Welcome to the Writing What Matters blog. I have finally decided to write about the many things in life that touch my heart, things that make me crazy, things that I’ve noticed about the real-life situations happening on a daily basis and the responses people have to those happenings; and most importantly, the political commentary that changes our way of thinking, which in turn, change who we are, and how we respond to others.

How can we take back our power and build a solid community where we purposely try to understand and embrace our differences? Let us come together and talk about it.

My position is always to have an open mind and a listening ear to everyone’s opinion; but remember, opinions are thoughts of individuals, so it’s ok for each person to voice their own opinion. However, facts are facts and common ground (from my perspective) can be found by listening and actually hearing others’ opinions, statements, etc. It is my belief and desire that somewhere along the way we can actually cause meaningful change in ourselves as well as others and move towards a better future for all.

So, if you are interested in sharing real solutions via written communication and conversation, you have come to the right place!

Again, Welcome!!
