According to some research, that’s typically the day when most New Year’s resolutions come to an end. Were you named among the masses that quit? A friendContinue reading “Building Towers”
That Happy Place
This piece of art was on my desk with a blank chalkboard-like space. It needed it to come alive with some words that reflected my heart. I gave my very gifted student the words – she created some beautiful lettering. As I watched her, I saw someone who found her happy place. She loved letteringContinue reading “That Happy Place”

Move With Me
Sometimes I feel like walking until I reach the ‘end of me’. When the noise gets too much in my head. The thoughts swirl around like a tornado on a war path – I walk. As nature sings of God’s goodness, I too am led to join in the chorus. The movement of my limbsContinue reading “Move With Me”
Another Day in Waiting
This is sunset in my native country. The day is drawing to an end. Sometimes when things approach their end, we can relax, reflect, and enjoy all that was accomplished. Other times the end brings a lingering sense of disenchantment and disappointment. As the year slows to an end, many are restless with dreams orContinue reading “Another Day in Waiting”
Give Me Both
Being an island girl, I was blessed to have experienced and embraced both the beach and the mountains. I choose not to choose between the two. They both take me to beautiful places in body, mind and heart. Blessed to have attended a high school with a mountain view, I fell in love with theContinue reading “Give Me Both”
