Never to Late to Realize Your Dream
This was me as a child. I imagined myself on my little flying carpet gathering stories to write down later. But later never came. My family moved so often, that my treasured tales seemed to fly away with the wind. The teachers that encouraged my talent were left behind, and my friends were left behind, […]
Still: My word for 2022
The Eternal will fight on your behalf while you watch in silence. ~Exodus 14:14 (VOICE) I’m not a worrier by nature, but I often find it very difficult to shut down a million random thoughts that choose to twist, jitterbug, and tango through my mind all day and into the night. Does anyone else relate? […]
Remembering: God, Family, and Inspiration
I met the girl in this photo when I was five years old. What I didn’t know then? Her story is a part of my heritage. Before my parents brought me home from the hospital, Dad started a doll collection for his little girl. He purchased a tiny porcelain doll dressed in a pink-smocked dress […]

In these days of COVID-19 lockdowns and social distancing extending far beyond the two weeks to flatten the curve, we’ve had one of our most basic needs stripped from us. Basic needs are usually considered to be water, shelter, […]
Keeping Your Balance in the Midst of COVID-19
Do I dare mention it again? COVID-19 is everywhere. When you’ve put in nearly seven decades of life, you’ve seen shifts in direction in many facets of life and culture. Some are better than others. My life having personally touched lives of those born at least as far back as the 1880’s. I’ve heard first […]
