Still Standing

A former schoolmate of mine posted this picture and asked us to to title it. ‘Broken But Still Standing’. This was the thought that immediately came to mind as I looked at this house. This house that once was a home. Now broken, ignored, void of laughter and life, but still standing. As we celebrateContinue reading “Still Standing”

For Him

Recently I had a conversation with one of my sister girls – about the men in our lives. We talked about our sons. We ended our conversation with the resolve that we believe they will walk into their God-given destiny. They were born for and with a purpose. Men.

I am blessed to be able to feel – feel those emotions that remind me that I am. I am a woman, gentle yet fierce, flawed yetContinue reading “That Year – That Moment”

A Mystery

Day 19- Write about something mysterious. #Bloganuary2022 A wise king once reflected on this in the book of Proverbs: “There are things that amaze me…things I don’t understand… – How a man loves a woman.” [Proverbs 30:18-19] How the heart does what the heart does. That’s mysterious. #bloganuary2022

That Boy…

As I have decided to unpack some of my ‘buried treasures’, I also felt the need to reflect on some of the lessons I learned through the years. I will begin at a point when I first remember ‘walking through something’. As a young teenager, I met a boy who captured my heart. He heldContinue reading “That Boy…”
