  Be Present: Show Up We convince by our presence. -Walt Whitman There are times when someone is going through something and I wonder what can I do for them. How can I help them get through this tough time? I think of those times when someone has passed and there is obviously nothing, I can do to help with their pain or ease their emotions. In those cases and in many cases, we lose sight of the importance of our presence can be in easing someone we care about through stressful situations.  Sometimes, many times, probably most times, it is enough to be present. It is enough to show up. Sometimes all someone needs is for us to show up and support them by just being there. I find this is especially important when your loved ones are going through a milestone and they extend an invitation for you to participate. You may not think it is a big deal, or feel you won’t be missed but your absence would be felt just as much as your presence would be noticed.   Do not discount ...

  The Watcher The Watcher is a new Netflix series with 7 episodes at the moment. Thank goodness for only seven episodes because I am not intimidated enough by the episode count not to watch it. Actually, I had no intention of watching this, and I am still unsure as to whether or not I am going to finish it. However, I am two episodes in so there is a high probability that if I can get my daughter to watch it with me I will actually finish the thing.  Now, I know it seems like I hate the series already. On the contrary, I have actually enjoyed the first two episodes. It is just not something I would watch on my own anymore because I get so anxious.

The couple, Dean and Nora Brannock, think they have found their dream home until disturbing things happen and they get very, equally, disturbing letters from “the watcher.” It ...

  Misconceptions about Success and Stress Success according to the oxford dictionary is “the accomplishment of an aim or purpose.” In America, we hold a great deal of value on financial success. I would like to think this is because of what that financial success brings us in the way of some level of freedom to live the life we want. Interestingly enough, when one appears to be successful i.e. they have financial wealth or they are making a great deal of money doing what they love, we seem to think they no longer have any problems. Time and time again, I have witnessed people trivialize the issues that someone with money may experience.  It was evident when TikToker Mikayla Nogueira, after having a long day, expressed that being an influencer was hard work. At 13.6 million followers her revelation was not well received. The backlash she received was extreme and insulting and depreciating and overly harsh just because she is someone making a lot of money. I will say that after ...
