Care to share one thing you treasure about your normal, ordinary day? I’m sure there must be several, but tell me just one. Here’s mine:  A hand to hold. I am grateful I have that. And I pray for those who don’t. Let us never overlook the simple but special things in our normal day….

And what is this blog if not a platform to remind us all that there, amidst the flaws, the mundane, the inconveniences, the highs and lows, exist our blessings? In our daily grind and moments of stress, we tend to forget that. We just get so bogged down with negativity, you know, that we lose…

Our blessing are many, aren’t they? Absolutely. And we are so very grateful for them. Want an opportunity to “pay it forward”? I got you. My team, RxfortheSoul, is participating again in the annual St. Jude Walk/Run Miami. Your generosity and support will make a huge difference in the lives of these kids and their…

You ever been walking along and bump into someone or something and spill what’s in your cup? 🙋🏻‍♀️ Ugh, que mess! Apúrate, grab the paper towels! Easy fix.

So, without further ado, let me share (pun intended) this cookie with you: At an airport one night With several long hours Before her flight. She hunted for a book In an airport shop, Bought a bag of cookies…

Today’s scheduled post was moved to “drafts” for a later date, because yesterday morning while I was praying I felt a nudge which I thought I’d share with you. I suddenly became aware of how I talk to God in complete and utter believe that He is listening. That was powerful. I mean, most times…

Not everything has to be monumental to merit a “Thank you, Lord” from us. Our days are filled with little good things, many little good things that go right. Be aware and recognize them. For me, those simple things may be coffee brewing in the morning, an elevator that didn’t take forever to arrive when…

How many times do we think, “It’s not me, it’s….” Yup, 🙋🏻‍♀️  More times than I should, actually. Often, we are quick to judge others’ behavior. But, do we ever stop to think what might be the reason for their behavior? What’s going on in their day, their life? A slightly different version of the…
