Beyond Blue

Many Beyond Blue readers commented on this beautiful and lyrical response from Marquos on the message board of my “Dear God: The Holy and Not So Holy Family” post. Thanks for this, Marquos. As you might suspect I am an insecure, self-centered person desperate for praise and validation … a frustrated, undisciplined writer, unable to…

I didn’t know how last night was going to go, because I’ve never done anything like that before. But I have to say that when 8:00 came around, I felt better, like I had been to a support group. So here’s what we did. Everyone who logged on became a number. Wisdum was person 1,…

Holly, Beliefnet’s Health Editor, and my editor, made her own. Here she is to tell you about hers.What are your resolutions????

I couldn’t resist publishing this description of Beyond Blue by reader Margaret on the message board of my “Biggest Thrills of 2007” post, because it nails the mission statement or at least my vision of what we are all about. I thought it appropriate…

My best wishes for a good start to 2008 for all my Beyond Blue readers! Resolution number two for me is to establish better boundaries between work and family, so I’m trying to practice that by not writing anything today, even though I do consider you all as family (that’s where it can get complicated).…
