Not Quite a February Self-Love Sunday Note

Dear Readers, It has been quite some time since I posted, skipping a self-love Sunday January post. Was it because I was so busy that I did not have the time? Unfortunately, no. You can probably guess it was because I could not find the words within me to say something positive to myself. 2022 …

December 2021 Self-Love Sunday

Dearest Readers, Did I miss two consecutive months of Self-Love Sundays? Yes. Did I start posts each month and abandon them? Also yes. In all honesty, I have been finding it very difficult to come up with anything kind to say to myself the last few months. My inner critical voice has been difficult to …

Self-Love Notes to my September Self

Dear Readers,  It has been almost a month since I wrote my last blog post, which just so happened to be a self-love not to myself for August. What a month September has been. I feel like it started out on a bit of a shaky footing but ended up sagging to the ground the …

Us in August – A Self-Love Note

Dear Readers, How have you been? I have had a busier August than usual, having traveled (by vehicle) to see my nieces and nephew. According to Google Maps it was a 28 hour drive, but that did not figure in pit stops. And with my sister as my travel companion, there are pit stops a …

A Self-Love Note in July

Writing to oneself a love note in May

Dearest Readers, How have you been? How has the month of May been treating you? I am squeaking this Self-Love Sunday note to myself in right under the wire. Why? You may ask. Did I not find myself being as kind to myself as I *cough *cough usually am? (Insert eye roll here.) May has …

The Book of Truths – Writing Prompt Wednesdays

The book slammed shut, a dust cloud emitted from the pages like a cough. She stared at the cover. Her rapid blinking hoping to push back the tears that wished to fall in an attempt to drown her. It had been a ridiculous tale. A blank book that could only retain the truth. A fable. …

For Self Love on a Sunday in April

Dear Readers, Believing it is nearly the last week of April is both shocking and a long time coming. How is it that in the midst of a pandemic time is able to move in such inharmonious ways? The minutes during the day seem to languish but the day appears to end within a blink …

Self-Love Sunday March

Dearest Readers, How have you been? March is a busy month for me, as four out of the six of my family members all have birthdays this month. It is exhausting and yet fun. (One of the reasons why I am not a fan of cake - as every March for many, many, many years …
