I just realized that I am looking foreword to tomorrow. There is nothing special planned for tomorrow, nothing to set it apart from any other day. But... that just made this realization all that much more powerful.  I have a life I am actually looking foreword to. No matter the off days I might have, majority rules...I am H A P P Y.   It wasnt but months ago I was crying myself to sleep at night and dreading the tomorrows. Always worried about how I was going to wake up and sometimes IF I was going to wake up.  Read more >

The last few days I had been playing word games in my head trying to write poems and in my book projects. I’ve cried more in the last few days that I have in three months. I think it is time to acknowledge what is really going on so I can move on. If these grey clouds aren’t going to move... then I need to.  Read more >

I am in the process of opening a help and resource center for victims of domestic violence. This is my link explaining the project, what its about and whats needed to bring my vision alive. even if you are not in the position to help the cause.... please copy and paste the link, thats helping. Spreading the word is bringing forth awareness. Im praying eventually this post will end up on the right screen and someone else will come foreword wanting and/or capable of making a difference. I am taking one step at a time doing my part.  Read more >

when Love Hurts   "I did not fall in love with a man that abused me. Like most people in abusive relationships, I fell in love with someone who had many wonderful qualities. I fell in love with someone who had a hidden abuser mentality. He was a man I adore...d, respected, believed in and trusted."................. ..."Life within an abusive relationship is just that.  Read more >

About Me: 

I will be turning 40 soon and have come to the conclusion ...Im not afraid. In fact Im eager for the starting line and preparing myself for the challenges ahead. Ive come to the conclusion in recent months that the only mountain standing between me and everything I want, things I dream of... is me. Its simple. well not really... because I have come to terms with the fact I need to come to terms. The running from self has to stop and its time to face all those fears and the cold darkness that probably isnt nearly as fearful, cold or dark as the three and a half year relationship I got out of  not long ago. This is me stepping foreward to do what I need to do for Jen. Mending my heart, spirit, mind and body.  In the last year the lines under my eyes  look more like a road map proving where Ive been.    The gypsy soul I have loves to travel, see, learn,experience and live... the last three years of my life I feel Ive been caged and whithering away. I have 100 pounds I want to get off of my body  and keep off.  I have a life Im eager to start living. A different life consisting of freedom, dreams, and smiling from the inside out.... and oh!  yes! becoming a published and successful writer and photographer. Im here because Im hoping to build a network and  create friendships a long the way.
