move on

Don't spend your life wondering "what if?" and worrying over something you have no control. The past is over and done. Looking backwards will cause you to miss out on new blessings ahead. What will happen on October 31?  You decide.

The wisdom of Oprah

Yesterday I quoted the wonderful Oprah Winfrey. I'm always reading things she writes. This I found appropriate for today and also very inspiring. Miss Winfrey says "Year’s end is neither an end nor a beginning but a going on, with all the wisdom that experience can instill in us. Cheers to a new year and another chance for us to get it right."

Oprah Winfrey said

Oprah Winfrey said "Be thankful for what you have; you'll end up having more. If you concentrate on what you don't have, you will never, ever have enough."

Come out Come out

On National Coming Out Day it should be noted that folks are urged to come out, but nobody should feel pressured into doing it.  It's a personal thing - when the time is right for you.  Nobody should have to hide though.  Everyone should be free to live their life openly and honestly.  If you feel safe, come out as gay, bisexual, transgender, lesbian, queer, supportive, questioning - whatever label works best, and be your true self.

pumpkin kindness

A brand-new month is here!  Just ahead are thirty-one days in which to be kind.  Share some of that pumpkin kindness or maybe pumpkin spice!
