I am an aging woman with a need to write about those things that interest me. I may write about personal experiences but the process of writing and doing research is very rewarding too.

An Interesting Fact
I truly believe that we make our own reality and have nothing to fear if we are positive in our approach to life.

Our Karma or energy and how we use it will determine what our destiny is.Several people commented that they not only believe in Karma they also believe in Fate. Fate is that other side of karma...the side that is not in our control and has things happen totally by accident. R... Read Full Story
Three Word WednesdayKarmaObeyWitherKarma is the belief that the effects of a person's actions can determine his/her destiny. Yesterday I wrote about living a life of intention. Rather than wandering about with the idea that "what will be will be" could it be that we can take certain actions that will change the way we feel, the way we react to situation and in fact might actually have more control over our lives? Do you believe that...do you believe we can change outcomes by doing things i... Read Full Story
Yes my dear comment friends, we are going to have another grandchild at the end of February. A little boy will grace our family. On this day I wish that every child that were born into this world could be greeted with aunts, uncles, cousins and grandparents that were willing to love them like our new baby Brysen will be. We all intend to raise our children together...a village of sorts.I might also add that I have decided to pray for those young and old people at war no matter their religi... Read Full Story

I am guilty of choosing books based on prizes given for the best of the best. A National Book Award or a Pulitzer Prize winner will get my attention and my favorite book store of all, Powell's, in Portland Oregon has a whole section devoted to just the prize winners. So this winter when my husband and I left... Read Full Story
Saturday, October 31, 2009 #187 - Adventure Setting out on an adventure is one thing...planning on climbing a very high mountain? Pack your gear, plot your course, invite a friend, check the weather and tell everyone where you are going. You are setting out on a BIG adventure.We, on the other hand, have never really SET OUT to go on an adventure. An adventure is what happens to us on our way to do whatever we had actually planned to do. My husband and I always feel a litt... Read Full Story
Note: This is a post I wrote for IIIWW. The mobile home is real and we do have it for sale. Vintage Mobile home looks likethis inside only less furniture. 1964Today my husband and I went to see a mobile home we received as a small part of the value in a trade for our motor home. The idea that we would be able to use the mobile home somehow had been incubating in our head for a few weeks. We had hoped that it would be kind of okay so we could salvage our vanity and at least not inherit a n... Read Full Story
Let’s go over the rules, shall we? Each week, I post some words. People write things using the words. Then they comment here. IncubateNightmareVanity Our prompter sounded just a little cross this morning...Let's go over the rules. I certainly can understand IIIWW frustration with comments written in Korean that no one that posts on this site can read or spammers using this forum for advertising. It makes me a little cranky too. I do want our prompters to know how grateful we are for the... Read Full Story
