Lately I've been hearing so much banter with people adamant about their person freedom and individuality. I get it. It's important. However, I believe freedom cannot come at the expense of everyone else. No one gets their freedom because of anything they do for themselves. We enjoy freedom because of the collective efforts of people… Continue reading Interdependent Warrior Women

Warriors find the Good in Everyday.
The past 11 months has truly helped me change my perspective. I am learning to adopt this motto nearly everyday: find the good in everyday. Finding the good means searching for happiness and positivist, big or small, no matter what is happening in your day. I get it... sometimes we all have a bad day. … Continue reading Warriors find the Good in Everyday.
Deeply Rooted Warrior Woman
I grew up in Central Oregon. Our property was dotted by juniper trees. One lone pine tree stood in the neighbor's field. These trees needed deep roots to survive. For several years my parents planted various trees and had the kids water them all summer long. These little trees did not have deep roots. They… Continue reading Deeply Rooted Warrior Woman
Warriors Fight for the Love of Those Behind Them
This is why we are warriors... for the people we love. This includes family, but most especially, God.
Warrior Woman Worth
Warrior Women know their worth. This says it all for me... especially in my current mood. I hope my daughters always remember their worth. Warriors know their worth and give no discounts.

It seems obvious that honesty has been on my mind. Warriors are honest. Honesty is the easiest virtue you can practice that will lead to… Continue reading Warriors are Honest
A Warrior Embraces Change
This is a concept I am slowly learning. Change is good. Remember that. Resistance is futile. Remember that. "Of course there is no formula for success except, perhaps, an unconditional acceptance of life and what it brings." Arthur Rubinstein I realize that life is unpredictable. However, there are days where I am not okay with… Continue reading A Warrior Embraces Change
A Warrior is an Optimist
One of the greatest "Warrior Women" I know is my friend Jo. She moved away and man, I miss her. I miss our chats and our mutual rants. I miss her wild hair ideas and the "projects" she gets me into. I miss her support of my activities and I miss supporting her in her… Continue reading A Warrior is an Optimist
Warriors are Givers
Warriors are givers. Givers seek out ways to be helpful and give to others. Takers focus on getting as much as possible from everyone around them. A Giver is always looking for ways they can be of assistance to others. A Taker is always trying to figure out what they can get out of any… Continue reading Warriors are Givers
