It’s nice to be appreciated, but only when the words have true meaning. It’s a lot like people would say, “we need to get together.” The words come out, but the action behind them disappears, and instead, they become just empty words.

When Things are Falling Apart
When things in our lives seem to go wrong, we feel as if it’s the end of the world because we can’t see further than what’s right in front of us. It is only when we look back that after we’ve survived the storm that we realize that those “broken” parts are actually pieces that make up the beautiful picture of life, a new start.
Single at Heart
I was never one to focus on marriage or even being in a relationship growing up. I guess I was so used to being on my own that the thought of sharing my time didn’t interest me that much growing up. It wasn’t that I didn’t have good role models. My family was filled with…
It’s the Most Wonderful Time of the Year
There’s a reason for holidays being so stressful, and it’s far from a bedtime story. Holiday stress is overwhelming
When You Brag
This past weekend taught me a valuable lesson on bragging. For many, if bragging was an Olympic sport, I know a few who certainly would win a gold medal in it. I know that I’m not alone when it comes to dealing with braggers. Almost no one likes a show-off, but most people like to…

The Heart Doesn’t Lie
In less than 8.2 seconds to fall in love at first sight with a person. I don’t know how, but our heart tells us differently. You can see someone crossing the street, on television, or even through social media and know within a short period of time that there are feelings.
Our Grandparents
Grandparents have a way of bringing unity to the family. Either it is through daily phone calls to weekly meals, it was about spending time together. There is the chance to teach family values, instill ethnic heritage, and to pass on those traditions to family members so that they can be carried on.
Notion of Remembering
Loss comes at different seasons of our lives and for different reasons. It triggers an emotion within ourselves as a result of some life circumstance. There are many who believe that mourning is best when we find closure, but the idea of getting over it and the extent of the emotions triggered is a myth. I’m not sure if we really ever get over the loss of someone, as much as we learn to cope.
