Friends Are Chosen Family
With the holidays almost over, for many of us, we’ve dealt with some of the ups and downs of seeing family. Perhaps speaking to family that you haven’t seen in a few months or maybe even over the past year. No matter how ever long that it has been, we find that it’s the holidays…
Under the Mistletoe
From November through January, there is a whirlwind of holidays that seem to come fast. Holiday stress of seeing family that you haven’t seen all year, on top of the yearly time shopping for gifts, it feels like in a blink of an eye we’re back into February. Where did it all go? If you…
The Holiday Tale
This time of year can be one of the most difficult times of year. I’m not sure if it’s the holidays coming up. Or if it’s the fact that so many holidays come one right after the other. From Thanksgiving, Hanukah, Christmas, to New Years; I find that we come most in contact with the…
Happy and You Know It, Clap Your Hands

When we choose our relationships, I have to ask myself what it is that I’m exactly looking for in a person. There are many sayings to relationships, ‘opposites attract’ or ‘birds of a feather flock together.’ We could spend countless hours thinking up the perfect saying, but what about thinking up who is right for…
Starting Over…Yet Again
One of the more difficult parts of relationships is having to start over. The words are there, we are ready to begin life with a new person, but our actions speak a completely different language to the dating world. There’s this imaginary wall that we build that says ‘starting over yet again…just not now.’ We…
E-Relationships
Society has become more and reliant on the use of technology. Perhaps five or ten years ago we wouldn’t have written blogs or even shopped online. However, the more we look to advancing technology the more distant we become with one another. Sure technology has its advances, but let’s really look at how much even our…
