Looking at ourselves and the world through the lens of the 21st century.

Cindy Murray


Hi, I am Cindy Murray, and I guess you could call me the “Crone”. I am married to Mark. I have  two children, Christen and Steven, and one fur-baby, a Great Pyrenees named Sophie. I am a “first-time” grandma to an 11-year-old girl who calls me “Lulu”. 

At the present time, I am a part-time travel agent (yes, we still exist). I also run a small company that operates and promotes crafting events. I work from home and until recently was also the full-time caregiver to my mother, Marie (“Mom”), who has dementia. 

I am a crafter, artist, writer, musician, songwriter, philanthropist, philosopher, seeker, and dreamer. My interests include photography, travel, scrapbooking, tarot, Bible study, and spending time with my family. 

I'm looking forward to sharing my personal experiences in the hope that it will help others cultivate their best lives. One of my favorite quotes right now is this one from Becky Higgins, the creator of Project Life and My Modern Story:

"One day you will tell your story of how you've overcome what you're going through now, and it will become part of someone else's survival guide."
