Fathers and Daughters
It was 13 years ago when I first began asking the question, “What influence did my father have on my life?” My marriage had ended and I took a serious look at why. There wasn’t anything terribly wrong with my marriage, but there wasn’t anything terribly right about it either. I married safe. I married stability. I married to avoid repeating my mother’s mistakes. (Sound familiar?) I took a good look at my ex-husband. There wasn’t anything terribly wrong with him either.

Finding Love After 30 vs. Finding Love After 40
Yes, countries are starving, flooding, fighting and financially struggling and these are all major issues on a global level. But in the hearts and minds of millions of women (and men), finding love after 30 and finding love after 40 might just be one of the biggest personal dilemmas of our decade. We think we are so unique and yet, we all want to be healthy, we all want to be financially comfortable and we all want to be loved. It seems we’re not so different from one another after all.

How My Father Impacted My Life
My marriage ended not long after it began. One child was conceived and before he was 3 years old, I was living with my son, all on my own. Anyone who has been through a divorce (or the end of any serious relationship) knows that it takes years for the final curtain to close. So, you can imagine that my brief marriage was not a happy one. How does this explain how my father impacted my life? It was after my divorce that I decided to go back to University, to complete another degree in the field of Psychology and Human Relations.
