I've been around a while, and learned a few things along the way. I believe one should leave this world a bit more, for the moment shared with it; perhaps it's time I try.

A Meta Post about not Posting... Posted!
Lately, I've realized that I spend a lot of time thinking I need to get a blog post done and posted, but it seems like even when I have the time or ability to focus, it's hard to rally up the energy to push on ahead and find the words that need to happen to make that happen! If you've been following the PB Community Facebook Page for a relatively significant amount of time, you'll have noticed I've slowed in my pursuits there over the past year or so, as well. Let's see if I actually get this one done and posted!

The Weight I Carry in the Balance

Ashes of the Past and Moving Forward
This is one of those posts gleaned from something I'd shared elsewhere this past week, which got me thinking, and I thought I'd share the insights here, too. I guess it mattered enough to me that I keep it around to look at and read it later. So, here you are to read, too, if you like.

Weaknesses and Our Own, White Knights
It isn't until we've been shown our greatest weakness that we face it;
we see ourselves at our most vulnerable, and have to make a choice.

In Review, and in Preview
Something a little different this week. I posted this elsewhere in my little world, but I felt like it was something worth sharing here, so I'm going to do it, maybe with slight differences.

The Story of My Truth, and Defying the Ending
I'm going to share another something I recently shared with some of my personal folks, with some modifications. This might or might not sound kinda lame to you. But it's my truth. So be it.

It's Okay.
Okay, so maybe it all isn't really okay. But that's okay, too.
Maybe just take some slow, deep breaths while you read this post,
and let it help you come back to center.
You might just found it was just what you needed.
You wouldn't be the only one, I promise.

The Difference, in this World of Insanity and Chaos
This past week, I had an interesting question come to me, and I found it to be such a powerful line of thinking, I wanted to share some of my thoughts on it. Generally, I stay away from most topics of current events, but we'll see where this goes.

Bringing to Life a Survivor's Spirit
This week, my friends, we're going to delve into something I happen to find a huge part of my life, in various ways, and hopefully by my sharing that, you'll benefit in some way. I know I pretty much say that every week, but that just means that the intent is still there. So there.

Excitement, Commitment, and Infinite Potential!
Hey, look! It's a post! I've something to share, for once! Let's hope it's something worthy of reading. I know it's something I've found worthy of contemplating, this week, and I can't help but think I'm not the only person who ever has this experience, so hopefully we can all be better, for the sharing, hmm?

The Strength that is Weakness
Been a bit since I was able to post, though I've been sharing some posts from the archives on the PB Facebook Community Page. Been working on recovering from the consequences of a clash between a flu bug and a distracted immune system! But hopefully I'm back, and since I've had some interesting observations, lately, and though they do come up from time to time, I thought I'd share some insights from my own perspective.

As Good a Time as Any!
Last week, I'm sure I more than adequately explained, I'm not a big fan of "New Years resolutions".
This week, while I still feel that way, it seems a bit fitting that Life saw fit to hand me what it has, so I can make use of such a perfectly-timed need for a post topic!
So... Let's do this.

The Beauty in the Heart of Life
What does the heart contain, which allows it to create; and what's more, to create beauty? Or even to simply appreciate beauty? What is within us that allows it to reside, there, and to come out of us?
Yup. That is the question. Well, a few of them. Hopefully you'll see what I mean.

Perhaps a Step Toward Reason?
The other day, I came across a blog post called, "Everything Doesn't Happen For A Reason", by Tim Laurence, shared on Facebook by the Page, "A Beautiful Mess Inside". It was so powerful, at the time in my miserably-insomniac state, I was overcome by tears and, "Yes!!!" moments. It had me immediately signing up for his e-newsletters, because as Gayle at that Page said, "I want to read everything he has ever written".

You Needed Me, and We're All Here
This week I'm going personal, again. After all, even though the PB Project is focused on us all, I'm still the one writing these posts, so you're going to get to see me get a little egocentric, from time to time.
But who knows?
Maybe what falls out of my head will help/inspire/entertain you, anyway.
'Never know.
