Give Yourself Time_Healing has a lot of ups and downs.
Healing is a gradual process
filled with ups & downs.
There is no timetable for healing.“
My Dad died several years ago. I was sad, but not overwhelmed with sadness because I watched him for so long dying of cancer. He was not able to do the things he loved to do, and I have to say he loved life. He enjoyed everything. He was always laughing and smiling. He never complained. When he was close to dying, he was ready to go. We had many talks about what a great life it has been and how our family had so many wonderful memories. We were very lucky indeed.
The healing process is a funny thing. For me, the third year seemed to be the hardest. Hard to believe that someone who was a big part of my life for so long is gone. There will always be ups and downs. I am working it through by trying to concentrate on the good times. Can’t help but be reminded of the Dr. Seuss saying: “Don’t cry because it’s over, smile because it happened.” I was certainly blessed to have a Dad who taught me to love life and to keep smiling.
Thanks Dad! ♥

Illuminated By The Light_Happy Birthday
Let your light shine bright.
Share that light with the world.“
Life is going by so fast. We live in a pretty amazing time. I long for the simplicity of the past but I have to admit the world of technology has so much to offer. I am hooked on a computer program called Adobe Illustrator for my art. Udemy offers all of the classes I need at a very affordable price. I love being able to check out books from the library online and be able to read them immediately. I can search Youtube or the web to learn how to start a yoga routine, how to doodle, how to paint in watercolors, or even learn a foreign language. I can watch movies instantly using Netflix. What an amazing time to be alive.
The last few years I have spent time creating a line of Greeting Cards for women titled “Peace of Mind/Pass It On”. I am hoping women will use the cards to inspire, support, connect, & encourage each other. I would love to make a profit to be used to help other women & children in some way. So the idea is this: Women helping women, helping women.
My advice to you is this, change your perspective. Stop concentrating on what you are losing in the aging process and start concentrating on all of the things that you are able to do. Figure out something that you would love to do and just get started! So many choices and so little time.

Get Centered…
“Practice well-being.
Take 5 minutes every morning
to get centered.“
Always too much to do and never enough time. I am trying to make it a habit to stop several times a day, just for a few minutes (and maybe just a few seconds) to pause & take the time to breathe deeply. I place my hands on my stomach and feel the rise and fall as I breathe. Thinking about the rise and fall takes my mind away from all the things I need to do. You don’t have to be on one leg in a yoga pose to breathe, but it could be a goal. Balance and deep breathing..go for it!
“An interval of meditation, serious and grateful, was the best corrective of everything dangerous.”
~Jane Austen
