identity the mirror misses

The mirror is so honest. I see that as we age, things don’t stay within the lines like they should. Lipstick, red, is creeping toward my chin. Eyebrow hair is waving, like tentacles searching for krill, over the rim of my eyeglasses. And my skin—well, in all the visible and hidden parts of my body, no one can put that back where it came from....

Self-Care Starts With “Me,” Which Means What?!

Hello wonderful readers. I've been getting some heat re: straying from my original premise of in fact being a "Friend to Yourself" from a biopsychosocial standpoint, and what does "Me" mean? I'll just review a bit. Let me know what you think, and where I need to flush things out more.

Discover the essence of being a friend to yourself by prioritizing self-care and personal responsibility for a fulfilling life.

Christian Louboutin red bottom pumps, Chanel suit—she was the classic OC therapist. Going into her office was a place that was so put together that one so unput-together, such as Missy, could paradoxically find space....

Good Friday and My Dad

Hello Community! Every year on or around Good Friday, I try to post something about my Dad, who died in 2020 on Good Friday. Today, I’m remembering working in the garden with him. When Dad came home from work, smelling of sandwich meats stuffed in his sport coat pockets and operating room sweat, I’d feel like my inside pieces realigned....
