I did it. I approached her and quickly said we should get together some time and she responded “We should”. I walked away with mixed emotions about her response. Was she being sincere or was she just being polite to me? See, this is what anxiety will do to you if you allow it to… Continue reading She Said Yes

What If I Say Yes
Anyone who knows me knows I love to read. I come from a family of readers. Seriously, I don’t know anyone in my family who doesn’t read. One of my favorite childhood memories is my mom and I visiting a local used book store on Saturday mornings. It was the coolest place because you could… Continue reading What If I Say Yes
Builder or Destroyer
I have one question for you. Are you a builder or a destroyer? Every day each one of us has the power to build somebody up or to destroy them. Our tongues and actions are so powerful.

Everyone is entitled to have a rough day, well today is my day. Yes, I know the day hasn't even started but I'm feeling pretty blue. The holidays tend to do that to me. They remind me of the distance between me and the people I most care about. I'm not saying that I don't… Continue reading Your Core
The 3 Fs of Friendship
Had the best time out this weekend with a friend. Yes I actually said friend. I'm learning to use that word sparingly. Not everyone is deserving of that word. I consider her to be a friend because I genuinely believe she is concerned about my well-being and I am certainly concerned about her as well. We… Continue reading The 3 Fs of Friendship
