Rejecting Rejection…

May 31st, 2014|

...Where a double negative equals a positive result. Who are we? Rejecting rejection is at the essence of being human. We are all born with the instinct to belong. Because, we all DO belong.

Free Speech and the Right to be Curly

May 10th, 2014|

  Free speech is a very complex concept. It sounds so appealing, so simple, so easy. Upon examination we often find it troubling, never simple and hardly easy. It actually has a life all it's own. A simple concept? An unalienable right? A tool people use to manipulate, buy, sell and control others? All of the above and much, much

Autism Positivity 2014

April 29th, 2014|

I love Autism. I love my son. They are packaged together and I love the whole package! Love is my life's filter that takes us over the daily hurdles. If we give ourselves more hurdle's than necessary then it becomes hard to keep up. Life is about hurdles to be sure. Some we produce and

Love Not Fear

February 13th, 2014|

      I guess you can say that has always been my approach. Love not fear. That is who I have always been. Not particularly worried about the unknown things in life. My future, my career, my life's destiny. I understood early on that my life was a loving evolution that could not be forced. That

Beware of CHANGE!

February 5th, 2014|

    CHANGE. My Dad always taught me it was the only thing we could count on in life. I adapted to that train of thought quite easily. It made perfect sense to me. We are born, changing and growing everyday until we cease to exist. So yeah, change. We are connected to it on
