To My WP Family: Recently my plate has been full trying to balance new assignments and things of that nature. I haven’t been present here that much – but I’m not gone. Stay with me. Soon I’ll find my way back ‘home’. Stay With Me Lately I’ve been missing a lotI knowI don’t see youContinue reading “I’ll Find You”

Where I Belong
Ever felt out of place? Too many times to mention. I am female. I am an immigrant. I don’t cuss, smoke nor drink hard liquor. I don’t tolerate the complaining spirit well. I prefer calm to chaos and unwanted noise. Loudness, vulgarity, and abrasiveness tend to make me shrink back. In my world the glassContinue reading “Where I Belong”
Small Yet Mighty
I love our fighting spirit. Our can-do attitude. Our resilience. When asked, we’re always up for wholesome competition. A nation of less than 3 million and smaller in size than every state except two (DE, RI), Jamaica is the ‘little engine that could’. Out of approximately 195 countries in the world, we are 160th inContinue reading “Small Yet Mighty”

Be The One
Speak in such a way that others love to listen to you. And listen in such a way that others love to speak to you ( Zig Ziglar). In this world of chaos, pain, and darkness we can choose to be the difference maker in our sphere of influence. Sometime in the 90s, there wasContinue reading “Be The One”
What If We Begin…
This quote caught my attention this morning: If God could take someone away that you thought you would never lose – imagine the person He could give you that you thought you’d never find. What if we begin to trust God to truly turn the broken pieces into a master piece, the pain into purposeContinue reading “What If We Begin…”
The Remarkable Kind
As a sister girl, the word ‘submission’ can be disconcerting. Why? Your guess is just as good as mine. Maybe it’s because, like many, I hate feeling like a caged bird. It could also be what I’ve observed in human behavior when some are granted power. For some reason, me submitting to you quickly translatesContinue reading “The Remarkable Kind”
Don’t Wait
As we gladly sway into a long Labor Day weekend, take a moment to enjoy the landscape of your current season. It may be one of calm or quite tumultuous. There might be an air of uncertainty plaguing you on many levels. Or, it could be one of promise fulfilled. Yours may be a seasonContinue reading “Don’t Wait”
My Why
With all its meanderings, harsh realities, and unwelcomed trials – I still love life. After being blessed with more than 5 decades, I wake up each day understanding that this is a gift. It’s highly likely that I have more years behind me than ahead. Now I just want to squeeze out as much asContinue reading “My Why”
My Piece of the Garden
A few weeks ago, I spent a few days with my son in his big city high-rise apartment. There was no balcony, no way to connect the outside. There were moments I felt trapped. I mentioned it to him and he laughed. That was his world and he was at peace with it. In thoseContinue reading “My Piece of the Garden”
