I know it has been awhile since I have written anything; a whole season has passed! Life has been crazy, busy, overwhelming, entertaining, hopeful, and outstanding. As I write these words through a haze of exhaustion, I find my mind settling not on those times that have been painful or a struggle, but rather, on [...]

Haven’t had much to write about lately. I’m actually working on a novel so any creative juices are being channeled there, or into ideas for a future event planning business. One of my co-workers brings new decorating and cooking magazines in during the week, and there are so many ideas I want to try and [...]

When I first saw the previews for America’s Toughest Jobs, one of the newest reality series, my curiosity was peaked. Out of all the reality shows one can choose from, this seemed to have a bit more quality than some.
The previews show them panning for gold, driving monster trucks, participating in a rodeo, lumberjacking, and [...]

There’s a song that I’m singing, but I can’t remember the words,
A melody I’m swaying to, feeling awkward and absurd.
You’re asking me to dance with you, but our moves just aren’t the same,
You’re moving fast and smooth and fine, while I trip over my own feet in shame.

Buy a ticket, enter in, roam the rooms, haunt the halls.
Are you in the mood for something sweet and serene?
Maybe you’d like to interpret the tear-stained walls,
Or grab some coffee as you take in the scene.
Take your time, settle in, find a niche.
Let the melody linger as the memories mingle,
Full of all these years, deep and [...]

What would define a life-changing moment for you? If we all lived in a movie, we would have our own personal soundtrack playing as we lived our lives. Some moments need a strong overture of instruments while others, a simple melody. I don’t think movies would be the same without the scores that guide our [...]

I just got done reading a few of my friends’ blogs; ones that I hadn’t yet discovered. I was more than pleasantly surprised at what I found. What caught my attention the most was the simplicity portrayed. Even though there was depth and even eloquence, their words simply showed their truest selves. I find that [...]

Yes, the title of this post is supposed to sound familiar. I ripped it straight from one of the greatest songs of all time, Eric Clapton’s Tears in Heaven.
Aaron and I were catching up on our DVR’d shows and while watching Nashville Star, I went to Youtube to have Aaron hear the original version [...]

Shed this skin that I’m in,
let it fall.
Peel back the layers,
Slowing to a crawl.
