Have you ever considered that living life is like climbing a mountain? Living life involves problem-solving, and so does climbing a mountain. Both may be intimidating at first glance, yet both are conquerable if we take one steady step at a time. Both demand courage to start, and both require the willingness to keep moving upward, even when the path is steep.

Some of the greatest challenges I have had to face have occurred since I became a widow a few years ago. I tell my story in my memoir/self-help book, Learning to Dance in the Rain – Surviving Grief, Internet Dating and Romance Scams. It has won several book awards, including a Silver Medal, but it recently added Pinnacle’s BEST BOOK in the MEMOIR Category.  | Click Here
