This post is referring to one of my early posts about finding the courage to contact an old friend.
Dear J-
I want to start off by saying how sorry I am for taking so long to contact you. I have been thinking about you a lot over the past few years. I even attended our ten year [...]

I am a sheep. The Lord is my Shepherd. And right now, so is my mother-in-law.
Last Sunday in church was the Fourth Sunday of Easter, Good Shepherd Sunday. I particularly remember the readings and homily this day because I immediately was reminded of my mother-in-law and how she has been a Good Shepherd to me these [...]

I am not a selfish person. At least I don’t see myself that way. So why do I feel guilty when I do ask for things? And not even material things. Just things that are missing in my life. Things that should be part of a marriage. Things that make a family strong. Immaterial, abstract, untouchable [...]

I bought and watched the movie Juno last night. I saw it in the theater and knew it was one of those movies I just had to have. I was left with these feelings of sadness but also liberation.

So, I’m sitting in my counselor’s office last week & she asks me what my goals are. I was surprised she asked me this again; but this time, I was thinking a lot clearer and was able to answer her question with ease. She must’ve known there was more inside of me than what she picked up [...]

I had another meltdown last night. I am SO tired. SO burned out. What am I supposed to do? How am I supposed to cope with all of this? The stress is overwhelming. I actually said “I give up” last night. He got the best of me. He took what faith I had left & [...]
