    "Look for God's portion in all. It is waiting to be recognized." --- Dotsie Bregel




    It's December and that means I become mushy, reflective, and particularly grateful. Indulge me for a moment and let me gush with you.

    Midlife - I'm embracing it. I'm deciphering the good from the bad. The older I get, the easier this becomes. I've learned that relationships are "where it's at." Some are up close and personal, while others are virtual. Let me explain.

    Five years ago, had someone told me that I'd connect daily with a slew of virtual hearts as friends, I wouldn't have known what they were talking about. But all of that has changed since launching our "virtual girl's night out," the online neighborhood at www.boomerwomenspeak.com. It's become a safe haven for boomer women to share what's near and dear to our hearts. We give honest peeks into one another's lives. Instead of hanging over fences and clotheslines like our mothers before us, we hang over our keyboards to get the latest scoop.

    We learn compassion by listening and responding to our fellow sisters with grace. We try not to judge. We think before we respond. We put ourselves in one another's shoes (and some of them are quite fancy). We receive another perspective from one who has "been there - done that." We laugh. pray, forgive, encourage, support, offer virtual hugs, and celebrate the blessed ties that bind us to one another. We have more similarities than differences. You'd be surprised.

    This season, I'm remembering that we are here because we need one another badly. I encourage you to join us and feel the extended grace where strength, wisdom, comfort and peace abound. May we take our eyes off ourselves and recognize that life's a field trip that needs to be lived in community...even when it's virtual.

    Embrace those you love this season. Enjoy this issue. Oh, and to use the words of a wise woman in the forums, May your favorite presents be the ones that are not found in boxes.

    Onward with grace,
    Dotsie

    I start from the center and work out.

    When I create jewelry, I start from the center - a beautiful pendant, unique beads, a design template - and spiral out to the finished product. I add more - beads, colors, details - until the piece radiates a calming beauty. I don't always know what an item of jewelry will look like when I begin assembling components, but I start from the center and trust that my aesthetic instinct will follow the path that the beads need to take.

    The set below started with the idea of PYRAMID made with crystal. I had seen a much simpler version of the earring design in a gallery, but I wanted to expand upon the basic shape and add moveable elements. The earrings took 3 " hours, and sat on my desk for a full week before I decided on a design for the matching necklace, which of course evolved as I worked. The necklace took an additional 3+ hours - and did I mention that I've been creating jewelry for forty years and I'm FAST?

    Austrian Swarovski crystal; 14 kt. Gold-filled chain and wire. Earrings $150 Necklace $150.


    I start from the center and work out.

    When I write poetry or essays, I start from the center - an emotion, an event, an idea - and let the words wrap around the core until they say what I need to. My writing process is similar to creating jewelry - I'm not afraid to embellish when it furthers the logical conclusion, and equally not fearful of removing elements that detract from the intrinsic design.

    I start from the center and work out.

    I teach a free weekly exercise class for breast cancer survivors, as my way of giving back to the community. Our community is the next layer out from self.

    I start from the center - my heart, my soul - and work outwards, to create art, to describe my world, to touch the people around me.

    Happy holidays!

    Trust in the Wind
    By Vicki M. Taylor
    www.vickimtaylor.com
    Reviewed by Georgia Richardson, www.queenjawjaw.com

    Trust in the Wind- Chosing single motherhood in her teens, Joanne lost everything, including the support and love of her family. Pregnant and alone, she makes the decision to go forth with her life. She trust no one and firmly locks the door of her heart. She vowed to become independent, trust only the wind, and to never let love break down the barriers surrounding her heart. That is . . . until she met Roy. I finished reading Trust in the Wind and realized that once again Ms Taylor convinced me to "latched on" to her characters with a vengance. I can honestly say that if harm had befallen certain ones, she would not have been forgiven.

    Strong characters, suspenseful, and a love scene that massaged my heart. This was one time where the romance was beautiful; a gift . . . in a sense. As I read parts of it, I found myself saying, "I want that kind of love!" Every scene, every exciting movement, and yes, even the kisses exchanged, were given to me in such a way that an artist could not have painted a better picture for my senses to enjoy.

    Ms. Taylor, we have a winner.

    LifeLines: A Collection of Works by Six Women; Stories of Love, Life, Loss, Family, and Hope
    www.lifelinesweb.com/
    By authors Amy Landa, Linda Levitt, Missy Martin, Diane Amento Owens, Ann McCoole Rigby, Susan Tully
    Reviewed by Lynn C. Tolson,www.beyondthetears.com

    LifeLines is a compilation of essays written by six women. Each author conveys her unique personality within a main text: women writing about the human condition in a perfectly female perspective. Each writer had another career besides that as daughter, wife, and mother, among them a teacher, astrologer, accountant, occupational therapist, public administrator, and mental health administrator. For these women, who met twice a month to write and critique their work, a book of well-developed stories evolved called LifeLines.

    The book is divided into 12 categories with clever titles that reflect the "lifelines" theme: Line-up, Bloodlines, Sidelines, Mooring lines, Punchlines, Walking A fine Line, Holiday Lines, Severed Lines, alignments, Intersecting Lines, Bottom Line. In each chapter, every author contributes an appropriate reflection of that category. For example, "Lineup" is a chapter that defines the "who's who" of the entire book, describing in each author's voice her own brief biography in her own specific style. Amy Landa writes about the intensities of life with a creative prose. Linda Levitt uses details to describe in totality what she is conveying. Missy Martin writes clear and concise. Diane Amento Owens, a mother of four teenagers, writes with a sharp wit. Ann McCoole Rigby weaves the bitterness of her arthritis within her sweet observations of life. Susan Tully writes with a distinctive sense of humor. With six unique voices, there is a style to resonate with any reader.

    The book offers the reader an analysis of life, love, and loss. The authors examine relationships, make confessions, and offer revelations. They cover civil rights, child-birth, infant death, and divorce. They explore the lessons learned from parents and as parents. Prose, poetry, and illustrations enrich the book and engage the reader.

    Each author writes with a generous spirit, and then the authors give even more. The last chapter, Bylines, is about the writing process and the support within writing groups. If a reader is looking for essays with an honest exploration, then LifeLines is a reader's choice.

    How to Make the Holidays Better for Your Aging Loved One(s), Your Family, and You!
    By Barbara E. Friesner

    I've always loved the holidays - the gathering of family and friends, the traditions, the presents! But after my father died and my mother's dementia made it necessary for her to move into an assisted living community and then a nursing home, my holidays changed dramatically. Though initially difficult and emotional, I found that by changing my mindset (looking at it as creating new "traditions" rather than dwelling on how things "used to be") and some advanced planning, the "new" holidays have created some good memories, too. And I felt a lot less stressed and guilty!

    If you have already taken on caregiving responsibilities, have a loved one in an assisted living community or nursing home, or are beginning to realize that your parents are aging and may not be around for many more holidays and want to preserve family traditions and make the holidays happier " read on.

    Menopause and Irregular Menstrual Cycles: Rising Health Problem
    By Cathy Taylor

    Periods, or menstrual cycles, typically start to change long before menstruation finally stops. Irregular menstrual cycles are a cause of concern for a lot of women. The changes in menstrual cycles vary. Some women have their menses occurring like clockwork their entire lives, while others discover that they can no longer predict their period date. Still others, who have always had irregular periods, find that their periods have started occurring in a timely pattern. Mostly the time between periods lengthens or shortens.

    Many women see similarities between their menstrual cycles during their forties and during teenage years. The bleeding can become heavier or spottier or even some combination of both. These changes before menopause are all a common part of perimenopause, the stage before the final step of physical changeover in a woman's life.

    Anticipating The Holidays
    By Natalie Caine

    May the holidays first bring comfort, connection, and kindness to you and then extend towards others.

    What helps me is:
    1. Doing what I love to do
    2. Pacing my energy so I am not depleted
    3. Lowering my expectations in order to be present in the moment.

    In my November article on this web, I talked about how to care for yourself and your kids who are coming to visit for the holidays. I also talked about what to do if you are alone which really does hurt.

    December is a month of celebrations from all types of spiritual traditions. In the hurriedness of work, shopping, cooking, decorating, mailing, emotions rising and falling, we might forget to see the lights and hear the music all around us. Holidays bring memories and sign posts that time is moving us forward from what was to what might be possible.

    Supporting Ourselves
    By Prill Boyle

    I don't know about you, but I need all the support I can get-especially when I'm taking a risk. Over the years, my girlfriends and I have endlessly encouraged each other. But as I was gearing up to launch my first book a few years ago, I needed the support to be both more specific and more structured. So even though I'm not much of a joiner, when my headshot photographer Suzanne Sheridan suggested in the fall of 2003 that we form a Creative Women's Business Group with two other local women, I thought to myself, why not? The four of us have been meeting ever since.

    I'm Dreamin' of a Light Christmas!
    By Georgia Richardson

    One of my closest and dearest friends told me something yesterday that gave me food for thought. She said this year they're having a "light" instead of "white" Christmas. In other words, less is more. I thought to myself, "Now there's a plan! This is a woman after my own, disorganized heart." Then again, I had to admit that this same woman is one of the most organized people alive. She knows all of her children's names, birthdates, and even her hubby's golf handicap. I didn't even know he was disabled. When someone asked my children's ages nowadays, I usually stop and think, "I have children?"

    Although I've never seen her Christmas "stash," I would bet a weeks worth of Oreo's her white lights are neatly placed back in their respective boxes, untangled, and not held together with duct tape. Mine resemble a ball of yarn.

    Born to Die
    By Donna Shepherd

    The other night I heard the song by Steppenwolf, Born to Be Wild. It brought back memories of Junior High and High School - that song had legs! When it came on the radio, my friends and I turned the volume up, and da-da-da'd through the verses, and on the chorus belted out, "Born to be wi-l-d," and played air guitar or in my case, drums. Oh, were we wild.

    Born to be wild. Born to -- you fill in the blank. Sometimes we watch sports and think someone like Michael Jordan was born to play basketball. As a wee child, Julie Andrews opened her mouth, and a voice with a four-octave range flowed forth. She was born to sing.

    During this Christmas season, I've reflected on Jesus Christ's mission.

    "The Closer Your Success . . . "
    By Judith Sherven, Ph.D. & James Sniechowski, Ph.D.

    Art Garfunkle ran it right up the charts, singing about how:

    "The closer your destination, the more you're slip-sliding away."

    You know the feeling . . .

    You set your mind on a goal. Doesn't matter if it's a career ambition, Getting a date with a particular gal at the gym, Meeting a deadline which would produce more cash than you've ever seen, Getting your cousin to introduce you to her handsome neighbor, Losing the last 5 pounds after taking off the first 30 . .. .

    You name it . . . we all know the experience . . .

    As Steven Pressfield says . . .

    "The more important a call or action is to our soul's evolution, the more resistance we will feel . . . .."

    But, why would we hold back just as we're about to succeed in tasting the new, more fabulous life we've so desired?

    What's in a Name?
    By Karen Baar

    Those of us who went through the women's movement in the late 1960s and 1970s remember how outraged we were by the term "chick." We weren't cute, fuzzy baby chickens, we were powerful WOMEN. Ditto for being called "girls." Today, things have loosened. I personally don't use the word chick (and still dislike it), but I'm willing to concede that not everyone who uses it is a raging sexist. And I often talk about my "girlfriends.'

    Much has also been made in recent years about the politically correct use of language. Examples include substituting "herstory" for "history," "differently abled" for "handicapped" or "crippled," and "undocumented workers" for "illegal aliens."

    But there's another area where language is in dispute. What do those of us "of a certain age" want to be called?

    Why You Don't Write Your Book
    By Suzanne Falter Barnes

    In the ten years that I've taught people how to get on with their books and creative projects, I've noticed a phenomenon that I'll call "Author's Block." Would-be writers can, indeed, sit down and work when pressed to it. The problem is that they're not so sure they want the pressure of being an author. But they do want it. But they don't. And so on. Ah, the agony of getting on with your book.

    Integrative Medicine
    By Robin Miller, M.D.

    Integrative Medicine is becoming something of great interest to baby boomers. It offers a wide variety of treatments and options that are based on health, healing and prevention. What exactly is Integrative Medicine?

    Most people think that Integrative Medicine is simply the combination of complementary and traditional medical therapies. However, it is much more than that. Integrative medicine focuses on healing and wellness with the knowledge that the body has an innate ability to heal itself.
