Living Life Out Loud...

Many of you probably already know that "LOL" typically stands for "laughing out loud" but here on my blog, it means "living out loud". For many adults being authentic no longer comes naturally. We must work at it. Somewhere between childhood and adulthood we have lost the ability to simply LIVE. After dealing with a lot of personal trials, including verbal/emotional abuse and being the caretaker for my father prior to his death, I have come through and not only survived, but am working on thriving. I have maintained a sense of humor & have been resilient. Here I will write about my life and what's going on in my mind. Hence is the life of a writing, child-at-heart, sage-like goddess who refuses to "grow up" if that means being inauthentic.

Farran Davis Scholarship Fundraiser


April 17th is my departed friend, Farran Davis' birthday. She would have been 34 years old. Please help me honor her life and legacy by raising $3400 in her memory. Proceeds from the fundraiser will go directly to helping cancer patients and survivors in financial need attend Young Adult Cancer Camp, an annual event hosted by Elephants and Tea and Young Adult Survivors United.
Any amount helps, and if you cannot donate, please share and help spread the word.
