from school after a full day and went to bed for an hour;  my cat is sleeping on my arm. The sunlight is shining through on this gorgeous spring day.

I am doing a lot to make my dreams happen. Making this vision into reality requires me to self-care, so I don't burn out.

I have a sub-section meeting with a group I belong to - NW Ladies In Business.  I drag my weary-ass from the bed, feed the animals, grab some food as a snack to bring to the meeting. I am going. I am showing up to me and gathering community support.

Can You Find The Buried Treasure?

Top Talent, Vaughn Lowery pulled up out of his impoverished neighborhood in Detroit, had the opportunity to accelerate in Advanced Placement Classes in high school and received scholarships from University of Michigan and Cornell. He chose Cornell.

We finished the final recording session yesterday before he went to S. Africa for a few weeks for his business.

He is a top model, top talent in modeling, commercials, and acting. He had a glamour, glitzy life and he has had un Read More

What If Our Future Is Only Tomorrow?

It’s a great question to ask because none of us knows when our time is going to happen when we get off this earth planet. And I don’t mean like an astronaut. I am talking death.

This question may leave us a little bit uncomfortable, but if we realize and can accept that our mind and body are going to die, we may create more opportunities to live life in a fuller way.

  Ask yourself the following questions:

  - Are you satisfied with life?

Will You?

My brother-in-law had his leg removed above the knee and is in the hospital. He was married to my sister who passed away at the end of January 2016. He never regained his momentum or his desire to live because Linda was his anchor. They live in Ohio. I tried to keep in touch with him, but when someone moves and someone doesn’t respond to your phone calls or emails, you have to “let go.”  So last week, his niece posted what has been happening to him. Jim was very sick but would not go to see the Doctor. Finally, Trista coaxed him to go. He was immediately admitted to the hospital because his leg was purple and was not receiving any circulation in this area. Doctors gave him drugs, and that didn’t help. Jim wa Read More
