I have been writing, creating, and sorting my groceries on the same table for several years now. Recently, I decided to move the table by about 3 feet from the wall so that I can do clearer video conferences. The result was astounding. By simply […]

Have you ever had someone constantly tell you that they love you, but their actions were completely different?
They almost never contact you. When you need them they disappear. They are generally not that interested in you until they need you.
That’s not love. And I think it is important that we recognize that as soon as possible.
This applies to all sorts of relationships.
Some people will drain you and take take take for as long as you will allow it. You are the most important person in your own life. Please remember that.
Do what you have to do to be okay and live life to the fullest.
Just a quick post of something that has been on my mind lately. Take care of yourself.
Love Lynn

Get Clean or Take A Hot Bath If Possible One of the symptoms of depression is that you stop caring about getting clean, taking baths or taking showers on a regular basis. Sometimes having the dirt or grime of the previous day can hold you […]

There are probably countless articles on the power of purpose, because it is a universal truth. But I think it’s worthwhile to bring it up again, especially at a time when a lot of people are stressed out, depressed, and losing hope. Maybe this reminder about why it’s important to have a purpose, and life quotes for women will help inspire you.
I believe the cause of a lot of depression is the loss of a sense of purpose and interest in life. When you lose someone you really care about or have any other type of major loss, it starts to make you wonder whether you have a purpose for being here anymore.
Here are a few reasons why it’s so important to have a purpose in life, large or small. And it doesn’t matter if the people around you or who you know, including family and friends do not understand why you are doing what you are doing. The point is that you have to see the purpose in it and find some sense of joy there.
A Purpose Gets You Up and Moving Around in the Morning
When you’re feeling low, hopeless, and purposeless, you might find it difficult to drag yourself out of the bed in the morning and do anything at all. One benefit of having a purpose is that it motivates you to wake up each day, earlier and earlier, and get to work. You might even want to start doing some of the things you loved to do in the past, whether it’s yoga, playing an instrument, dancing, singing, or writing.
A Purpose Can Help and Inspire Others
When others see you rebound from a difficult situation, whether it’s the loss of a job, the ending of a marriage, grieving a loved one, or recovering from a mental health issue, it is inspirational for them. They might be dealing with a similar problem, quietly, and need help. When you find a purpose, even if it’s just telling your story, or giving a testimony, it could be just the thing that someone needs to get up and make something happen in their own lives. There is so much power in purpose.
A Purpose Can Make You Money in the Short and Long Run
After a while, you may find that pursuing your purpose could become a way to generate a new form of income. For example, if you find a purpose in knitting socks or mittens, or crafting, you might start to think about how you can sell them at flea markets or online. You might even find that your purpose has led you to discover what you are really good at, and how you can add special value to the world.
A Purpose Keeps Your Mind Occupied
There are a number of passages about the uselessness of having an idle mind and wandering aimlessly through life. When you have a sense of purpose, you are always thinking about new things, coming up with ideas, and seeking knowledge.
A Purpose Helps Open You Up to the Beauty of Life
Purpose helps open you up to the beautiful things around you. The sun shining brightly, the leaves rustling in a gentle wind, the ocean waves coming to shore, and the kind people you encounter each day. It may be because knowing that you have something to do, and something important to think about puts you in a different energy field where you can once again appreciate beauty.
Think about it. What gives you and your life a sense of purpose? When my mother, and a number of other people I cared about a lot passed, I felt that I lost my purpose — being there for them and loving them. But with help from my grief group, and people who still care about me, I am learning to adjust. I feel that I may be coming back into my own sense of having a purpose that is mostly focused on me and my own needs at the moment. It isn’t always easy, and it takes some time, but it can happen if you stay as focused and positive as possible.
Consider these life quotes for women and how exploring the power of purpose can be life changing for you and others around you. As desperate, lonely, and hopeless you may feel, there is always a possibility that with time you can repurpose your life and find something that interests you again.
I came of age in the 90s and early 00s which I am very thankful for. We used to have parties, some of them we called “sessions” and had a great time enjoying each other’s company. We built bonds and friendships. We “talked” and got […]

I was scrunched up in the driver’s seat of my car, in the parking garage of the hospital where my mother was being treated. They only charged $8 if you stayed until midnight, so I stayed in the garage, waiting, just in case. Thankfully, the […]

At a time when we are dealing with a lot of chaos and confusion in the world, it may help to hear about how others are managing things. I have been dealing with a barrage of concerns, all at the same time, including social isolation due to the pandemic of 2020, family dramas, and numerous other issues. It takes a lot to keep it together. I think about how other people are managing.

With all of the things going on in the world at the moment, it’s very difficult to stay focused these days. I live alone, and I’m very grateful to have a safe space to create and just be. I’m going back to work soon, so it will be good have a consistent schedule again.
Most of the people I miss at the moment are in California, where my family lives, and I’m living on the east coast. It’s been such a great experience living on the east coast, because I’ve learned a lot about myself, and having the ability to survive no matter what. I’ve met some amazing people and it’s been challenging and interesting at times.
I miss my family, and I would like to visit them soon, hopefully at the end of summer. I also miss some friends, because like millions of other people, I’ve been spending my days at home. Some days are good and I feel really productive and creative, and other days I feel lonely and I want to run away from everything.
Something enlightening I’ve learned this past year is my owning my resilience. And also knowing that the ability to love ourselves is a journey and a continual process. I’ve had a difficult time battling negative thoughts and ongoing negative thought patterns simply because I’ve had to do that on my own.
We have to learn to combat those thoughts on our own, and no one teaches them to us. Searching for positive media and encouragement from ourselves is somewhat of a daily task, but it’s definitely feasible I think.
