I began replacing “resolutions” in 2007 with guiding words for focus. I chose three little words in 2007 and they changed my whole life. My world opened up. I transformed.

Into the Light by Deb Smouse
I believe it’s important to start each day fresh. There is something to be said for allowing the desire for positivity in your life to win out over the negatives of past experiences.

Continual Improvement by Deb Smouse

Living My Passion, Finding My Courage, and Searching for Forgiveness by Deb Smouse
I swore to myself that I would not allow another issue of ATG to publishing without my column. But here I sit on June 29th at a lovely outside café enjoying a little Thai food (please forgive the lemon sauce) while the eighth or ninth draft of my July column winds its way from my [...]
How Deb (is getting) Her Groove Back by Deb Smouse
It tends to come and go at moments when I least expect it….at moments when it is quiet around me – and I am alone driving…..or in the middle of a crowd queuing up to gain entry to some place I must go to. It’s emotional in many ways…and I feel like a child who [...]
