When Does Life Begin?
"Do one thing every day that scares you." "No one can make you feel inferior without your consent." "We gain strength, and courage, and confidence by each experience in which we really stop to look fear in the face... we must do that which we think we cannot."

The Story of How Lindsey and Stevie First Met
I’ve never understood those people who try to come across as elite wine connoisseurs when, in fact, they are nothing but posers. After all, a rare few have the depth of knowledge that a Master Sommelier has, having earned themselves the title of essentially knowing everything there is to know about wine. Theirs is an artform really, one that involves intense years of studying, tasting, and traveling.

LBD
The black or the brown? Claire stood in the section of the closet that Clive had assigned to her. The house had been a new build and the master bedroom’s design included two large walk-ins: one for him and one for her. Claire resented the fact that Clive’s athletic wear had migrated to what should have been her closet. She kicked at one of his running shoes, imagining the scent of sweat and dirt wafting from it and permeating her clothes with its aggressive stink.

Down at the Car Wash
I don’t know if I classify as a claustrophobic, but I do not like the feeling of being in a room without having the windows or door open. My blood pressure elevates a bit. I think about exit strategies. I feel sweaty. I start to worry about hydrating. I want to remove myself from the confining space and out into the sunshine or rain, hail or snow – any kind of weather – just as soon as possible.

The Beauty of a Round Hat
There is a Lithuanian proverb that says: "For every head, a hat." Henry David Thoreau wrote: "Live your life, do your work, then take your hat." And Philip Treacy sums it up really well: "Hats are about emotion. It is all about how it makes you feel." And to sum up my own philosophy: “There is beauty in a round hat.”
