Random rantings of the misfit kind.
Every single year, around December 31st (give or take a few days), many of us begin to think about what we've accomplished that year, and what we want to do the following year. Some people set resolutions (I've written a post about that in the past), others abhor the thought of resolutions and "resolve" to... Continue Reading →
Every year around this time, many people begin reflecting on the people, opportunities, and things that they are grateful for. We reflect on the situations and obstacles that got us to the point we're at today, and for most, there is an overwhelming spirit of gratitude and appreciation. Although I've been a little MIA on...

Very recently, someone close to me lost someone they loved. It is still so new, so raw, so painful. It was something that happened in such a sudden fashion that it still feels so very unreal. This sort of loss is one that leaves you in a daze, confused, unsure of where reality starts and... Continue Reading →
First off, Happy New Year and thank you all for sticking with me all of these years! I truly appreciate all of you that have read, commented, liked, and shared my posts since this blog's inception. I am extremely grateful for all of the support! I've been in a bit of a slump these past... Continue Reading →
I was listening to Oprah's SuperSoul Conversations podcast the other morning, and this one featured Pastor Wintley Phipps. This one in particular was about becoming the person you were created to be, and it was definitely a good listen.

Who doesn't love Saturdays? The sleeping in, the laziness. Many of us spend our entire weeks just waiting for this day, refusing to put any positivity into the other days of the week in the process. We literally wish away our days, praying that Saturday will reach us quickly. Just think for a moment on... Continue Reading →
What do you do with a dormant blog? You pick it up, dust it off, and start writing again. Even when you've been stuck in what seems like the longest writer's block in your life. Or, if you're like me, stuck in a situation where your best ideas come to you in the middle of... Continue Reading →
Oh, to be a Millennial. Which of course, I barely know anything about. I'm literally on the cusp of the Millennial movement, stuck in between the end of Gen X and the first year of the Millennial generation. Early 80's babies, we don't really connect with those who were born in the 70's, and we... Continue Reading →
A couple of weeks ago I participated in an awesome event in CT, the 4th Annual Phenomenal Women Panel. I was blessed to sit among three other phenomenal women, as we each shared our stories of how we came to be the women we are today. It's always amazing when you decide to open up...

If someone told you, right now, to write a bio about yourself, what would you say? Would you list out your accomplishments? The jobs you've held? The places you've been? Or would you talk about where you grew up, the colleges you went to, and the degrees you've earned? You probably wouldn't talk about the... Continue Reading →
