WHATEVER! A Baby Boomer's Journey Into Middle Age (2006)
"Whatever! A Baby Boomer's Journey Into Middle Age" is an inspirational and humorous look at growing older. The book started as a journal because I thought I was having some kind of mental breakdown. I wanted to record my thoughts while I was still of "sound mind." (LOL)
I was relieved to discover I was in the early stages of menopause--because that meant I wasn't going crazy---wouldn't need prozac---and menopause has become a great excuse for everything that ails me or pisses me off! :)

Who am I? First and foremost, I am a woman who loves God! I am a wife, mother, grandmother, veteran journalist, motivational speaker and author. My debut non-fiction book was published in 2006 and became an Amazon Best Seller in 2007. It's called "Whatever! A Baby Boomer's Journey Into Middle Age." It is an inspirational and humorous look at growing older.
My favorite scripture in the Bible is Philipians 4:4-8
My motto as I grow older: I'm still Hot...It just comes in Flashes now!"
Peace & Blessings,
Beverly

If you watch Oprah, you've heard her talk about having an "A-Ha!" moment when the light bulb went off in her head and she found clarity.
I'm asking for your Whatever! moment. This is a time in your life when you thought about giving up but someth...

I have missed being here and to be perfectly honest, I have not real excuse for not being around. I could say Life got in the way, but that's not an excuse I want to use when I stand before God on judgment day.
I see lots of wonderful things are ...

Hi Beverly, I responded to your whatever! moment on your guest page and lost it after copying it to my shoutlife blog. Would it be too much to ask you to jump over to view it? Thank you so much!

INCITE: Compassion
We all know the story... After a time of careless living the prodigal son returns to the home of a loving father who awaits him with open arms.
Just as this father welcomed his son, at the heart of God's plan of redemption is a father's heart of compassion. Who, regardless of your history, waits for you with open arms.

LIFE: From Your Friends at
Lingk2us.com
What makes you uniquely special? What would you do if time or money were of no object? Or what big idea have you been quietly nursing as time passes by?
Many of us spend our lives trying to answer these questions to no avail while others push these thoughts aside and get on with the business of practical living. As human beings, we are all not only born with inherent gifts, talents and abilities, but also posses the capacity to directly or indirectly impact our immediate surroundings. Yet somehow, much of it gets lost in the hustle and bustle of every day life. Think about the things you did as a kid, when you were limited only by your imagination?before paying the mortgage became the priority or well intended friends and family members callously wrote on the tablets of your heart. If you could mentally revisit that simpler time; obvious clues about your authentic self and your life's purpose would become apparent. Were you the 'go to' kid in the block? You know, the popular one!The one who's natural leadership ability and 'Big' ideas rallied the group into action. Or maybe you were the more creative type. The kid who explored every hue under the rainbow and through the use of odds and ends and other homespun materials, created imaginative designs that far superseded the ability of his peers. Whoever you are; remember that your true self (the kid you have been carrying with you all along) along side time, money and your ability to dream big are God given assets to help you reach your fullest potential. And remember that as long as you have the gift of life it's never to late explore the possibilities.
