Roomba envy is this obsession that follows me wherever I go. Like a madness, that plagues me, I cannot overcome it. When visiting friends I do not look for cob webs in the corners of their homes or dust clinging to the top shelves. (Definitely, my grandmothers influence. Love you Nana.) My eyes scan the floor. …

Who Is
Who is this Negative Nancy or Jerk-Off Joe? Offensive, fictitious names that embody flesh and blood individuals, real life people who find strength by burdening others with their misery and off-handed, cruel humor. These are people who need constant attention and quickly learned negative regard can be equally satisfying. They risk fewer personal stakes and reap…
Oh’ Roomba
Oh’ Roomba, how you make my heart go thump. Last week, I ignored her cries for recognition in Friday Funnies, but as the stern task master, I made her do her dirty-little chores in the usual fashion without writing Roomba, dear, in a post. The newest development in our relationship is that I no longer hide my vacuum fascination…
A Movement
A movement of positivity and change. A daily choice to fill our minds with light and make happiness our right.

The kernel of understanding takes a grain of truth. We must be honest with ourselves, and the role we play with others. To grow as a people we should not have to hide. When did we learn to be ashamed of who we really are? Through honesty there is no need to do either. It goes…
To Be
To be a pillar of strength may be more than we are willing to extend. Allowing ourselves to become too close to situations, that are just too unsettling. Make the effort. We stub our toe in the morning and that is the premise set for the day? We should acknowledge there are many individuals who…
There Are
There are times when it is best to not respond, to swallow that snarky comment that seems to want to leap from our mouths. Do we realize that blatant honesty is not a compliment? In fact it is nothing short of putting ourselves down to regard our own self as such. Are we really okay with being…
In This
In this society we have been trained to take. Oft times what does not belong to us. There is a lost sense of moral balance. A broken compass that individually should be held accountable. Takers, take and so what we give must be done so freely without fear of loss. Our internal light is an energy emanated, belonging to each…
