Welcome to the one post that will change the way you look at your life forever! (I hope!) I recently finished a women's Bible study, with some beautiful sisters, entitled Exploring the Mystery Within. One of our first homework assignment was to make a list of five things we could declare about who we are. … Continue reading What’s in a name?

Joy of Dogs
At the end of my blog posts, you can see I named my publishing company Fluffy Puppy Publishing. Why? What does a fluffy puppy do? It scampers and romps and just generally acts too cute! How does that effect us? It triggers the part of the brain that goes awww and awe. Because who doesn't … Continue reading Joy of Dogs
Revolution of the Squishy Grape
September is Suicide Prevention Awareness Month. It is very serious and my prayer is that everyone does what they can to save lives. No matter how simple a gesture, it might just be the thing that saves a life. From my lips to God's ears! Back in the last millennium, when I was a teenager, … Continue reading Revolution of the Squishy Grape

Being Fruity
I'll tell you straight up, I'm addicted to kindness. I can't get enough of it. I'm hooked on dealing it to others. The world needs more of it. Giving kindness doesn't have to be extravagant. Simple kindness seems to work the best, because it is sincere. When starting anything new, it takes practice to make … Continue reading Being Fruity
