I have always loved amusement park rides! Like life, they can be exciting and fun, sometimes like a roller coaster ride it can be scary – or it can be like a Ferris wheel or merry go round, going around in circles with nothing much changing as we go around and around experiencing the same things over and over. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Internationally Certified Alcohol and Drug Counselor with over 20 years of experience, I can assure you that life, like an amusement park, can be fun and exciting, or boring and repetitive – and most importantly, the choice is yours.

No one teaches us how to handle the setbacks of life. Whether they be personal, family, career, or interpersonal. Sometimes problems can feel like a tremendous burden. In fact, obstacles are often pathways to reach a higher understanding of ourselves and how we fit into the larger scheme of things. Freedom from fear, worry, anxiety, depression, and sleepless nights arrives with the acceptance of non-perfection. We are all human and fallible, born to make mistakes. In a world of judgements and comparisons we need to treat ourselves and others with respect and compassion. "Be yourself..everyone else is taken".
