If you haven't noticed, I have been taking an hiatus from writing. But, that's not to say that my hiatus will be permanent. Not by a long shot. Instead, I have been immersed in reading autobiographies which always whet my appetite to write.

"When I’m on the road speaking, I often joke about the story of my life as if I’ve stuffed up, done everything wrong and made wrong decisions that lead me up the garden path of nowhere.

You are not who you think you are. You are not that face you see in the mirror every morning. You are not someone’s child, or someone’s parent, or partner or friend. You are not the physical body you admire or criticize when you take a shower, or when you get dressed.
Neither are you the profile description on your social networking page, or your high school diploma, your driver’s license, or your title at work. You are not defined by your career, or the things you own, or the family…

In fact, I've met more than one relative in a dream after they passed from this world, and it has given me tremendous hope for what lies beyond this life. I wrote two stories for the new Chicken Soup for the Soul book, entitled Messages From Heaven. You can read a third story on my author…
