Listen to Wisdom

Where was Marilyn Anderson when I needed her? The author of “Never Kiss A Frog”, published by Red Rock Press, offers her sage advice and experience. Marilyn claims that her journey through the swamp left several warts that will always be reminders of the dating mistakes in her life.
If only we could have read books in the 1980’s from authors like Greg Behrendt and Liz Tuccillo, who teamed up to pen the Simon Spotlight Entertainment book, “He’s Just Not That Into You”. As Greg and Liz simply put it, “stop kidding yourself!”
Statistics show that more women today are choosing to fly solo after divorce and failed relationships. In this changing world, more publishers are offering us opportunities to learn from the voices of wisdom and experience. Hopefully, if we feed our brains, we’ll heal our hearts.

To Bed or Not to Bed?

If you’re one to burn the midnight oil, this question comes up frequently when you’re spouse or boyfriend wants you to join him, but you have just one more little thing you have to do. Whether you’re working on a book, writing a song or entering the day’s events in your journal, there are nights that seem to call out to you. When you’re single, you can keep going till breakfast and sleep as late as you please with no more worries or thoughts of how he’ll feel about it. The bigger question is, “why should someone get upset with you when you need some time for yourself?”

Empowerment

The single life can be totally empowering. Check out Kristi’s story:
My husband had an affair and I asked for a divorce, placing myself in a position where I needed a new place to live, a car to drive, and a job that would support me. In just six months, I found a house, a better job, in addition to my first credit card and mortgage in my own name.
I’ve traveled to Europe and took a cruise, achieving more in ONE YEAR of being single than I did in fifteen years of a marriage.

The Mattress Is All Yours!

Early in an intimate relationship, most couples rarely have a second thought about the size of their bed. They prefer to sleep as close as they can.
When the honeymoon’s over, the struggle for space and personal comfort begins!
Here’s Jen’s story . . .
Tim and I could fall asleep with our arms around each other for months after we were first married. Then, one night I woke up to feel like the left side of my head was wet and it was. He was slobbering on me! I told him that I loved many things about him, but that wasn’t one of them. Before we knew it, we were fighting for the covers and over who had the best pillow. Now, I want my own bedroom!

No More Lonely Nights

This is one of the most popular reasons among women.
You don’t have to worry about where he is, when he’s coming home or when he’s going to call.
That stress is off your mind, off your shoulders and out from in-between your shoulder blades! It’s not even a part of your vocabulary anymore. No more lonely nights without him, because that chapter is closed.

Music For Our Troops

As we are fast approaching the Fourth of July, there’s something that we can all get involved in by supporting our troops.
It’s a songwriter’s life for me and it finds me always looking for ways to share my music.
I recently discovered a wonderful web site, where songwriters and composers could submit their music to be a part of a compilation CD to be sent to our troops.
I’m proud to say that one of my songs, “Wild Horses” has been chosen to be on the “All States All Stars” collection. It represents songwriters from each of the 50 states and is planned for shipment to our troops by the Fourth of July, 2007.
You can be a part of it too, by making a donation to this great effort. For more information, please visit: www.MusicForTroops.com.
