How to start writing a five paragraph essay on why you favor sports
Lately I’ve developed a compulsion to write everything down. Stringing words together and composing sentences in the shower, I want to write it all down – remember it – capture it. I stare at people in the subway and craft their character descriptions in my head...
2008 threw me for a loop -- an easier than expected surgery, a stubborn splinter, a fat lady fell into me and broke my knee. And for the grand finale, I got “terminated.” The mundane dailies of my life that are never truly mundane.
But recently this drive to write has got me thinking – if a person feels this strong obligation towards anything – shouldn’t that define their career path? Can the key to career success be to do what you absolutely can’t go without doing? Doctors are driven by medicine and science – they can’t imagine doing anything else. A passion that comes from within – you cannot teach it, recreate it, or fake it.
My last job was a joke. It was like playing office when I was a kid – only I never liked to play office. My sister and her friend, Simona loved to play office. They put a sign on the door, set up piles of papers across her dressers to recreate an office set up and pretended to be on calls, scheduling meetings. They were dead on – oh the things we learned from TV in the late 80s / early 90s. Thank you, Melrose Place. I have spent 13 years in the career world looking for an office that’s one iota as hot.
Maybe we should think back to the things we liked to do in our childhood and use that as a springboard for determining career satisfaction? And if so, I feel stumped. I didn’t play with toys much. I liked to gossip with the adults and contribute my two cents – always wanting my pedestal to give my opinion, provide my latest rant.
And then there were the forms in the TV Guide. I loved filling those out. Only a few lines per card and they always had wide margins. I was able to perfect my handwriting. The ink would flow out from the different pens and I would watch as the thick card inserts soaked up the ink one letter at a time.
So I find myself wondering … what kind of predictor is that? Maybe my blog needs to go paper?

I responded gingerly to that question without reservation. Life is everywhere. If we consider the act of movement and intelligence as signs of life, then life is everywhere and in everything. My dad, Thomas Pomeleo, Jr. many years ago said to me that for anything to exist, it has to be in constant motion. Nothing in existence is void or stagnant; it cannot nor could it exist if it is stagnant or void!

The Bible says that: And the wild-oxen shall come down with them, and the bullocks with the bulls: and their dust will be soaked with fat, gorged with fat and made fat with fatness. This declaration is not mentioned therein in the entire Quran.
My new job has lots of numbers. It's hard for a letters girl to enjoy numbers, but as the boss says, "the analysis runs the business." (Funny, I thought we did.) I'm supposed to be creative, yet I struggle daily - often project-to-project, meeting-to-meeting. There's freedom - but it seems to be confined to a strict box. Like prisoners who get freedom by getting to walk around a yard.
The grass is at its prime in Central Park – just having drunk three days worth of spring showers. Like a fresh haircut, the blades dance in the wind, glints of sun, like glitter, are sprinkled throughout the Great Lawn. Overdressed in my late winter parka, I walk amongst the athletes, the tourists, the private high school kids in phys ed. Children run one step in front of the nannies – yet one step behind the mommies on the Blackberries.
I never called myself a writer. I never thought I was good enough – clearly limiting myself only by my own battle with perfectionism. I pursued 12-year career in advertising where writing was the PS – rather not the body – of my life. Finally, they fired me and I found myself in a moment of mental liberation. I was forced into a crossroads of low risk and nothing to lose. With fear eliminated from the equation, I took a chance. I decided that yes I was going to define myself as a writer.

Love begins with a heart balloon.
9/11 as a number, when spoken out loud, has become redefined. For most Americans, visually 9-1-1 has always symbolized emergency. After September 11th, 2001, 9/11 represented a day that surpassed emergency. It became a day I wouldn’t forget as it happened in real time. Soon it evolved into my generation’s JFK question: “Where were you on 9/11?”
I was walking near Lincoln Center about a week after I got fired. The weather was glorious and I felt like every breath I took brought me higher and higher. I wanted to hug everyone harder and harder. I had a glow. I was in love with every morsel of life and I finally had time to taste every bite. My six-year-old son and I were skipping down the Upper West Side when I noticed a familiar face walking beside me. It was Mr. G, a seasoned weatherman (couldn’t resist the pun). I don’t watch the weat
"How old are you mommy,” my six-year-old asked me recently. I’ve told him before but it must have been in another context. He’s asking for another reason. I’m not sure why. “34,” I answer. “That’s old,” he says.
