I came to think about what it really meant to have a soulmate. I’m not one that believes that there is just one single person out there, but many if we allow ourselves.

Sometimes I think about my own life and realize as I’m getting older in age the idea of being alone can be difficult. Let’s face it. We come into this world young and for many, we leave much older in our lives. Many questions come up. Questions as to who will care for us as…
The Right Recipe
Last night, after much of my energy just wouldn’t stop, I sat down and turned on the T.V. Flipping through the channels I came across the movie Julia & Julia, the story of a young writer who writes a blog while making every dish of Julia Child’s recipes. It’s been a lot time, but I…
Before Saying ‘I Do’
Relationships are a lot like icy road conditions. You go out and take your chance and you hope for the best. I met a woman who was on her third marriage. I couldn’t imagine being married that many times. I know that it happens. But when I listened to her story I started to wonder…
