Coming Home

When all is said and done. And I'm looking back upon the race I've run. When my heart gives in. I know you will be beside me, precious friend. It's just the same from the beginning to the end, When all is said and done. If I lose my way, and I wonder down this open road for days. And if the sun should fall, and the dancing we once did become a crawl. Let the memories move like shadows…

Always Gratitude

I have much gratitude for the momentum of time. It reminds me that the earth is never stagnant, nothing stands still, the sun will always rise, summer will always come, there will always be a yesterday. Everything continues forward along this path of time, sometimes in harmony with it and sometimes struggling to keep up. Whether in peace or friction, there is always a purpose.

She was a server who never let your plate go empty or your drink go dry. She was a 4…

New Season

Spring is here! My scaly skin sees the sun again. Fresh flowers fill the farmers markets. And windows are open with new air. As the calendar flips to a new month, I find myself personally entering a new season in life. I’ve lived through a lot of seasons but all of them had a common theme: busy! For many years I was busy with school. Busy with moving. Busy with boys. Busy with planning my next adventure. Busy trying to be…

Fresh Start

Lord, help me now to unclutter my life, to organize myself in the direction of simplicity. Lord, teach me to listen to my heart; teach me to welcome change, instead of fearing it. Lord, I give You these stirrings inside me, I give you my expectations, I give you my hopes, I give you my desires, I give you all the longings I hold inside. Help me to listen to these signs of change, of growth; to listen seriously and follow where…
