Kindness and Compassion

I am a contemplative person. I have always been a writer. I write poetry, trashy novels, letters, short stories, and recipes. I have a professional blog but have never moved into a personal space with one.

I have a desire to share my opinions and philosophies and love to receive other opinions.

I will ask that when responding you remember there is a human being behind every word. Please do not be rude or cruel when responding to anyone’s post. I will moderate them and take down those deemed offensives. Feel free to share opposite opinions, but please be considerate.

All of the photographs on this blog have been taken by me or by my Daniel. Please ask before using them on your own. They may not be resold for any purpose by any company without my expressed consent.

Happiness is a choice

Today, in this moment I have a choice. To be happy or not to be. Really those are the only choices ever.
Netiquette
