“A woman without a man is like a fish without a bicycle.” – Gloria Steinem, feminist icon, journalist, and political activist This glib statement of women’s lib may indeed pierce the ears of family-focused conservatives and over-excited wedding planners alike. For this fearless queen of feminism delivers a face-jam of alternative thought. Ironically, though, for too many sisters this underlying empowerment is still tough to swallow. Come on, ladies, snap out of it! It’s time to bash the pipedreamy, you-complete-me-scenario and accept that you alone are complete, whole, perfect…and fabulous! After all, men are referred to as the opposite sex for a reason -they can only attract or repel. Period! Get right with yourself first, woman! The right time, right place scenario will then reveal just the right man: attractive, complimentary and complete. Just like you! Copyright 2000-2010 by Kimberlie Dykeman.

“A wound, a red badge of courage.” – Stephen Crane, novelist & journalist A decision was made, a choice acted upon, and the evidence runs red. Sound familiar? Perhaps you proudly stood up and spoke your mind or terrifyingly tried to sing in public. Finally left home for good or left that joyless job with tail between your legs. Maybe you declared a longing “I love you” or were dealt a devastating goodbye. No matter your predicament, position or point… you can’t help but be affected by the gaping gash that painfully exposes your heart and ego to everyone. But may I remind you that even as you invested precious time, energy, and effort, you did not offer up your name, reputation, or spirit in vain. Bravery gives you the armor to face the battle; but in taking a leap of faith you demonstrate just how much you believe in yourself and your cause. When all is said and done, a silver lining glistens one simple truth: all wounds eventually heal. Trust in that and you’ll emerge stronger, both inside and out. So, break out the band-aids, folks, and live a life worth fighting for! Copyright 2000-2010 by Kimberlie Dykeman. SUBSCRIBE to FREE feed/email HERE!

“How often things could be remedied by a word. How often it is left unspoken.” – Norman Douglas, novelist You know the moment it happens. A breach of trust. An error of judgment. Something is broken, stolen, hidden, lost, faked or found out, and without hesitation, defenses are raised along with emotional weaponry. A story of gossip. A fumbled statement. Something is lied about, omitted, used against, or blurted out, and both peace and promise are shattered. Be it trivial or crucial, that “something” doesn’t just become the proverbial thorn in someone’s side…it becomes the veritable wedge that splits a chasm in a relationship indefinitely. And whether you’re the guilty party or the targeted casualty, not taking action to mend the bridge only allows more opportunities to fall into the abyss below. What, then, is the true value of conquering for self-elevation or crucifying for wrong-doings, when the bond of brotherhood is broken? Folks, we are all born with a glorious gift to connect and re-connect with others, and a capacity to create harmony amidst upset. Choose to turn a negative into a positive, regardless which side of the blame falls on, and get to talking. After all, to err is human. Copyright 2000-2010 by Kimberlie Dykeman.
