MARILYN NEWBURY

I am a writer and speaker with unique perspectives on family, travel, and life's experiences. I laugh at my embarrassing moments, cope with the foibles and eccentricities of those around me, and write humorous and serious reflections on life... No matter what the circumstance, I strive to find beauty in people and nature. As I share my thoughts, I hope to connect with others and give voice to common feelings which draw us together in our family of humanity... A writing colleague wrote about not being ready for Christmas - only one gift purchased, an injured husband, mental stress, a son's illness, no tree, no decorations, and no time. I was feeling the same way.
