RE-DEFINING SUCCESS: Woos and Woes

Sheelagh Cabalda is a partner, mama and educator, who has worked extensively in youth development, cultural studies, multicultural counseling, cancer support, higher education, events administration and non-profit management. Redefining success is a combination of positive & changing self-concept, inner directedness and a balance of priorities. It is personal empowerment -- taking charge over what we can control & accepting what we cannot. Every day is an attempt to do just that.

Rhythm

i listen –
to her breath
to the beat of his heart
to the tap of my foot on the side walk
i listen –
to her coos, her giggles, her smacking lips
to the tone of his voice, to his culinary artistry
we are in the groove
i embrace the rhythm of my soul
