Claiming My Faith as My Own

August 18, 2014 By: Heather

Set Down Those Expectations

For months, I’ve been questioning, thinking, feeling…deeply, frequently, and kindly. I’ve been seeking, asking, clarifying. What is my relationship with God? What has it been, what will it be? What is it now? For most of my life, at least for as long as I can remember, spirituality has alway been part of my life. […]

I Believe in Humanity

We Belong to Each Other

“If we have no peace, it is because we have forgotten that we belong to each other.” ― Mother Teresa My heart is heavy. I’ve been attempting to write multiple posts this week. Posts on back to school, that time I crashed a motorcycle, the fine lines forming around my eyes and 42 letters of […]

He’ll Be Fine

August 4, 2014 By: Heather

The parent of a child with mental illness

“He’ll Be Fine,” is what many say. And it is very likely they are right. In fact, the probability is quite high that not only will he be fine, but that he’ll even have fun. Lots of it. Today I dropped off my son at his first overnight sleep away camp for the week. This […]

Live Life More Compassionately

July 21, 2014 By: Heather

“Did she actually look in the mirror and say, ‘Oh, yeah, this looks good’, before she walked out the door?” “What is she wearing?” “Someone that size, should NOT be wearing something like that.” How many times have you heard someone say these statements? Or, how many times, have you actually said any of these? […]

Monday Funnies – The Top 11 Things I Hate About the Gym

July 14, 2014 By: Heather

Monday Funnies – Because it’s Monday. And we all want our weekend back. But we can’t have it for another four days. So, yeah…MONDAY FUNNIES are what we need. In this week’s Monday Funnies, we are exploring the Gym. I think many of us have a love/hate relationship with the Gym. Perhaps even more of […]

And So I Ran…

June 9, 2014 By: Heather

“You should run,” they said. “It will be fun,” they said. “You will like it,” they said. And so I ran. And I ran. And then I got hurt. I don’t even have a good story to tell about it. It’s not like I was jumping hurdles or trying to outrun a bear. I was […]

Choosing Love

May 19, 2014 By: Heather

This idea of choosing love sounds easy. Fashionable, almost. There’s truth in it, but it is a hard practice. When I say, ‘choose love’, I am referring to loving yourself. Intentionally choosing to seek love over fear, love over self doubt, love over judgement. Removing the ‘not’ from, ‘I am not worthy’. Wow, is that […]

The Peace Lies in the ‘And’…

May 13, 2014 By: Heather

I’m really struggling here. Let me explain. Does anyone else feel this delicate balance of accepting things as they are, being grateful for what you have, and honoring your right to mourn, grieve or feel sad for what you don’t? Sunday, I arrived early to meet my Mom for a Mother’s Day lunch. As I […]

It’s Hard…

May 9, 2014 By: Heather

It’s hard to know where to start sometimes, when I write. There’s so much to say, but so little energy to say it these days. All of it seems so overwhelming. Stringing words together in meaningful sentences to share my story in such a way you might feel you are walking along side me on […]
