Motivational Monday Poem: A Lonesome Path

An independent spirit journeying on With hope and passion as her guide Walking alone most of her life At a pace too clouded by dreams For any romantic partner to catch up My soul’s mate walks on His journey distant from mine Have our paths crossed Or veered in parallel for a stretch of timeContinue reading “Motivational Monday Poem: A Lonesome Path”

Library Graduate School: Art or Science

I am in arts-focused writer who entered into a science-based graduate program; a necessity to pursue a career in libraries or archival studies.

Days 17 & 18 of the Love Write Now Pledge

I’ve learned to be more present, awareContinue reading “Days 17 & 18 of the Love Write Now Pledge”

Days 15 & 16 of the Love Write Now Pledge

Two days ago I wrote about my issues with low self-esteem, and it’s taken 48 hours for me to knock it the heck off! 😉 Sooooo, today’s blog post entry is a celebration of ME. Not in a “Look at me” way; more like “I’m awesome even when I don’t feel awesome.” I’m Awesome Because…Continue reading “Days 15 & 16 of the Love Write Now Pledge”
