The older we get, it's imperative that we keep our brains active and stimulated! Refuse to allow yourself to settle into a mental and physical rut.. Be adventurous! Try new things, be open to learning about unfamiliar concepts, explore ideas and beliefs that differ from your own. The important thing is to constantly challenge yourself, …
Clarity in the 40’s
When I approached 40, I had mixed emotions; I believed at that point I would then be officially a "Grown Woman" and all that 40 entails... like gray hair popping up uninvited, being considered "middle age" by folks in their 20's & 30's, your body acting all funny style and feeling some kind of strange …
Today is a New Day!
Have you ever had moments where you felt a little out of sorts? Where you couldn't necessarily pinpoint one particular thing or reason, but you felt, in your spirit, that perhaps something was just a tad bit off?

Get rid of the clutter in your life
Life is precious. It's not promised, and at times can be quite unpredictable. What I've learned is that some of the greatest moments in your life won’t necessarily be the things that you do; they will be the things that happen to you.
