Absence Makes My Soul Stronger

Posted by Cheryl Ries on Friday, December 17, 2010, In : Cheryl Ries, Blog 
I've not written for a while, not for lack of thought, but rather for an accidental "drought" of spirit!  I was besieged by a situation which was taking my total energy to concentrate upon the best way to manuever through, around, or over it. 

We all have times like that in our lives, when something more than a speedbump, but rather a major mountain of a problem comes along, one which takes our energy, our joy, our very peace if we let it.  I have spent the last month considering how to keep ...

It's in The Simple Moments

Posted by Cheryl Ries on Wednesday, October 13, 2010, In : Cheryl Ries, Blog 
It is in the simplest moments when our lives are truly definable.  We can either find our peace, by finding our joy, our spirit's contentment, our live's fulfillment . . .or we can deny ourselves all of this by living as slaves to time, to modern society's expectations upon our lives, and by forgetting to stop along our daily pathways to just be.

Just by being in our lives, we can heal many holes which can rip us apart.  We are not victims unless we allow ourselves to be defined that way.  We ...

The Sea of Life

Posted by Cheryl Ries on Tuesday, September 28, 2010, In : Cheryl Ries, Blog 

Life is like a sea, sometimes we are on top of the waves, feeling like surfers tackling our problems and making headway with a big grin for all the success we feel. Other times, the waves are complacent little bobs of nothingness,which although still slight swellings responsible for some motion, which barely take us anywhere and we end up feeling stagnant, like we're stuck. Then every now and then, we get those tsunamis, sometimes even in clusters of multiples, which not only scare us, but ta...

My Thoughts on Humanity . . . the Role of God

Posted by Cheryl Ries on Thursday, September 9, 2010, In : Cheryl Ries, Blog 
As long as we have evil revealed through infertile thoughts, words and deeds of men, we will need to find our comfort and our rest in God's abundant, verdant pastures. - Cheryl Ries, September 9, 2010


We are fast approaching an another anniversary of September 11th, a most notorious day for realizing in modern terms the extent of man's hatred, based on a centuries-old tradition of religious intolerance.  We've seen it played out all too often throughout the history of civilization, as long as ...

About Me


Cheryl Ries I'm Cheryl, and this is my own website home. I've been told since I was a child that I was talented at writing, yet I never took it to heart. I floundered about my entire life, wondering what gifts I had to share with the world. Now, at this stage of the game, I've come to realize that I might have had indications from the earliest years. After many years in several different roles, including retail sales and management, modeling, and entrepreneurial activities, I've decided to let my creative energy flow through my virtual pen, onto the screen's page and this site's blog page. Most recently, I've taken my blogging to www.cherylries-author.com. I'm also in the process of writing, some projects are ready for publication and some have already been published; a few ideas are in various stages of development. Those should be coming to come to fruition very soon! It's an exciting and stimulating time ahead, and this website encourages me to go for it with gusto! So, other than knowing that I'm female, from the desert southwest of the USA and the product of a very stable, happy family life . . . what else would you like to know? More to come on the pages of this website . . . ciao and have a great day!! Cheryl Ries
