Having Disappointment over for a cup of Tea
Giving emotions air space is one of my favourite past times. I know for sure when they get stuck inside of me, it is NOT a good thing. Also, when they take up too much space that is also not a great thing. Two weekends ago, my lovely love of my life triggered some big disappointment. […]
Regret and The Yardstick
I have been fascinated for some time in the unpacking of our not so pleasant emotions. Getting our issues out of our tissues so to speak. One of my tag lines is that our emotional unpacking can lead to our souls unfolding. This has been my experience. For sure. Without getting into the nitty gritty. I have some […]
Frustration. A personal story
I have always considered myself pretty comfortable expressing my emotions. I cry when I am sad, I laugh hard when I am happy, and I am comfortable sharing my anger when it feels appropriate.I even have as one of my tag lines..emotional unpacking allows for our souls unfolding.

We’ve lost ourselves in this grand masquerade, Being mother, wife, daughter, doctor and maid. We shout from the rooftops “We’ve made it”! But, we’ve been played… We bought into a system and all it conveyed, Ignorant of […]
