As I complete my Christmas list, I wanted to share with you some thoughts on how to cope if you are the conductor of your family’s orchestra (code name for Mother). With only 14 days before Christmas, many of you have not completed your shopping, baking, volunteering or whatever else is part of your holiday [...]

To get to a certain age as I have, I’ve had many many teachers. It is time to acknowledge their contribution to who I am. We are guided by many hands and hearts along the way. We can learn by both positive and negative experiences. What to do and what not to do.

I have become disturbingly aware that we spend an inordinate amount of time criticizing something or someone or for that matter yourselves.
Have you been to church and on the steps some women are criticizing the wardrobe of some of the other women? I know you have and if you don’t go to church, you do [...]

I have a dear friend whom I love with all my heart. Last year was not a good year. He broke up with his long time girlfriend (thank God), his business he was running was not flourishing due to the economy and the apartment building he lived in didn’t even have heat at one point [...]
