Playing ‘the telephone game’ when you were younger was sooo much fun. What made it great was that there were those few people that would purposely create some new crazy phrase, and pass that one along instead of the one that was originally started. Then at the very end, everyone that participated would get a [...]

I believe we are all connected in some way. Every single person in this world may not know each other, but yet we are all still connected. Whether it’s someone from your past, someone you presently know, someone in your future you are yet to meet, or even someone you will never know, there are [...]

As my own year and experiences of 2009 came to an end, I drafted a list of everything (good AND bad) that happened during my year. A few days ago I was looking back on my year, and thinking, ‘Wow, I’ve had a really crummy year. I can think of more times I have been [...]
I’m wiping the dust off, and getting back on this thing! I have a new blog up already titled, “Thankful for giving.” I also have some new quotes on the quotes page. The new ones are in bold. I will start putting up more blogs for the rest of this year, and more in the [...]
This blog may be a little belated, seeing as how Thanksgiving was a week ago, but to me Thanksgiving is every single day. (well, minus the big feast ;)) I’m sure many of you went around the table and said what you were thankful for. Why can’t this be something that we can encompass more [...]
