Entering the wilderness, either by choice or chance, has oft been used as a vehicle where a character enters, experiences a transformation, and emerges a changed, and usually, better person.   As a curious group, those of us at All Things Girls pondered the opportunity to delve into the midst of the moments while in the […]

Often in life, we are in the “hurry up and get there” mode. Life is a series of obstacles all geared towards the end result. There is a different school of thought, however, and that is the journey on our way to the destination is just as important as the actual end-point. […]

As the days approach to the holiday and gift giving season, the child in me wonders what Santa will decide:  have I been a naughty girl this year or nice?  The adult in me wonders if indulging in that fabulous chocolate pot de creme after dinner is a way of being nice to myself, or […]
