The restaurant was hopping. The waiter was on the move from table to table—checking on his customers. I settled into my seat, back to the wall, observing my surroundings. Various conversations about business, Florida’s recent hurricanes, holiday parties…all which were interesting to my party of one. A man at the table across from me…

I sold a property called, “The Dandelion House,” adorned with the theme throughout and even a dandelion painted accent wall. Upon seeing it, my clients decided to write a contract. Before leaving, mom and two little girls closed their eyes, made the wish (that this would be their new home) and blew on the wall.…
Read MoreWho told you that?
My friend shared a story about feeling unloved and unaccepted. After thirty years of struggling with not enough, she saw a store clerk and thought she was beautiful.

I’ve taken a girls trip with my best friend, Julieann (AKA Buddy), for seven years and counting. We’ve seen some beautiful places, sharing belly laughs, tears, and simply sitting in the wonder of God’s beauty. It was our last night in South Dakota. Although our days had been packed with adventure, this special night centered…
Read MoreIt is what it is
I’ve despised this statement my whole life. So when I hear someone say, “Well, it is what it is,” I translate it into passivity. I’m a doer and I bring change. However, through my trials over the last few years, I’ve given in to the lie that nothing is changeable; and slowly started accepting it. …

On a spring hike, I decided to walk a short portion of the trail to find a quiet space. The snowy steps were too slick for my tennis shoes, but I hiked on. The sound of the roaring waterfall, the gentle breeze inspired the pines to sing, and a bluebird flew past as I exhaled.…
