[Un]Comfortably Numb.

April 1, 2013 by Peppy

I know, when you first read the title you probably paused a second wondering if it is a mistake. Well, no, it isn’t a mistake. It’s just that it struck me recently what we do to keep alive our memories of family or friends who are no longer in our life – they may be […]

Feeling The Void

September 29, 2012 by Peppy

Whenever we see something empty it is quite normal, and generally wise, to fill it back up.

Are you afraid to be alone? Do you hate to shop, eat, play or work alone? For many, being alone is something to fear, to dread, and they avoid it at all costs. I know I have gone through times in my life when it was unthinkable for me to do something, anything, alone. After […]
