Full Disclosure

“Only your real friends will tell you when your face is dirty.”
~Sicilian Proverb~

My brain is the perfect business. One half manufactures nonsense, while the other half buys it all.

We all do it. We spin our own story, sell it to ourselves, and then wonder why nothing changes.

That’s where Mama Bear comes in.

The people closest to us see what we can’t — or won’t. And the real ones aren’t afraid to say it out loud. Not to hurt you. Because they love you enough to tell you the truth when you won’t tell it to yourself.

That’s Full Disclosure.

    Carpe diem.~ Horace ~ Monday gets a bad rap. Many grumble about it like it’s a punishment. But look at it differently — Monday is the one day the whole week hands you a blank compass. No mistakes yet. No momentum in the wrong direction. Just a fresh line pointing wherever you decide to point…

    “Let That Shit Go.”~The Dude~ Sometimes, the only word that can be used to accurately describe all the unnecessary garbage we tend to carry around. Because everybody — every single person — is carrying something they should have put down a long time ago. A grudge. A story. A version of themselves that doesn’t fit…

    “Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. Live the life you’ve imagined.”~ Henry David Thoreau ~ Dreams are rest stops on this long trip — a chance to catch your breath and see how far you’ve come before you decide where you’re headed next.
