Time and its relationship to health, wealth and love

Time is a concept that I’ve been a bit focused on since my mother was in the hospital in April.  I guess I’ve been a little bit tuned in to the mortality of all of us.  Although I do know that we are timeless spirits temporarily inhabiting a human body it is still a bit [...]

Thoughts on The Enchanted Frog

So our brand for the book “Some Day My Prince Will .com” is an enchanted frog with a crown on his head, sitting at a computer and with a magic wand above his head with fairy dust coming down and enchanting him (after all, he was writing to me on match.com). To me, he represents [...]
