I Stand in Love
I made a mistake a long time ago, one that I believe is common for many people: I fell in love. Although falling in love is great in concept, it means something that I don’t think many people give a lot of thought. When you are falling in love, that suggests a dependency on the other person. Your love for that person is so strong that it makes you fall to the ground. You need that person to hold you up and bolster you.

Longevity Does Not Equal Security
I used to think that there was security in longevity.

Lastly, if the man in your life says he loves you, but doesn’t show his love, then you deserve more than that. Read More >>

People say ignorance is bliss, but I don’t believe that for a second. Ignorance is sticking your head in the sand and pretending like the world isn’t moving around you. Ignorance is fantasy, a denial of truth, and general lack of acknowledgment of that which is real.
Ignorance allows people to be cold, callous, and devoid of feeling.
Moms need to put their oxygen mask on before assisting others. If we don’t take care of ourselves, we can’t possibly serve our children, family, and friends. I have forgotten this important piece of advice countless times and it has left me depressed and unable to carry out my daily functions with any energy. Sometimes it’s hard to be there 100%. It is hard to be the Pinterest -perfect mom.
We as people are starved, depraved of empathy these days. There is a desperate need for connection in this world. We need casual and deep conversations. It is a desert out there.
