Introspective Sunday: Am I Needy?
There aren’t too many women out there who could say that they didn’t need something, whether it be clothes, kitchen utensils, a man, a job, a car; it’s human nature to expand their list of possessions.

Be thankful for what you have: talents, possessions, people, love, and your influence are all blessings.
I have gathered some savvy tips for whole health (body, mind, and spirit) in this practical article about weathering the holidays.
A woman’s day is filled with opportunities. We give, receive, love, hate; we choose in which direction our lives go; we seek truth or we settle for less. It’s up to us to find true joy and fulfillment.
“The future is not a result of choices among alternative paths offered by the present, but a place that is created–created first in the mind and will, created next in activity. The future is not some place we are going to, but one we are creating.”
This week has been one of soul-searching and self-examination…no, not the breast kind. I’ve been seeking to understand myself in a greater way- the inside person who drives the bus, so to speak.

It dawned on me today that when we are not spiritually and emotionally sound, we can’t be our best – the women that we are meant to be. You know, like when your allergies are acting up; you don’t put your best foot forward because you’re too busy blowing your nose and trying to breathe – nothing feels right. This is the equivalent of being emotionally stuck in second gear; you can’t seem to get where you want to go at the speed you need to get there.
