Non-Radioactive Glow (guest post by author Beth Pensinger)

Today's post is by author Beth Pensinger.  It's no surprise her book released on April Fools' Day, as you'll find when you read it. Beth's fun and funny personality is reflected in her writing, as is her honesty, her love, and her desire to help save your fingernails (you'll understand when you read her back cover below). I met Beth through a...

If Only I Had Enough Money (even though self-discipline has no price tag)

“If only I had enough money, I wouldn’t need self-discipline.” I was walking our puppy when that thought popped into my head. It blew up just as quickly. The noise seemed so real, I almost expected the couple walking by to turn around and stare. Until that moment, I hadn’t recognized how close I was to settling for jobs (just for the money)...

Whose Legacy Are You Living?

Earlier in the week, I pulled this message from a fortune cookie: “You will become a great philanthropist in your later years. ” Since those years are fast approaching, I felt encouraged when my friend Diane invited me to a conference sponsored by Women in Philanthropy and Leadership. Time I read her invitation and saw the word “philanthropy,”...

Laugh It Off (a silly Post-it)

After writing about depression and grief, the Newtown tragedy, and living the life we’re afraid of as described in Jeff Goins’ book Wrecked, I need a laugh and maybe you do also. I mean, I could go on writing about depression until you’re reading “Depression, part 113 of infinity.” I figured, instead of wrecked, let’s get sidetracked, at least...

We Need To Talk (depression, part 5 of 5)

I could see our story on the Six O’Clock News. Woman arrested for beating husband with a plastic food cover. While police dragged wife from the scene, she screamed over and over, “Spaghetti sauce stains.” Police are looking for clues into the crime. And maybe you understand if you live with someone who Has a propensity to downplay every issue,...

The Cure (depression, part 4 of 5)

A friend called to ask the cure for my depression. She thought I was over it because I was talking openly. It’s partly true. I am on the other side of  “I can’t get out of bed” and “I cry most of the day, everyday.” However, like in the article link below about artist Grandma Layton, I’ve “suffered from feelings” most of my life. Still unable...
