Hello friend, I am really looking forward to spring kicking off this week. Yes, to warmer temperatures. Yes, to more daylight. And yes, even to the outdoor work and my garden that by now, I'm sure, is filled with weeds. Unlike most people, I find weeds quite fascinating. Technically, they are plants just like any other plant but the problem is they often grow in places that we don't want them to grow. Some weeds can be quite invasive, ruining our brag-worthy lawns and stealing nutrients from...

Hello friend, Recently, I had the kind of week that I wish I could put in a bottle. You know the kind that are sprinkled with just the right amount of goodness that you never seem to notice what isn't? That was my week. It started out on a Monday with a brisk morning walk in my community. Though it was a bit chilly, the crisp blue sky and morning sunrise was enough to convince me to just put on an extra layer, grab my scarf and running shoes, and make it happen. There's something about this...

I am a plant lover through and through. Not much makes me feel more at peace than sinking my fingers into the earth or feeling the grass beneath my toes on warmer days. Last month, I spent some time repotting a few of my plants. Houseplants offer an accessible way to breathe life into empty, lifeless...

Hello friend, Last week I ran into a former co-worker whom I'd worked with many moons ago. I was so happy to see her and spend more than a few minutes catching up. "Wow! How are you doing?!" I asked. "I'm good," she said. "I'm hanging in there." We stepped out of the cold and into the warmth of the hotel lobby where I get my usual Tuesday afternoon Starbucks cappuccino pick-me-up before T'ai Chi class. We shared a few updates on where we are in our lives: she's a first time grandmother, the...

Hello friend, Lately I've been hearing a lot about passion. Not the passion of roses and chocolates and red hearts but the kind of passion that makes you leap out of bed every morning to go off into the world and do work that you love. Work that 'makes an impact' and 'changes the world.' Work that will land you on a stage in a fancy dress or designer tuxedo accepting a humanitarian award and thanking your sixth grade teacher, your mother and father, and best friends from high school. Work...
