Author: Rose DesRochers
May Peace be your gift at Christmas and your blessing all year
through! ~Author Unknown
Christmas used to be my favorite holiday as a child. I loved everything about
it, the decorations, food, carols, family and of course, presents. But as I
became an adult, I found myself disappointed with the holidays. The true meaning
of Christmas was somehow lost.

| Advice: Envy and Jealousy - Don't allow it to control you |
|
Author: Rose DesRochers
Most everyone I know has experienced envy at one time or another.
"Some folks rail against other folks, because other folks have what some
folks would be glad of." - Henry Fielding
Envy is an emotion, and it is not always easy to control our emotions. Have you
ever read another writer's work and been jealous that your own writing has not
reached that level or maybe one of your fellow authors has had great success
with their first book and you have not been as successful. It is hard to look at
another's success and not envy it. As writers each of us is capable of seeing
what our own strengths and weakness are.

Author: Rose DesRochers
There is no better time than the present to honor those we love with a dance.
As I look back on my life, I realize that everything happens for a reason. I watch the seasons of my life quickly pass me by and I think about how we are born, we live and we die. I think of those so deep in their job that they neglect those around them.
