My Mini Me

I was in the middle of a meeting when I got the call. The call that would change my life even further.

I'm having a baby girl.

What name will I give her? She has an amazing personality already. Fluttering around in my belly. I feel her vibrate and buzz around when I least expect it. It is the most fascinating experience of my life. It is pure magic.

Eternal Sunshine of The Spotless Mind

I haven't really been able to decide how I feel. I haven't been able to really identify my emotions just yet. My initial reactions were surprisingly calm. I think I contribute my calmness to how I have learned about my triggers and how they no longer control my life. But at the same time, I think in combination with all of my hormones all over the place and also my views on the situation, I do feel a sense of loss because of the voluntary departure of my beautiful familiar that has now become nothing more than a donor, but also a sense of abundance because of the newness of having a new tenant in my uterus. I think as much as we try to control our lives, there is a greater power out there that shows us that we are not as in control as we think we are. Rolling with the ebb and flow of life has certainly become a lesson that is worth diving into because of how ego can take over and create chaos in an otherwise beautiful experience that should be looked upon as happening for o...

Where the Present Meets the Past

2019 has certainly been a life changing year. I have recently made a huge decision that changes the course of my life as I know it; a decision that I never imagined I would be faced with in my lifetime. It is a gift that has been bestowed upon me by my beautiful familiar that I've known for lifetimes. He didn't see it that way. Not at all. He gave me one option that would make him comfortable. But it was the one option that I would decline; the option that would destroy my identity as a human being if I had agreed to what would make him comfortable. I have been through enough in my life to know that every single experience I have ever had, happens for a reason. Can I offer this to you? No. No? Well, if that is not good enough, I cannot do anything about that. We all have a choice as to how we look at every situation. We can see it as negative or as something being rearranged for our highest good. And trust me, it has taken me a long time to get to this mind set. I am no l...

The Foundational Groundwork

They did the best they could. The foundational groundwork that I was exposed to as a child required me to fix the many holes that affected me a young person haphazardly evolving into an adult. We did not grow up with religion. I mean, we were Catholic, but not practicing Catholics. The ironic part is that my mother is quite religious. But my mother used to say that my father wanted nothing to do with church. So we never went. Her and I would go on occasion, together. And at one point, I was a part of the church choir, but it would never be a solid foundation. I would explore Philosophy and other religions later on in life because of my natural curiosity of things and I would embrace many pieces from all of them. The exposure to the fighting was the foundational groundwork. The exposure to the many times my mother would run away was the foundational groundwork. The name calling, the yelling, the throwing things, the cursing, that foundational groundwork became a broken record. We ...
