About my blog and About me
This blog is my knee-jerk reaction to what is going on in my life. While I attempt to filter what is said, there are times that I am not successful, so enter at your own risk...and please don't take what you read personally. If you do, then you should probably not read this blog because it's never going to be full of happy walks through fields of daisies.
I grew up and currently live in the Delaware Valley. My heart is torn between Boston, London and Philadelphia, not necessarily in that order every day. I work in the dental field. While I am passionate about teeth, I am more passionate about God and what He's doing throughout the world. Teeth pay the bills, but my love for God wakes me up in the morning and puts me to sleep at night.
I write, tweet, facebook and check in on foursquare. I laugh, make people laugh and make people uncomfortable by saying what they, at times, refuse to face. I am passionate about helping people figure out who they are and find out what success is for them.
I could go on, but then why would you read my blog?

Humanity…where has it gone?
Thank God I am not the person today I was in high school. I was angry. I was lonely. I had no self-esteem. I was unmotivated. I know one person whose life I made difficult…and I’m sure there were more. … Continue reading
It’s funny how far a dollar can go
One of the most powerful sermons that I ever heard was at a Methodist church on the day that my nephew Isaac and my niece Isabella were baptized. As I walked into the church, proud to be my nephew’s God-mother, … Continue reading
Earthquakes and hurricanes and unemployment, oh my!
Usually the northeastern region of the US is okay for weather….hot summers, cold winters but few natural disasters. Tuesday I was standing in a building, waiting to give blood for my sister’s class and all of a sudden, I find … Continue reading
And the battle rages
Sleep eludes me. I am battle weary yet my mind trudged along as if I’ve slept all day. In a few hours, mom will undergo surgery she’s put off for three years. Dad and I will be there for her. … Continue reading
Falling to pieces
Lately, people have been telling me I need to write. I know that I need to write. I know I need to get on my knees in prayer and beseech God to move. I know all of these things. But … Continue reading
Happy Fathers Day
Today I feel like I’m on the episode of “Survivor” when they remember all of the people who were voted off the island. God had blessed me with some great men in my life…but over the past few years some … Continue reading
Forward, March
Forward,march!! Left. Right. Left. Right. Ok, I admit it. I was a band geek in high school. Mock me if you will, but it taught me life skills…like how to love football. One thing I hated about marching band was … Continue reading
People don’t care how much you know…
I read a book this weekend called Heaven is for Real by Todd Burpo. My friend highly recommended it to me, and I have to admit. I was reticent to read it. Maybe I’m jaded by endless bookshelves filled with … Continue reading
