Toes on Vacation
My toes had been nagging me for weeks. They were tired of bulky socks, winter boots and stuffy shoes. They were exhausted from running errands, rushing to meetings and running through constant rain. They demanded a vacation. What could I do? I took them to Palm...
Maybe it’s not about me?
I felt betrayed. My friend took advantage of our friendship and of my generous nature and I felt wounded. After all we've been through together. Any judge and jury would find her behavior irresponsible and would find her guilty as charged. One day I realized how much...
