Knowing what is true for me and how I claim it are priorities in my life. I’ve always had a streak of advocacy in me.  When I was five years old, I wrote a letter to petition the principal of my elementary school to allow kindergartners to have chocolate milk on Fridays because the other grades did.  My reasoning was based on fairness.  He concurred, and I’ve been fond of chocolate milk and speaking up for what I believe in ever since.

Speaking the truth isn’t always popular no matter how politely it is phrased.  I’ve been disappointed by how frequently honest communication is shunned out of fear or the desire to keep the same broken systems in place.  It also isn’t always easy.  Sometimes the consequences are painful and self-preservation or protecting others overrules. Even in those cases, I’d rather be honest with myself about my choices.

This site is about sharing my truth and details and the wisdom I’m learning from others to live a more meaningful life.  Join me?
