The world had to know of this, the greatest untold love story in history. It had to be made into a movie for Hollywood. The world had to know The Young Victoria.

Most of the "new" music I've gotten into this year is actually old music that's never been heard before, dredged up from the vaults just in time to make a buck before recorded music ceases to have any monetary value whatsoever.

As a life coach I recommend that my clients, rather than doing 'iffy' resolutions, take on their schedule and how they spend it. This could have more of an effect on your life than all the resolutions you've ever made.

If you've seen Hair on Broadway, you know how infectiously joyous the cast is and how strong their message of love is. Their energy beams from the orchestra to the nosebleeds in the theater.

Why do such opposite emotions give birth to each other and what is the connection that keeps them alive in this "creative" relationship? Here, I will focus on when love turns to fear.

Some look back on early civilizations and shake their heads at how prudish the times were. Well, not so with the ancient Greeks and Romans. A new ex...

Even on a bad day, Los Angeles will smack you down in a painfully beautiful way, reminiscent of listening to The Smiths for a week straight after being dumped.

I'm not interested in finding a glamorous group of some sort to accept me and white-wash over the places I haven't been willing to do the work around releasing insecurity myself.

I cried from beginning to end at my uncle's funeral, and strangely required no place to hide in a room filled with hundreds of mourners -- perhaps because I was as alone as every person there.
