Forgiveness
This video struck home for me.  I don’t have a lot of things that I hang on to.   I tend to get my feathers ruffled from time to time but I easily forgive and forget and move forward.
I do, however, struggle with certain things that have happened in my life that I had to waste [...]
Bang!
I like Danny Noreiga.  He’s beautiful.   The song was one of my favorites when I was a kid.

A Symphony of Masterpieces
Beautiful and absolutely amazing! 4 different people working on the same digital canvas at the same time. This is something to sit back, relax and take in. Very enjoyable.

United Way - Flash Mob at Arden Mall in Sacramento
My friend, Heike’s two beautiful children participated in this and she posted this on her facebook page. I was very moved by this. Not only because it represents the United Way but because it is home for me. This is where I live and people I know are in it. And [...]
A lovely lady
I hope that I have a good soul
I used to feel that I was worthless and unlovable if I was not a perfect size 9.  I’m not one who easily can maintain a thin frame.  I’m meant to be a healthy gal.  =)  As I have become in my 40’s my weight has gone up and I do tend to use food [...]
Was it really that bad?
I was disappointed that someone took a photo and sold it to the tabloids so that Michale Phelps was exploited as a bad bad boy. Well in this day and age many young twenty-somethings are smoking a little pot now and then to blow off steam. It’s not like they are doing hard [...]
Real Live Women
I thought it was silly how all the media was making a big deal about Jessica Simpson putting on a few pounds.  I think she just chose an unflattering outfit.  And if Jessica were to put on weight would that mean she would no longer be worthy of our attention?
I have been following a channel [...]
Friendships
Author Kelly Corrigan wrote this moving essay about women’s remarkable capacity to support each other, to laugh together, and to endure. The full text is available in the paperback edition of her memoir,The Middle Place, on sale December 23, 2008.
The Middle Place
This essay reminds me of the friendships that I have developed over the [...]
Love
It’s in the Bible, I Corinthians 13:4-7, TLB.
“Love is very patient and kind, never jealous or envious, never boastful or proud, never haughty or selfish or rude. Love does not demand its own way. It is not irritable or touchy. It does not hold grudges and will hardly even notice when others do it [...]
In retrospect
I remember back when I first saw Janis Ian and thought she was kind of plain.  But now I look at this and see how beautiful she was. The idea of beauty back then was the women on Charlie’s Angels. Now I look back and see how “dated” they look.
I wonder [...]
The power to embrace all of our flavors.
Sometimes we lose or perspective of who we are when we try to please everyone else and forget to be ourselves. Or I should say, forget who we are. There are so many different facets to each and everyone of us. So many things to embrace and be proud of.
There [...]
My YT pick for today. Enjoy…
Here’s my YT pick for today. Beautiful song, gave me goose bumps. Go check out her channel on YouTube. http://www.youtube.com/user/alleycat82

“You and me,”
Said the raindrop to the seed
“WE’ll make a winning team won’t we?
Cause when I fall down
You’ll become a pretty flower
And I’ll be finally free
From the shackles of this cloud
And the sun will shine
And we’ll [...]
Oh NO! Yoko!
Poor Yoko! Her name has become synonimous with breaking up relationships and she was blamed for the break up of the Beatles. 
It’s true! One person can come along and ruin the energy and flow of a group. I’ve seen it happen many times. It’s wonderful to meet that special someone. To fall in love. But [...]
Once More With Feeling
One of my absolutely favorite people on YouTube.
This is from Once More With Feeling, the Buffy musical episode.

Gotta admit she was good!
I’m still a supporter of Obama for President but I have to admit, I’m likin’ Sarah a lot more as a person. I thought she did well on Saturday Night Live.

For Michael
I’m so proud of you and for the initiative you have taken in riding your bike everywhere.  Please remember to wear you helmet.  There’s a reason you should wear your helmet (ALWAYS).  Though this is humorous, turn up your volume and watch her run into the pole.

Govenor of Stepford for VP!
Looking fresh out of the vault from the Stepford Wives.
OMG!!! LOL! I just saw a reference to the SW when I did a google search. I swear, I never heard it before I wrote the above. She IS like a STEPFORD WIFE, huh?
Where does she get that accent from? Honestly. [...]
