Broken Heel Moment – I was laid off from my job

Broken Heel Moment: Airing Out Dirty Laundry
Last night I went to a Christmas party. It was intimate, the wine was flowing and the server was delightfully hot.

Roleplay
People come and go in our lives and we assign roles to them. We decide who they should be in our lives, how long they should stay, what their purpose is. We think it is up to us to designate a role for each “player” in our life. What if we are wrong? What if...
Your words are hurting my soul
