We Begin Again
By Bernadette A. Moyer
Every day and every year is an opportunity to begin again. With each New Year we are afforded the opportunity for renewal. Years ago a friend said, “It is not over until we take our last breathe.” A new year is but days away and we can start fresh. We can make...

It’s almost time to say goodbye to this year. In a few days, it will be 2012.
I liked 2011 (I have a thing for elevens). For me, this year has been busy, pressured and fast. It was also a year of travel, change, and accomplishment.

Today, I am renewing my passport. I can't believe that it has been ten years since I made a New Years Eve promise to myself. Things were a lot different then. I hadn't yet published my first book. I was living on a tight budget. I did all my writing in a closet. Not a...

The new year is right around the corner and I am doing quite a bit of housekeeping. It's amazing, but I am seeing metaphors everywhere. Today, I have been cleaning out my jewelry box. In a tangled jumble, there is about twenty years of assorted gold jewelry. A broken chain,...

The Savor Factor
I met a wise woman once who gave me a terrific bit of advice that I’ve never forgotten. As a matter of fact, I decided to incorporate her very astute suggestion into my yearly New Year’s resolution list─ probably the only one that, after almost twenty years, I still follow....
