I must be relentless […]

Hardships happen—that’s a guarantee. How we handle our circumstances varies. Some choose to be distracted while others want alone time. Before Buddy, my automatic response was to isolate and numb myself—anything to avoid my feelings. Thanks to my free spirited, loving Golden Retriever, those days are over and I’m not sleepwalking through life anymore. I […]

The sound of a packed filled stadium is powerful. Having fifty thousand spectators, shouting at you can be quite a distraction.

That’s a no-brainer. To sit on a bench with my father for an hour would be a dream come true!! An hour of being comforted by the touch of his hand. An hour of letting me be exactly who I am and holding space for me to speak my truth, show my vulnerability without judgement or reaction.
