Today Is My Birthday!

Today is my 36th birthday! I felt the 36ness come upon me in the night and told 35-year-old Trula good-bye. She went on her merry way, wishing me well. I love birthdays so much, they are such a celebration of life and a remembrance of birth and living another year!

A twitter pal had this posted on his site and showed me today, I think it's such an awesome poem:

Happy Birthday to You!


"If you'd never been born, well what would you be?
You might be a fish! Or a toad in a tree!
You might be a door knob! Or three baked potatoes!
You might be a bag full of hard green tomatoes!
Or worse than all that... why, you might be a
WASN'T!
A Wasn't has no fun at all. No, he doesn't.
A Wasn't just isn't. He just isn't present.
But you... you ARE YOU! And now, isn't that pleasant!"
-- Dr. Seuss, from Happy Birthday To You!

Positive Emergence: The Zine for an Ultra Life

My new zine reflects the emotional changes going on with me in my journey of personal development. Positive Emergence: The Zine for an Ultra Life is about my mission to infuse positivity into the world! Topics include choosing happiness, depression management, overcoming trauma, letting go of the past, personal development, personal growth, positivity, and more. Positive Evolution is a quarterly publication. Magazine dimensions are 7.75 x 5 with a full color cover and back. The inside pages are black and white with gray scale artwork and photos. The magazine has on average 50 pages, and is composed primarily of the writing of myself, Trula Breckenridge, and freelance writers.

Until a person can say deeply and honestly, "I am what I am today because of the choices I made yesterday," that person cannot say, "I choose otherwise"

- Stephen R. Covey

Music

Mama Songs CD

I am a writer, not a singer or musician, but this is a project that is very close to my heart because it sprung out of love for my children. Mama Songs is a collection of songs I wrote and sang to my children when they were small. I think your kids will like them too.
