A colleague sent an e-mail discussing the recent shooting in Orlando where 30 people were killed and revealed that her niece worked at the company where it took place.

I have a good friend who recently shared some insecurity around her driving abilities. Last week, while on our way to a movie, she remarked that her father, among others, have always criticized her driving, and although I wouldn’t label her a bad driver, apparently that’s what she considers herself to be.

I felt paralyzed yesterday. I didn’t know what was causing it, but I knew that sitting at the computer pretending I was accomplishing anything besides lurking on Facebook was ridiculous. Fortunately, I’ve learned that the quickest way to transcend any state is to be in it. With my ego screaming, “You have so much to [...]

If you saw someone standing in the garden criticizing a tiny tomato sprout because it didn’t have any tomatoes on it yet, you’d think she was insane. Right? And yet we do it all the time – instead of rejoicing in the small signs of growth in our lives, we get frustrated and impatient that [...]

I have been the queen of “To-Do” lists for a long time, jotting down every tiny thing that needs to be done – from work tasks to emptying the dishwasher. I’ve even been known to add things that I’ve already done just so I can cross them off.

My friend Joyce experienced a bout of sciatica last week. The day I found out, I asked her what she needed and rearranged my day so I could take some supplies and medicine to her. I called the next morning to see how she was feeling and realized that lately, when I call it’s to [...]

For years, I’ve heard people complain about how much work a pool is, and they’re right – it is a lot of work. But there’s nothing like diving into the deep end on a hot Florida summer night and staring at the moon while you float on your back.

Peacefully unconscious in a blissful sleep, I was yanked violently awake by the sound of helicopters circling overhead. It seemed as if they would descend through the roof at any moment – engines gunning, blades whirling. Exhausted, I tried to ignore them but found it impossible.
