Since I am alone in the evenings during my trip to Tampa, I ventured over to a local mall tonight to see Sex and the City 2. I am a fan of the show and the first movie and even though the critics were not kind to this latest installment,…

I have seen palm trees before but I am always amazed by them. They are so foreign to my normal existence and yet so common in so many parts of the world. I am right on Tampa Bay and my hotel is surrounded by water. It’s beautiful here and after…

It has been a long long time since I’ve been on a plane and I love to travel and fly. Today, I returned to the friendly skies. I can’t imagine being above the clouds and not believing in a Higher Power of some sort. Today I received a wish that…

I am home today Friends, trying to get ready for my trip next week and a seminar tomorrow. It’s so strange to be sitting here writing this blog, like I have for months, in the same physical space, but in a very different mental space. The focus of my day…
