: About Me

My name is Harriet and I would like to share with others my experiences and thoughts about life.

I have been married, divorced, raised kids, taken care of people in need, been a person in need. I have worked, been fired, quit jobs and changed careers more times than I would like to really relate. But what I am trying to convey, is that I have lived a life of many everyday, in your face experiences and I feel I have some things I can share with others about how my path has unfolded and what I have learned through all these experiences.

These articles are all my opinion and my perspective but writing is about the way life impacts the person that is writing about it. For me, life has been scarey, fun, unsure, desperate, maddening, heartbreaking and joyful. And most of all informing. 

I am a Christian. A believer in Jesus Christ and one who supports the hope that others will come to faith in Jesus. But even in this, I know that Spirituality is an individuals journey to learning and enlightenment. I want to share when I can, the understanding and knowledge that has been given to me about the God I worship.

I hope that others will see somekind of hope through what I write if they are feeling life bearing down. I truly desire that what I write will be enlightening and entertaining. I hope that I will grow from reading others articles to help in understanding the many faces of this world and society that we are all living in and experiencing together.
